Wii JAP FAQ

  • WII JAP FAQ

    This thread will try to help all Wii JAP owners here in TPC. Hopefully any questions pertaining related to Jap Wiis can be compiled here.

    Year 2008 has been a good year for Wii Hombrewers with the release of Trucha Signer (How to use trucha<click here for link>) and there have been tons of progress since then. The most exciting benefit was the ability to alter backup copy of Wii games so that it can work on other Regions. The JAP Wii gain a lot of benifits as games that didn\'t work before can now be played by editing some parts of the backup copy.

    The following program can be used to make non-working games work on JAP Wii. It can also be used to change the default language of a game from jap to eng (e.g. redsteel, RE:UC)
