If you have a PAL wii you will want to look under the sections of NTSC(U) TO PAL OR NTSC(J) TO PAL when looking up game titles of different regions to see if they are region compatible.

sorry newbie here
But after reading all what has been said it seems like it is ok to allow the latest update for my wii as i only use backed up pal games for my pal wii with wiikey.
would you say that, that is correct.
please be kind with your responses. lol

hey
can anyone confirm if the wiikey will still load:
- Multi-Game GC games
- Normal backup GC Games
without GcoS?
If I don't get an answer, I will go home and try it myself tonight.
Also, I read that some ppl were having that error where they see a game in the channel screen, but when they click start it just goes to a black screen. I have this problem too w/ Mario Party 8. Is it just a bad ISO or does anyone know?

OK I tested the following tonight after a 3.0u update w/ an official WiiKey on my NTSC Wii
- Wii backups (NTSC) = working fully
- Wii backups (PAL) = working fully including online (strikers, but note that I used the wiikey config disk to enable PAL before the 3.0u update)
- GC Backups single game = working fully
- GC Backups homebrew = working fully (I tested a multi-boot emulator which included SNES, NES, Genesis and Turbografx, all worked flawlessly w/o need to swap anything. I assume this means multi-game backups work too).
- GC Backups multi-game = not yet tested myself, should work though if you look at previous example.
- GC Backups PAL = not yet tested, no reason for me to test
I think that covers it, so in conclusion, no big deal for the 3.0u update, basically does everything other than load that wiikey disk.
My guess? The next update will be the one to watch out for, because it was this update that included a warning message for next time. I will definitely NOT be the one doing these tests for 3.x or 4.0.

"groaning @ Rocket976"
IF you actually searched the forums for D2C you would know that there is no chip currently available for D2C. Man, o man... It seems like I come on this board more often to correct people than give new advice.

grkblood Who do you think you are?
Official AfterDawn Crybaby = grkblood
I didnt personally ask you, and I guarantee you dont know squat and all of your posts are of the same nature. If you dont have anything positive to say then keep your pathetic, useless comments to yourself. As everyday goes by new hacks are releasd, in fact smart guy there is now a work around for the wii-boss that may be applicable to the cyclowiz, but you didnt have anything positive to add to the subject just your moaning and complaining.

LMAO!!!! All i gotta say is that I DID answer your question. Good one though. But since my comment was worthless and held no factual information I suggest that you go buy a Wiikey. Install it and tell me how it goes.

With an attitude like that you will find it hard to get your questions answered. Show some respect. Both of your post above could have been answered by doing a search. Instead you have come into this thread and are trying to highjack it. I will be sure to note how much of a dick you are and make sure not to help you out in the future.

I would suggest running the update before updating to 3.0 firmware. I have no idea if the update disc works after updating to 3.0 firmware because I already updated the WiiD. No there is no new update the only update that came out came out a while ago.

First there is no region lock option on a Wiikey, it is Region Override.
Second if the region over Ride is set to ON then you can play all region game disc as long as they are region compatible.
Third if you had read all the previous post in this thread you would know that you can boot the Wiikey set up disc by using a GCoS boot up disc.

Dear angrylarry,
Oh how i'm so sorry about calling it a region lock setting instead of region override setting - it must be deeply upsetting for you and your family. Give me your home address and i'll send you a lovely buquette of flowers via UPS

Angry?
Who said I was angry?
Just tired of lazy asses like you being to lazy to read all the post to find your answer. Also tired of newbies coming on here not giving the other members the respect they deserve.

read the previous post to find out what it is.

Unfortunately I would have to agree with you and it pains me to have to agree.
By the way what is your address? After I get the flowers I will be sure to send a thank you note, stamped with my foot up your ass.

Can someone tell me what a Wii is and what I can do with it? ;-)
I am going to update my Wii right now. It looks like there won't be issues. I haven't played and non-ntsc region games so I am not concerned with that just yet. (maybe i should change it just in case)
I will report back my findings.

You have a Wii and you don't know what it is or what you can do with it?

Please note the ";-)" at the end of my first statement. My sarcasm was lost.
Anyway, I started teh updated. How long did the 2.2 to 3.0 take. It has not moved from the first little blue sliver in teh progress bar. It has been about 15 minutes

Let it update.
It took me close to 45 minutes to update from 2.2U to 3.0U
It shouldn't take that long to download the update but sometimes it does. I would tend to think it is due to a server overload issue or some issue with the server.
