I'm glad Mario Party 8 doesn't work on PAL Wii's or Wiierd would patch it and claim they found a PAL version in a cold and dark place (their ass).

I would have prefered a working patched version instead of nothing except a month to wait for this great game

PAL owners RARELY get releases before the US and other regions, so if anything we're lucky to have something released first and every right to whine when it doesn't

Pretty sure that's a false one.

Obviously Vortex does the same stupid fake release thing as Wiierd, since that's exactly what they did with the "NTSC" Strikers release.

Any NTSC-U players on here? It runs slow as hell on my Wiikey. Massive load times between every single action that takes place in the game. It's pretty much unplayable as-is. I burned it the same as I've burned every other Wii/Gamecube game I've got - 16x on Verbatims. Lite-On burner. Never had any problems before.

I'm going to try burning it slower, but I don't have a lot of hope considering how absolutely horrible the last attempt was.

Oh, and this is the only Wii game I've played with no widescreen support in any way, shape or form. Way to go Nintendo. An official, first-party title is the one with cruddy hardware support...

I have no problems with Taiyo Yuden DVD-R burned at 8x.

Non-widescreen! o_0

What a pile of crap, I was expecting this to be a party game that I bust out when I have some mates round, it's going to look like junk on my TV if there is no widescreen support.


EDIT - This review from IGN confirms no-widescreen -

IGN Mario Party 8 Review

They also give the game a very crappy score of 5.2.....

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

    @SylverReZ where do u lurk
  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
