Can anyone explain to me why you need to run the game's update exactly? Isn't running an NTSC update on a PAL wii something you should never do?

I think SMG won't start without the update, but if you pull the plug at 10% like with MP3 the game thinks you have the latest update or something. And if the update for you region comes out, it overrides the files from the 10% trick.

yeah dont think you can do that with 1.9g?

anyway i ran the recovery disc and nothing has happened. Its just weird why mario started to work, brough up an system error (had to take PSU out manually) and now my backups dont work.

Guess Ill have to open the Wii up when Im back home and see whats going on. Ive got more wiikeys , so if it fudged its no biggie i guess.

Thanks to everybody's advice I've revised my plan for SMG:

[Current situation: PAL wii 3.0E with wiikey 1.9g updated]

1. Wait til I can update my PAL wii to 3.1E (go to my mate's house tomorrow)

2. Download SMG (done), extract iso and burn. No regionfrii, no brickblocker.

3. Insert disc, start SMG update, unplug at 10%.

4. Restart wii. Play SMG.

5. Mid-November, download PAL SMG and run PAL update.


Is there anything I'm missing out ?(still not too sure whether regionfrii should or shouldn't be used)

Don't forget to apply the brickblocker to the 2nd copy.
