My brother recently modded my wii and gave it to me, and I decided to try to play Xenoblade chronicles on it. It worked fine until I reach this one dungeon, and whenever I try to enter it, the game freezes and becomes unresponsive, forcing me to turn off the wii manually each time. This problem happens with USB configurable loader, Neogamma, and the Wiiflow loader. The game does not crash at any other point; only when I try to enter this dungeon. I am certain that the disc image I am using is not corrupt and I have tried reformatting my drive between NTFS and WBFS but to no avail. I have also tried using Modmii to try to "fix" my wii since I myself am actual a complete noobie when it comes to modding. Is there anything else I can try? Should I try to just remod my wii altogether and start over step by step?

Thanks for any help :)

Sorry to bump my topic shamelessly but I just spent the whole day trying to figure this problem out without any success. This is really tough because I am trying to figure out if my brother modded my wiii wrong or if I just need to fix something... I have tried reinstalling cIOSes and messing around with formatting my external hard drive again, but nothing seems to be working. It is odd because the game works completely fine all the way up until I try to enter this dungeon. I have read somewhere that the issue may be because of disk splitting, but I do not think that is the case either since I have tried playing the game in its unsplit iso form as well.

I am completely at my wits end here. Any help please? :(

I tried running it in Dolphin off the same save file and I was indeed able to get past the dungeon. I saved and loaded that save into my wii, but the save will not load when I play from my wii. I think it's safe to conclude that my external hard drive is faulty somehow. Would it work if I bought a new SD Card or external hard drive and loaded the game from there?

Ok I bought a bigger SD card and tried running the game off of that. Even when I load a save that is past the trouble spot, it does not load. I also cannot enter the dungeon when I load a save that is before the dungeon. So at this point it wasn't even an issue with the hard drive I guess. I'm about ready to give up at this point unless anyone has any suggestions.

What is this "dungeon" you keep talking about? In any case, it looks like you need to get past this part with a retail disc.

    @BigOnYa, Maybe. Depends if Nintendo wanted to expand the lifespan of the console. But with every console that they release, it usually gets discontinued after 10-12 years.

    These so-called 'media stories' often make predicaments about when or what is going to happen, whereas it could be the total opposite.

    Support from big n may stop aka new firmwares, but devs will prob continue making games for it as long as sales are good.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    New firmwares are only there to prevent piracy/softmodding hardware, they do not "enhance the user experience" as they claim so on and so forth. And if they decide to add new features to the system via firmware updates, then it's quite rare.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Games are still released on PS4\ XboxOne, so I imagine will be same scenario.

    Currently we don't know what's happening at all, it's up to our imagination to decide (especially via IGN and other sources).

    I have a feeling big N has a extra trick up they sleeve to prevent piracy this time w Switch 2. (Lotus 4 maybe) So the new games can't be dumped, even w a dump tool. (Mig dumper)

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It would have to be extra security measures in the Switch 2 gamecarts that will be different from the OG Switch carts. So, for example, Switch 2 gamecarts will not work with the Switch, because it has a different ASIC. Game partitions and layout to a Switch ROM will be the same, but has extra flags in the ROM header info that only the Switch 2 will recognise.
