Wii #0239 - Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (USA)

[Redsquirrel]

i never even got the weather preview, im guessing when i did the pokemon update something fudged up. I never use it anyway...

 

[Redsquirrel]

and nintendo will NOT BRICK WIIS on purpose. Sure, they might allow copies not to run. But breaking the whole system on purpose? unlikely.

 

[Innes]

my theory is, that nintendo havent found out a funky new way of detecting those with modchips, seriously why would they let us know they know by having duplicate channels, its just a wonky mish mash of code thats clashed with the 3.0e update.

 

[kristijan08]

we need a new version of wii brick blocker to account for the dummy size of the 3.0U update! someone wanna get onto that

 

[Innes]

i cant believe the wiibrickblocker guy is on holiday! what luck!

 

[Vater Unser]

So, isn't it possible to delete the duplicate channels the game will create?

 

[Cocytean]

No, it's not possible. Any news for the NTSC-J owners yet? I'm going to start watching Resident Evil 2: Apocalypse in protest at the lack of assistance for us poor people. Please pity me and don't let me get too far into this movie, or I may jump out of the window before ever getting a chance to play Corruption

 

[Keylogger]

The game is multi langages. Mine is in French

I thought I read a few pages back confirm of NTSC-J owners working.
Blackcats also had posts about it working on NTSC-J. Not sure about dupe channels though

 

[Cocytean]

Yeah, I saw that guy too Xen, but he didn't exactly fill his post with huge detail. Either he's already hooked to the game, or he's someone who's trying to mess with the Japanese Wii owners. Thanks for only letting me get 5 mins into the film though, it's truly awful. *presses play again until someone confirms NTSC-J compatibility*

 

[Vulpix]

The controls are fantastic. It's comfortable and easier to mess around with compared to Red Steel.

For the most part the game's awesome. I got stuck though last night, it might have been just me, but I swear the game had a bug. After you get your phazon powers, you go to Bryyn (I think) and you gotta go up and to the left to some ship to access info, but if you go to the right, you're screwed. You don't have what you need to get out of the room.

It could be just that I was tired, and wasn't noticing some thing, but it really sucked to run around a room for 30 minutes trying to get out. It's not like it killed the game, there was no save point anywhere in the room, so I don't have to start all the way over. I just thought they'd make sure stuff like that doesn't happen..

Well come on. They only had a whole year to just polish the game. Have some realistic expectations.

 

[Tomobobo]

No I know, believe me, that was all I was thinking when I was running around this room. All the quotes of Reggie saying "We wanted to give retro studios time to really make this an awesome single player experience". As I'm falling into a hole trying to see if I can make that impossible jump because I don't have a grapple to swing from...

You might want to be aware that the game contacts a nintendo-owned ip everytime you finish a level or beat a level since the game uses the new medal systems that ties your wii with an achievement system that works with your online profile. It happens when you beat the first monster in the hangar.

Beware if you play that release before the street date

 

[Innes]

whers this so called acheivement online profile?

 

[ZeiggiM]

If your a 2.2U user, it'll begin an update to 3.0U.

If your a 2.2E user, it'll update and brick your console.



As long as you've updated to your region before you play it, your fine.

I've got 2.2u, the moment i put the disk in, it said please update. Hit ok, updated/reset. Checked the firmware version....still 2.2u

It does not Update to 3.0U. Everything is the same.

Shit, I'd been planning on beating MP2 first before I played this one, but I don't think I can hold off.
