assumptions I'm making before my question:
-opera bricks are the "region-swap-then-wii-tries-to-run-initial-setup" bricks..? (Can be corrupt setting.txt)
-banner bricks are what they are
question:
so then, is this in fact, as I originally stated, "one step above" starfall, so to speak? because I thought you
could not fix the opera error with starfall,
and if you CAN fix them with starfall...
and you have already been invasive by installing a modchip...
then theres no reason to buy this over installing starfall (unless of course you didn't have starfall already installed),
correct?
no rush for an answer
Well, there's only 2 ways to get a region brick.
1) You already have a semi brick and you make it do something stupid by other means.
2) You are installing a new system menu and it fucks itself up.
If you're at the point where you can do things like install Starfall, I have no idea why you'd do #1 when you can fix your semi bricks a number of ways.
As for #2, as implied by the definition, you'd be installing a new system menu. Starfall is installed as an in-place patch to the system menu. i.e.
Installing a new system menu overwrites a starfall patched one.
So it's not so much of starfall not fixing region bricks, it's just the difficulty of getting them when you have starfall installed.
As for the "usefulness" assessment, that's pretty accurate. SaveMii is really only for people who have already-bricked Wiis. You wouldn't really have a need to buy one to sit around to wait for a brick. If you're at the point where you've heard of SaveMii, you're at the point where you can research how not to brick your Wii. Focus on that instead.
