    Ntsc-j Wii & Mario Kart

    Anyone have a ntsc-j Wii and having issues running Mario Kart? I have a Japanese Iso and backed it up and ran it and installed the patch. Mario Kart runs in the channel, but when i actually try to load the game i get a 001 error. I'm not sure if i need to patch it, i'm pretty sure I don't have to since its the same region. I'm suspecting i might have to try to burn it on another DVD-R, currently using Philips. Any ideas?

    No problems here - what chip are you using?

    I'm not sure to be honest. I got the wii as a gift, there from HK and had it modded for me. Is there anyway that I can find out? I'll take a picture if needed. Lol.

    Can you run Mario Galaxy and Brawl? The new Nintendo games have extra protection that you need your chips to be updated.

    I haven't tried with the JP versions.

    Are you burning it on a good quality disc? Supposedly that error happens with low quality discs, and they can detect that it's not an original or something like that.
    I recommend verbatim DVD-R's if you can get them, got a pack of 100 for 30 bucks and had no problems on any

    That's my guess, that i'm using a bad disc. Gonna see if I can find some Verbatim Dvd-R.

    Is there a swap trick that could work? My wii is running 3.2J, if that helps with anything. Lol.

    Does anyone have a Wii which has the D2C chipset? I was originally going to get the WiiKey but after I found out that my Wii contains the new chip, I have to use a new chip for D2C chipsets. Argon was recommended and was wondering if that is the right choice for $60 +shipping and of course the possibility of screwing up with the soldering.

    I got a D2C chipset with a d2ckey installed. Personally I'd recommend the D2Pro now, it's only 9 wires, and is upgradeable. I've also heard that argon has a lot of bugs with it, but it might have been fixed by now via an update

    Just ordered a D2Pro, 15 wire version, 9 wire came out like two days ago, couldn't find any. Do you think it will come with that "Y" screwdriver that you'll need to dismantle the Wii and/or wires? I didn't see a mention of either in the description.

    I ordered from canadamods.ca - http://canadamods.ca/store/index.php?ac ... oductId=29
