Mario Strikers Charge PAL on NTSC

I just finished the download of Mario Strikers PAL version. I have wiikey and I have the newest firmware (found on NTSC Metroid Prime 3 disc). When I put my Mario Strikers disc in it asks to update the firmware. I SHOULD already have the newest NTSC firware, and have heard that any other version on an NTSC system will brick it? What should I do? I should be able to play any region backup without issues... or so I thought!

it's true you have the newest firmware but if it's asking to update I would highly recommend not doing it because it could change some stuff and brick your wii. I would recommend patching the iso file and reburning it. Running an unpatched game is something I will not do if it's not my region.


I currently have two imports

Guilty Gear XX
Donkey Kong Taru Jet Race

Play great with patch and regionfrii

Wow dude, i think you bricked your wii.

If i am correct, you need to usee Regionfree and wiibrickblocker, i don;t have the links.

how do you know what games you need brick block and regionfree. . .brickblocker is used on all games nomatter where they are from, if you are in the U.S. you use regionfree then brickblocker.

I have no idea what you can do with a bricked wii. . .maybe buy a new one.

Good luck with it..

Sorry to double post. . .but i left things out.


!!INSTRUCTIONS FOR IMPORT WII GAMES!!


Step 1// Download an .ISO of a Wii game.

Step 2// Run RegionFree.

Step 3// Run WiiBrickBlocker.

Step 4// Burn to a blank 4.7gb DVD (I Use DVD+R {Although i am in Australia and don't know if it is any different}).

Step 4// I always turn my Wii off before inserting it (Reason i do is if i don't sometime i get "Disk Read Error" might not be much but kinda scary)



!!NOTE!!

WiiBrickBlocker is used on ever Wii game. . .WiiBrickBlocker is NOT used on GC games. (I do not know if RegionFree is used on Imported GC games though)
