is there any news of an english leak yet? if I got the real copy of brawl it wouldn't work cause of wiikey


Yeah I'd like to know too. Does anyone know how/if the release groups communicate with the public? It would really be great to know if someone has already started ripping it. As it is I just keep obsessively refreshing gbatemp and wiinewz.

Wiikey team stopped trying when they found out the backup worked. That is why they made the chip... for "backups".

Hopefully, they come back and release a new FW before or on the day of the release.

I know what they made the chip for but when it interferes with real games then we got a problem.


Got it now?
Because wiikey is made for backups. You can always buy the game and play backup version of it. It's the same after all.

Yeah, this is ridculous, the scene is slacking off a bit if people that don't have the slightest clue when it comes to this stuff ("Yeah, I have a Wiikey") come up with copies of SSBB a week before release, but people who actually make a living from obtaining games pre-release can't. If this can be obtained by Jose Mexican and Francois European, then this has to be out there on the net...

rest assured, it's been sent over the net plenty, there just isn't an official release and those who do have it aren't sharing (yet)

People, don't blow your cells just waiting for this game, even if a dumper does get this game on release it takes a minimum of 40 hours to DUMP the game alone, then it comes to uploading a 8.5GB file.

Also the layer break will be different. So there will be some initial errors for the first round of people getting it.

For the J release, there didn't seem to be any layerbreak, or that is to say, imgburn burned the .iso straight without any extra information. What's that about?

Actually to be more technical,

The dumper actually extracts raw memory dumps of the disc a tiny bit at a time. The software then reads these memory dumps and places them into a file. Then it calls the memory dumper again. This goes on for 85 billion times.

Its not a linear read like a standard DVD.

^^Seriously...
I mean, with all the things we learnt with the recent release of the Trucha Signer, I would've thought that the Wiikey team would have used that info to create an update that would fix this issue.

I mean, it probably takes them like 5-10 minutes to create a new FW.

If you aren't going to release a FW, release the damn source so others can!!!

Oh and wouldn't it be smart to release a DVD5 and a DVD9? A DVD5 to swap for those with the Wiikey, and a DVD9 for those who want to play the full backup.

not really because if you have the 9 you can separate the layers anyways

No point in making a dvd5 if the dvd9 works perfectly.

By the way, couldn't they make a dumper that work with all drives and not just LG? would help release games like this faster.
