Wii #0635 - Mario Kart (Europe)

[Mailenste]

Game is running fine on 1.9s Wiikey on PAL Wii 3.2E but if I want to install the Mario Kart Wii Channel it gives me a black screen. Have to turn off the console every time!

To the people saying there is a problem with the Itsreal newsgroup release, how can that be fixed? part 28, 30 and 31 wont download for me, they have errors

download the pars and use them to repair the archives.

if there are pars...

I found the pars for it. Cheers

Installed the Mario kart channel, works perfectly.

It really sucks theres no 1v1 or free-for-all battle modes...who wants to play against stupid AI opponents?

How can there be no way to JUST battle with a friend...

Since this game isn't supposed to come out before friday, can't Nintendo see you
have an illegal copy when you connect to the online part of Mario Kart?
They then have your Wii-number and you will never be able to connect to any server at all!!

Some people are allowed to have this already ... reviewers, retailers, loads of people ... they do not have a list of ho has it, so when people are playing it, they do not block them or anything, because for all they know, it's legit.

 

[Scoobos]

no, I preordered this in the UK and it arrived this morning.
Therefore I'm playing a legit copy before launch, I'm sure they won't ban me.

Anyone downloading this, in my opinion is an enemy of Nintendo. It's available right now (you could have it tomorrow if you order online today with Game) and here we are with hundreds of people stealing it.

In 1 month no doubt some slime will have hacked the ISO to put hacks in there and ruin it for those that paid their money.

SLOW USENET?!
Problem usual is your ISP throttling speeds based on port and connection type!

Here's a few ideas to get round this dirty ISP trick...

1. Change you port number.
You are best checking what ports your provider allows, but most allow 23 and 80

2. Go Secure.
I'd recommend this anyway, especially with all the increased busts of downloaders.
Getting a Secure Socket Layer account beats most ISP throttling, and by is
256-bit (usually) secure!
For this you will need to BUY a SSL account from your usenet provider...
Also need a SSL compatible reader - Newsleecher works well
Change port to 443 or 563 (ISPs sometimes throttle 443 I've found)

3. Go to you local library / university with public access...
Install Newsleecher or similar onto a Ipod, memory stick, etc.
Go leech at speeds of 7MB/s+
I find you almost always need to use port 563 with a SSL Usenet Account.

4. Change Usenet provider!
There are many well advertised providers who charge way to much!
You should pay $19.99 a month or less for UNLIMITED!
Get 12 connections, SSL 256-bit for $19.99 is you hunt around!

I would put up who I use, but don't want this to look like an advert!

It will depend on your ISP, Bandwidth and if your are subject to "traffic management". I can get 1300kbs - 1900kbs currently its on about 1400kbs with about 45mins left....BTW It's port 119 for usenet clients....

At last a reason to dust off my Wii!!!

yep, thats my default port 119, and i still get crappy speeds, its my ISP shaping me anyway

and what is your download speed in KB/s not kbs.

If your provider offers alternate ports or SSL use that. Port 8080 was an improvement, but I'm using SSL now with a different provider for my lines full speed.

unlike websites, newsgroups servers are leeching each others to fill up there own server... so even if you are on the same group it dosen't mean you are leeching from the same server...

I found the release, registered on the site and started downloading: 0 connections

While the site said it should work after regging.

At least you got record that you were once World Champ.
