Official Super Mario Galaxy - Post ALL Questions/Problems Here

please somebody help me, i have my wii updated to 3.1U (I am in canada) i got the 1.3 disk and turned the region override on but it just appears off after i reset the console, i dont know if that matters of not. I have 1.9b and 1.9g and i have tried them both but they both do the same thing, i press A to test flashing and it gives me this message, "ERROR test failed, check your connections and try again. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!?!?!?! When i put in mario galaxy, the picture appears on the disk channel and i go to it but then it gives me error 001. Unauthorized modification detected and freezes there until i unplug it. Anybody know what
I'm doing wrong??

 

I just bought my Wii 3.1U version. using d2c
Wanna ask is this work with SMG pal or USA ?

 

Today, I inserted my backup of SMG, and I got an error that said please eject the disc and refer to the Nintendo Wii instructions booklet. The game always worked. When i saw this message, I ejected the disc and just reinserted it and it worked with no problems. Can someone please explain what the cause of this error is.

THANK YOU

In reply to this error, i've had this error a few times as well with SMG and some other games i play that are backups and origs, i suspect it's the media quality and the condition of our DVD rom, the more we play backups with different media the older and more worn our lenses will get. So Using a worn disc since all disc are known to fade on a already worn lense will create these errors. i think a good thing to do is always give your DVD rom time to spin up and time to spin down, and never rush it. like when inserting a game wait for the whining/spinning sound to start and the channel to be displayed before selecting it. Ejecting on the other hand you can probably hit the eject button the dvd rom slows down at a good pace. Also give yout machine a rest once in a while since heat is a big factor in hardware these days. i also think when turning off the system just hit the power button, don't return to wii menu since this makes the drive suddenly slow down and speed up again trying to detect the game. Any way guys that's what i think the reason is for the dame disc errors. It's just a hunch i've always had with hardware. wear and tear are just normal factors in life with hardware components, good luk guys

 

Hi I have:
a Jap Wii
a WiiKey updated to 1.9g (i think)

I am able to run a Jap version of SMG, but obviously all in Japanese and I don't read it.

Can I now play a PAL/NTSC U version of the game?

 

@NicksWii

1) Region Override will show OFF even though it's actually on. It's normal.
2) Burn a new disc of 1.9g at 2x or 4x on DVD-R and try agai, and again, and again ... until it works
3) You cannot run SMG without updating with 1.9g ... therefore the error.

 

@dimsumsun, @wiigame

These errors are a combination of disc quality, burn quality, laser power, unbalanced spin, drive vibrations, etc...

The only part you can intervene is on the quality of media and burn.

 

Wait, so by playing backup games with a wiikey, it can make your wii laser weaker?

 

I have the wiikey and I followed the steps in the tutorial and SMG works perfectly after running the 1.9g fix. My question is do I have to set the region free mode from the config 1.3 disk? If I do, would I need a gamecube controller to navigate?

 

Please disregard my question. I just found out I had to hold the reset button to select it so I just turned it on.

 

no, just general wear & tear

 

wow, i feel really stupid. the reason my update wasnt working was because I have an Openwii, not a Wiikey, I downloaded the update for that and it works fine.

 

hello rafadawn


mi wii is working very well after your indications thank you again for that,mi wii is japanese and i want to know if exist some way to play SMG in english because i don`t understand nothing of japanese and my little son ask me so much about the gameplay.

i read about this and must be impossible can you confirm that?

 

Just tossing in information for future generations
Retail version of SMG works fine on Wiican modchip
