Thread: Wii Backup Loader won't load

Hello there,

I'll try to be brief and clear. I've had the Wii Gamma Launcher .03 (to load wii games with) and a GCN Backup launcher (accessed from the same channel but only booted when a GCN disc is inserted) up and running for a good year now.

This may be completely unrelated but I'll mention it anyway; a few days ago I tried to load one of my backup wii games through the loader. It would allow me to choose a region and access the Gamma Launcher menu, but it gave me a DVD error when I tried to start up the game. After ejecting the disc, I noticed it was terribly dirty and a little scratched, so I payed the error no mind and figured the backup was just damaged.

Whether that scenario was related or not, today I just tried loading several of my other wii/gcn backups. The Gamma Launcher screen shows up, but only the title is visible and a 'green square lizard icon' in the bottom left. That icon would normally show up, but I also recall seeing other ones (I don't know its significance in this matter). The actual problem is that the menu (from which I could configure the Launcher options and choose to launch the game) is not showing up at all. Having said that, I don't know what could have caused my launcher to stop working. Anybody got any ideas or experienced anything similar?

Any help and info is appreciated. Thank you!

Lol, so don't stress it. USB loaders are a hassle in my opinion. That is not to say they don't work just as well (if not better) than my 'outdated' .03 Gamma. My wii travels as much as I do, and the lighter it is, the more functional it is. Until the old loader starts actually screwing up with managing newer backups, it really is in no need of further attention.
