you just need to update to FW 4.2, than you can play with your Wiikey from Disc-Channel.

But as you use old Softmods, i don't know if its save to Update...

Any ideas what update is on the disk? I've got 4.2E on the wii, both softmodded and hard modded. Disk channel says there's an update so I've had to run it through neogamma, but would rather not have to.

Strange to think this is the first time in 3 generations of Nintendo consoles (since the SNES) that 2 proper mario games have come out on the same system!

ok to answer the savefile question (especially for the german fellows) yes its compatible, just tried it out

are you sure? just started the pal version for the first time and it doesn't recognize my ntsc savestate.

how did you achive it?

ok you need the FE 100 program, which also includes Xyzzy an app for hbc which you will run first, it will create a keys.txt which you will need later then you have to go to your wii options and copy a savefile from wii to sd (doesnt matter which one, i took the twilight princess save file). In this FE 100 package is a program called Key Grabber.exe, which youll run.
First you have to click on „Get stuff from Interwebz“ then 3 lines should be filled out.
Next you click on "Get stuff from a savefile“ and search for your data.bin save file which is in SD:\private\wii\title\RZDE (RZDE is the ID of twilight princess here, if you choose another game its the id of that game you have to look in).
When youve done that click on „Get stuff from xyzzy key dump or nand backup“ and choose your keys.txt which is on the root of your SD Card (which youve gotten by using Xyzyy).
Now all lines should be filled out and you can click on "Make me happy".

EDIT: I should add that this procedure only needs to be done once, in case you wanna try this with other games as well.
So again, the procedure above only needs to be done once. You just need to do the steps beneath for further games.

Now your are able to pack and unpack every save game file.
So now copy your Super Mario Galaxy 2 save game file to your sd card you will find it in SD:\private\wii\title\SB4E.
After that you run FE100.exe on your computer and browse your Super Mario Galaxy 2 save file (line 1). then hit the button unpack it. You will find a new folder in your FE100 Folder called "0001000053423445".
The last 2 digits indicate that the save file is NTSC you just have to rename it to "0001000053423450" since 50 stands for PAL.
Now go to FE100.exe again and browse your "Unpacked Savefile folder" (second line) which is (in this case) "0001000053423450" now. and hit the "pack savefile button.
Now a new data.bin has been created in your FE100 folder.
Next create a new folder on your sd card in SD:\private\wii\title which is called SB4P and put your new data.bin in this folder. You might want to move the SB4E folder onto your pc, because it could be confusing if you see 2 Super Mario Galaxy 2 Save files.
In order for the savefile to work you need to have played the PAL version once for it to create the save file.
Then you go to the Wii options again and delete the PAL savefile from your wii.
Afterwards you copy over the newly created PAL savefile over to your wii from your SD card.
Everything should be as it was with your NTSC game.

EDIT: You might want to Consider that the folder names will vary for other games and only the last 2 digits are probably the same (I cant confirm that). You also might want to have a look inside the folder. Sometimes there is a file in it with the ID of a game. So you need to change that into the ID of the other regions game. And this doesnt work for all games, but for alot it does.

Hope it wasnt too confusing. The text is long but the procedure is very easy

Thanks fudgi, this worked for me converting a NTSC data.bin to a PAL saved. Don't know how as I would have thought some gameid change was required but hey, it worked so thanks again.

does anyone of you know, why mario brings back power items to the ship? and for example the rock power up, after i got the star in a level where the rock power up has been used, he didnt bring it back... i dont really get the meaning of all this heh

 

[Tekky]

I'm going to buy this game today because it's a true masterpiece.

Is there a way to block the firmware update on the disc?

I'm still running 4.0E and have a wiikey.

 

[Raylene2K7]

Is there a way to block the firmware update on the disc?

sure, start it by using a loader (like NeoGamma)

This is such an amazing game, why Nintendo doesn't integrate a new anti-piracy-methode inside it?
