Hacking Super Mario Galaxy (PAL)

[Jamirou]

Hi! I have semibricked wii and i was wondering does SMG PAL-version contain 3.1e update?

 

[kedest]

Well at least some kind of update. I didn't check the version number, but I had to update before it let me play the game

 

[Jamirou]

Yes!

I updated my console with WIZARDS release and it normalized my console!


Version: 3.0E

It contains a 3.0E update.

Actually, it does change the firmware version. Didn't change yours because it changes to 3.0e, since you already had that one, no changes were made. I had 2.2e and after the update with Mario Galaxy my firmware version was 3.0e, i also read somewhere that semibricked wii's will recover after updating with Mario Galaxy but can't confirm it.

 

[Jamirou]

Yup.

I semibricked my wii with GH3 and SMG recovered it.

Nice to know Jamirou =)

Glad you got it working also! =)

Can someone explain how this works? My last information about bricked Wii consoles is, that u can't get past
the Health Screen, because the system can't find the right language files.
So, how is it possible to "repair" this with SMG when the console doesn't boot up?

these type of consoles cannot be fixed i think. you could try holding + and - on the controller to trigger maintenance mode.

the 'brick' consoles people are talking about here is when you cannot access the settings page of your wii anymore.
super mario galaxy will fix this 'brick' by using the update included on the disc

Ah, i see. Thanks

Never heard of this "menu brick" before.
