Thanks op.

This is a good deal, considering I payed about $70 for this in January I believe.

Dammit. I did not know that 4.0 couldn't use this (yet).

Really want this game, but I don't think I want to sit and wait for them to get around 4.0. (Because I'd be pissed if they didn't.)

You guys shoulda softmodded before upgrading... You can upgrade to 4.0. but you need to have the Homebrew Channel installed first =P

Does anyone know if you can play this straight up without a ridiculous motion gimmick on it?

Will my wii be updated if the last game i bought was smash bros brawl and only played it online about a month after SSBB release. Its been sitting in my closet since a month after SSBB release. Will i be ok?

You shouldn't have 4.0U if that was the last time.

Unfortunately I guess I'll be waiting, just not sure if I should purchase this while I wait. XD

i wanna play this game, but not a big fan of importing cause of all the tweaks that must go with altering ur system...dont wanna void warranties...lulz

So wait. All you need is the Homebrew Channel? I already have that, and am at 4.0 (modded mine a long while back).

Does Gecko launch it without issues then?

I'm I remember correctly, there are no motion controls whatsoever.

But does freeloader even work with the newer firmware? Either way, I've decided. Going to bite and sit on it until I find a working solution. XD

i did a little search around and it will not work as people who updated to 4.0.

the only alternate method ATM is Twilight Hack/Homebrew Channel/Gecko OS 1.8

Thought I would toss out this questions with the discussion on the arcade sticks.

The official Wii Hori ones plug into the Wii Remote I believe. Is there any noticeable lag using it? I cannot play Smash Bros w/ a Wavebird (or at least my Wavebirds) because the delay drives me nuts. Is there any delay with the arcade stick hooked into the wii remote?

Would I be better of getting an Gamecube arcade stick instead?

I guess I wont be getting the game. I dont want to mod my system and the freeloader is my only option I was thinking.

Great price for this game might pick one up for my brother.

I got a Hori stick for this game and thought it was a L M H configuration and took me about an hour to figure out it was NOT the case. I was also surprised to see you could not configure it. Guess this is because the limited amount of buttons and placement on the Wiimote. Once I figured it out I was having a blast.

I'm not sure about the hori stick that plugs into the wii remote, but you can configure gamecube controls without problem. You just need to be able to read kanji. (I don't know why they use the button -> action mapping instead of action -> button mapping )

Also worth noting, all the mini games use the wii remote, but you must disconnect all gamecube controllers because you can play any of the mini games.

Just for the record and anyone else who's interested, the modding isn't really modding, it's more like hacking. There's a small bit of risk involved, but if you've ever installed software on your pc, it's the same thing. This "modding" doesn't require you to open up your wii or do anything of that sort.
