    If you softmodded the wii, there should be no need. If I'm not mistaken, there is a region free option.

    Wouldn't it be easier to just dl an NTSC instead, or is it PAL region exclusive?

    EDIT: a reply to the post above, there is indeed a region modifier.

    Use your common sense, if you had another thread like this moved to that section earlier today, don't create new threads where you know they are going to be moved

    Just so you know but you can always force display in USB loader GX without patching as with most loaders

    Done it the other way round with a couple of games (NTSC 60 to PAL 60)

    You didn't do it correctly then it's still PAL for it to be black n white same goes for NTSC on PAL TV sets untill you get the display correct

    Pick a game as if to load
    Hit Settings
    Hit Game Load
    Change Video Mode to AutoPatch

    I use IOS 249 if that even makes a difference
