Again on my PAL Wii

PES 2008 (PAL)
-works, intro is laggy, loading times are good... gameplay good - I play 30 minutes without any problem...

 

[KaiUno]

PAL SSB:B on a PAL Wii written on Philips DVD+R DL boots, gives a loading screen, gives the warning screens about the wrist strap, lets me create a save game, then goes to black and won't respond.

 

[kvp1192]

wait so how should we do it? i have star wars force unleashed PAL, should i patch, then regionfrii, then brickblock? or regionfrii, brickblock, then patch?

 

[jinxvorheeze]

Go with the later of the two

At this point its all about trial and error

 

[kvp1192]

alright, thanks..also i guess i could tell yall

Top Spin 3 PAL works on NTSC wii w/HDTV/Component cables

 

[Perceptions]

To whoever tested Super Mario Galaxy(PAL); how long did you play for? I can create a save, get past the opening scene, to in game. While running to the castle, the game goes to a black loading screen, but even after even 5 minutes, nothing happens.

Burnt on a Verbatim, 4x speed.

 

[Glisern]

Quick question. If i were to download a NTCS game, and patch it. Would it then work on a PAL Wii, or will the region locks remain?

 

[kvp1192]

hey im just wondering, can my NTSC wii take PAL save games?

Burn at 2x or 3x

 

[kvp1192]

again, i never got an answer..does the Write speed, how ever fast u burn it, really even matter?i thought it was the read speed of the wii that was limited

 

[playallday]

YES IT DOES!!!! Burn at x2.4!

 

[Grandta]

Has anyone tested gamecube games?

 

[Arm the Homeless]

Is there a Linux patching tool yet?

Wine sucks.

 

[kvp1192]

lol really? cuz i burned my top spin backup at Max, like around 16x i think, and it runs just fine..

Better be safe than sorry... I burnt mine at 4x.

 

[HaloBenish]

Will using component cables on a Standard TV (in a Y Cb Cr port) fix the black and white, if so I'll get some.

EDIT: Guitar Hero is also unplayable because note chart skips like crazy.
