Wii #2712 - Kirby's Return to Dreamland (USA)

[bkg73123]

OK just to follow up.
The save features and bonus levels work fine.
I got it working with
4.3U
cIOS d2x v7 base 56 in slot 249 Rev21
USB Loader GX (latest rev)
I may or may not have to have forced NTSC i dont remember.

Small update that may be useful to those still having problems with this game: i think it only runs from WBFS partition. I tried all kinds of loaders, cios and ios versions but never got it to work. I was running from a FAT32 formatted drive as my wbfs drive was full. Then copied the iso to the wbfs drive and it run without a problem. It even runs using cfg usb loader now.

Why are people having problems with playing it with the USA console? I thought it's PAL/NTSC problem?

I have the Japanese original disc and it won't play on the PAL system.

Hello, I have a 3.2j wii. I have tried everything, updated USB loader GX and installed the cIOS d2x v6 base 56 in slot 249, also tried cfg loader v70 and different combination of ios. No good, it freezes in white screen right after opening. I burned on a dvd and tried, but no luck. However the burned copy worked flawlessly in a friend's 4.3U wii. Later did some research and found that, I need to uncheck force English language setting in usb loader gx and set English language in wii setting. Unfortunately mine is a Japanese import wii, and don't have English language change option menu. Is there any other way to play this game? I would really appreciate any help. Thx.

I have the same problem as Bhutan. Does Anyone have the solution for Japanese wii

Looks like m249 works to get past the title screen error.

I shall try a European PAL version and post it here what happens.

Nope, same white freeze screen. I'll try to find a Japanese copy.

On the level where you plug the volcano with snowball Kirby, the game freezes on me every time just as the ice on the Volcano shatters, anyone else have this problem? Using latest CFG, ios 250.

My Wii is running the game with no problem, except that when I enter the Onion Ocean world the game keep saving forever then I can't even move or do anything else. Does anyone have the same problem or a solution? (running the game through CFG loader, with 249 ios)

I got around to install D2XCIOS v7beta2 to my Wii, installed it over the CIOS stub that was in 249.
Now USB loader GX r1133 can play the game without a fault, same for Configurable.

I know this is old, but I have to ask: Where can I find D2XCIOS v7beta2?

ModMii, Download Page 4. Type "BETA" and select the latest version. Then type "REC" to select the recommended cIOSes, type "d" to download them and type "y" on the next screen to confirm.

Hello everyone, I am new to modding wii (kind of). I modded mine a while ago and now I am trying to play Kirby but I don't understand how to make it work. I finally stumbled upon Pimp My Wii and it downloaded any new wads that I needed and updated them, so Kirby at least got started for me. But now I keep having to talk to Magolor and it keeps freezing in the same spot (while talking to him). I see people keep talking about games normally playing off of 249, but my games normally play off of 224mload (cfg loader 70) Any help is greatly appreciated, I am sure I am on the right track but I need some light my way ty my email is [email protected] and my name is Ray. Just in case my email will not display correctly since I am new, here it is again jstrayy at gmail dot come thank you guys, I am going crazy :'(

Hi everyone. Can someone still help me from running this game? This game used to work on my Wii but ever since I made an update on my Wii using ModMii, it already stopped working.

If you don't mind, I made a syscheck of my system: http://syscheck.softwii.de/VS1xvMLi

I tried running both in CFGLoader or USBLoaderGX and it won't work on d2x6 56 (249). I tried 250, 222-mload and 223-mload as well but it just gives me a black screen on startup.

Please help!!!

You should probably ask in the Wii Backup Loader section. Not many people from the Wii area visit this section.

Either way, make sure the USB loader itself is also up to date. An old USB loader may not work with the newer cIOSs.
The game requires a cIOS with base 56, so your 249 should be the correct one.
