Hacking SSBB never worked, never will ?

[Jinkolite]

hey people, i was just wondering has any one else had a wii that refuses to boot
super smash bros brawl both retail and copies ?

For some strange reason i have tryed multiple retail copies of super smash bros
and none have worked, brand new or not. I even tryed to boot a retail copy through
waninkoko's back up loader. it was a no go. i tried a copy too and it refused to work
also, any one else had the same problem or know how to get around it?

What modchip you using? my brothers wii is Wikey with 1.9g so he cant play either, mine is 1.9s and I Play the retail one fine

Do you have a wiikey? It needs to be updated to the latest version before it'll play SSBB original.

Are you running 3.3? Are your copies trucha signed? This could be why they don't work. Have you tried Gecko OS?

It is possible that you have one of the drives that doesn't play nicely with dual layer discs. If this is the case, you could buy a new laser assembly for it.

lol no guys i dont have a chip, i only have tryed the back ups on the back up loaders and actual retail copies brought from the shop.

Then your laser has problems with Dual Layer, you will need a new laser to be able to play it. dont know if nintendo fix it or anything though.

i think you have one of the wiis with a bad adjusted laser. follow the following tutorial or sent your wii to nintendo. they will replace your drive or tweak your laser for free. it's a well know issue. sent just your wii in with a short description of your problem.

Thats pretty unfair on my behalf, i brought the wii expecially for that game. Hmmm just my luck.
I shouldnt have to buy a new laser for a game that should work on my wii fine and dandy, any
one had luck in asking nintendo to fix this problem for them ?

If you haven't tampered with your wii (ie opened it) Nintendo will fix this for you.

 

[Screemer]

you don't have to buy anything. the tweaking/replacement of the drive is absolutely free, even if your wii has exeeded its warranty period.

if i am right you are living in the uk, so take a look at the following page: http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/news/2...ation_8780.html

if u live in the states or canada take a look at that: http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/repair/re...orm_us_ssbb.jsp

Doh ! i just noticed the 'even if your warrenty has exceeded part.' thanks.

My luck, the crackhead i brought it from removed the serial tab. KMT.

get a triwing screwdriver and open your wii
gently blow in all areas surrounding the lens area, if you have a disc lens cleaning kit, use it carefully

most of the problems were just dirty lenses.
if you really need a lens adjustment there are tutorials for it.

Nintendo will fix your Wii even if you have opened it. . Opening the Wii does not void the warrenty

but nintendo want the serial code on the bottom of the wii, which i dont have ...
