Hacking OKAMI

[Wiiiiiiii]

hi guys ^^

i just wondering, i have a Japanese wii with wiikey

is it able to play a real PAL version Okami?

I know people say it not region compatible, but my wii plays metroid prime corruption PAL (real) ok without semi bricking it

Why not. If it plays other PAL games, it should play Okami.

Update your WiiKey to 1.9s and set the "Block Updates" and "Dev Mode" on in the Config Disc, and it shouldn't ask you to update

BTW, what version is your Wii?

 

[Wiiiiiiii]

um i bought my wii in august this year so i guess pretty new? it came with the wii silicon jacket

So it must be on 3.2 or 3.3. Yeah, you should be fine.

You'd be better installing the Homebrew Channel and Starfall on your Wii, though

And maybe GeckoOS (it's a nice App which skips updates in games and runs other regions games better on your Wii)

to update wiikey u download from website right? then burn onto a disk?

 

[Wiiiiiiii]

ive heard peopel talking about homebrew channel and starfall, i just dunno what it is

also my wii can play homebrew games i think so long as it is on NTSC disks.

Exactly

Remember to upgrade first, then run the Config disc (obviously

) ^^

 

[Wiiiiiiii]

config disk?

all this stuff is confusing meh =[

is okami on JAP disks? i think ill just get one of those to avoid bricking my wii

 

[raulpica]

Okami hasn't been released in Japan yet, and I dunno if it'll ever be released.

If upgrading your Wiikey seems confusing, just install the Homebrew Channel. If you're on 3.2, you can simply use the selfinstalling ISO

Using homebrew after that is pretty straight forward

 

[Wiiiiiiii]

And u know 100% that that makes a real Okami PAL work on a JAP wii?

Playing with out of region disks can brick your wii? Since when? Someone should link me a case of this happening

 

[Wiiiiiiii]

i think some updates can brick wii.

but im not sure since im not knowledgeable about advance wii stuffs XD

 

[EmperorOfCanada]

Oh. Well then why would you update? You know when it pops up and asks if you want to update? Dont click yes. Turn off wii. Eject disk. = No brick
