1. Most games take around a week to be dumped unless there is eager anticipation for it (like Gyrostarr in the past or Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People in the future).
2. Based on the reviews so far, this game apparently sucks. Bad.

I don't expect it to be dumped anytime soon. It's probably a blessing in disguise. I'd rather people who normally dump WiiWare games save up their points for things like Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People. That is supposed to be released sometime this month.

Where is My Pokemon Ranch (Europe)?

Where is My Pokemon Ranch (Europe)?

Last time I checked, the UK version of My Pokémon Ranch was released but never dumped. Instead, the US version was just patched with Freethewads to work on PAL Wii's.

Update: Both SPOGS Racing and Major League Eating: The Game have been released in the United States, but neither of them have been dumped. Major League Eating: The Game is expected to be dumped sometime this week. SPOGS Racing was apparently so bad that I am unable to guess when it will be dumped.

Blue Oasis (JPN release of Wii Aquarium) was dumped yesterday

- Region Free Patch doesn't work
- *.dol Patch is atm not possible (Lz78 or other compression and i don't know how to unpack that)

so it doesn't work for USA/PAL Consoles.

i cant find these anywhere.

i got Blue Oasis to work on PAL, here how to do it:

- get wwcxtool.exe from http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=95479
- unpack WAD with your favorite wad un/packer
- use wwcxtool.exe to uncompress 00000001.APP

- use Generic Wii Patcher or the other tools from http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=95479 to patch the *.dol, this needs to be patched:
-- 001 Error (when you wanna load it from ISO on old chips)
-- NTSC-2-PAL Patch for PAL 50 users
-- Language Override to "English (EN)"
-- "JPN" Language String to "EUR" or "USA"

- patch TITLE.TMD to region free and correct the values for 00000001.APP (you don't need to recompress it, it's just 1 MB more...)
- re-pack wad, install it and have fun.

the Text is all SHIFT-JIS so it looks like garbage but the game works.

 

[samsam12]

where did you find blue oasis, i cant find it anywhere. im not asking for it, i just want to know where you got it

I understood everything up until that point and you lost me there, can you explain that in more detail please. This is my first experience with this, like how and with what program.

Thanks in advance.

Download wwpacker 1.5 from http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=95479
Extract the package and put common-key.bin into it.

Drag Blue Oasis wad to __wwunpacker.bat. Then drag the extracted folder to _wwpacker-ios35-plus.bat. Follow its steps, you can set language and video mode according for your needs. A new wad file would be produced finally. It's easy!

I haven't been able to find any WiiWare dumps in like a month. Meh, I'll assume when there's a good game it will crop up quickly.

That is the same thing as asking for it.

 

[samsam12]

if anyone wants to know, Blue Oasis was dumped on gctracker today, so if any one wants to patch it and reupload it, that would be good.

EDIT: Blue Oasis will work if you set the region to NTSC-U in freethewads and install it with the wad installer (not manager) and it will work, however, you cant see the text and the game will crash if you touch a fish.

Ok thx, that was an easier way to do it. Worked fine.

Yep had the same thing happen.
