I thought the front page said tomorrow at midnight? nevermind just check it and it says

"Update1: 00:14 AM This is now in effect. RL gets in the way sometimes. There will be another update when it's finished. "

I wish they didn't open registrations..I don't want it to go down like oink..

I wouldn't think that would matter. Wasn't oink invite only? And then what, they got shut down anyway, right?

Well BC has a user limit as to how many members it can have at one time. So, that keeps it down and quiet. They are also pretty strict when it comes to posting, ratios, and such..So, I think we'll be ok. It's just that the more people that are part of something the more people know about it, obviously..

Yeah but I'm pretty sure none of these trackers are under the radar. I mean, I figure most companies already have moles already all over sites like this, but no one thinks twice about tracker talk etc.

I can confirm what other have already confirmed. The Metroid turn-off trick does indeed work. No duplicate channels and no corrupt Wii system settings menu.

As always you MUST be on the latest Wii firmware, in this case 3.1E before attempting to do this or you will corrupt your settings.

But yes it does work, no worries.

Tested on:

PAL Wii
3.1E
Wiikey

holy moly, still no update from Wiikey,

I say holy moly!

Hi Opium,

Ok so you are saying that it works,Have you tried it yourself?
If your are correct then i can run super mario galaxy ntsc on my pal wii with wiikey and firmware 3.1e and it will work fine once the metroid prime trick is done at about 15% is this correct?

Cheers Shane

Yes, that's correct. I just did it myself less than an hour ago.

Rubish, the Metroid trick has been confirmed not to work and how could u have tested it on your WiiKey with out the new firmware

 

[shane1972]

Hi Opium,

So please correct me if this is wrong.
I burn 1 copy as normal and 1 copy with wii brick blocker.
I put the normal 1 in and allow to update then turn off at about 15%.
I then put the 1 with wii brick blocker in and play away.

Cheers Shane

@pain - uh... he tested it? how couldn't he test it?

@opium - i can't read through all 123 pages, any word if it works on ntsc wii's?

Uhh.. are you really going to argue with a mod on this point?

 

[gram]

I remember reading earlier in this post that it didn't work. Apparently people had tested it on several different levels of the update without success. So what have you done different to make it work ?

 

[Bob Loblaw]

You can still run the super mario update with wiikey.
you just can't play the game after because it detects the game is burnt.
The channels come from the update. Unles you do the trick as Opium said so you don't get them.

NTSC wii's won't get dupe channels because it's an NTSC game

hehe

 

[Xuphor]

didn't mean the channels. if i do what opium said exactly by the word on a ntsc wii with wiikey, would mario galaxy work?

The metroid turn off trick does indeed work to avoid duplicate channels. I know because I have done it. Why would I need a new Wiikey firmware to test that?

That's correct. But you still can't play the game. You will get to the error 001 screen that says the game detected an unauthorised device. You need to wait for a wiikey update to play the game. But you can indeed avoid duplicate channels with the metroid turn off trick.

This is only for PAL Wii's to avoid getting duplicate channels when running Mario Galaxy. You still can't play the game. NTSC Wii's should just let the game update run through and install.
