3.0E, Latest system version (Did a system update before trying this)
PAL system, Wiinja Deluxe.
I just made a BrickBlocked DVD and a RegionFrii one. I ran the brickblocked to check if I got a black screen, disc could not be read (I think its cause i didn't use regionfrii on it..) and anyway then I ran regionfrii disc and unplugged, everything is working a-ok apart from metroid, which I am burning again with brickblocker AND regionfrii. will post results.

update: Made a DVD with both, regionfrii and brickblocker works perfect.

Well the strangest thing has happened to me. Did the 'pull the power out' trick and I'm left with duplicate weather channel but not news channel. Im using PAL wii with 3.0E firmware and Wiinja Deluxe

Okay, I'm pretty sure I did everything properly, no duplicate channels... I put in the brick blocked disc and it loads. Press start and it says 'Metroid Prime 3: Corruption' then comes up with an error.

Did anyone tried update to 3.0E after the MP3 update trick with a 2.2E console? Please tell me. I just wonder whether the update function is really normal after doing the trick.

Uhhh.... I used WiiBrickBlocker, and got the black screen each boot on multiple burns. However, is there a way to UNDO the patch? :S Or do I have to download it again

Really pissed off bout this! Thanks for your help anyone that can help!

I have an Aussie Launch Wii on 3.0e, I did Wii BrickBlocker right after I downloaded it (as I do with all my Wii games) and did not think I would have any issues... Is it possible that a "Dummy" image containing only the update would be suitable? Or do I just have to wait for the Pal release? Apparently in Australia we are not getting MP3 till november! Is there an earlier release date for the UK or europe?

Thanks again !

So is there a recommended way to play this game already on a PAL wii?.

I got a pal wii, with 2.2E . What should i do ? Update to 3.0E first? Play using the brickblocker or the other version? Also what about completing the game? I read on the wiki:

QUOTE said:
Console needs to be 3.0E. Couple of display problems, button selection doesn't match cursor position when saving in game, etc. Problem to progress in the game after getting the PED suit

So even if you get the game running you still get stuck at a certain point? Or is there a way to get around that?

Can someone just write a guide and stick it in the first post or whatever?

Works fine on a PAL Wii with WiiKey and firmware 2.2E. I did the disc thing and powered off the Wii during the update. No duplicate channels. No errors. It's working nicely. I burned the game at 4x as well.

Such an awesome game!

I have 2.1E firmware. Did the un-plug trick with Metroid Prime 3 update.

Game works however my settings are gone now - so i have semi-bricked my wii.

Anyone else have this problem? I dont think it bothers me too much as i can always use a game in the near future to update the firmware (i dont have the internet for wii).

Just wanted to let everyone know.

Why don't you run the update? You're in the USA, you have nothing to worry about... I don't get why people won't run updates in their own region... it makes little sense to me why people still have sub 3.0 firmware on their Wiis... it's not like there's going to be an exploit found...
