How come? What exactly is the problem? I've got it working with a double layer disc.

Brawls starts, but only 'till the beginning of the intro (exact point of crash varies)

It's all up to my brother...he'll figure a way to fix it

Have you tried setting the Wii's video mode to 50 Hz (if it's on something else)? I think I read something about people having trouble with 60 Hz - might be worth a shot.

The only issues I had were flickering in the menus (problem solved itself for some reason), strong lags in the cutscenes (solved itself as well), slow motion battles (also solved itself) and game freezes when using water-related attacks (didn't solve itself ). I can live with the latter, though, until there's a fixed/PAL version to get. The game's definitely worth it.

The Wii is fucking awesome! Only topped by my brother who had the skillz to mod it. We're playing:
Twilight Princess for 0,- €
Mario Party for 0,- €
Worms for ,- €
Metal Slug Anthology for 0,- €
(soon)Smash Bros. Brawl for 0 ,- €

All in all, we spent about 350 € for the (second hand ebay) Wii (2 remotes, 2 nunchucks (?), 1 classic controller) and the mod stuff.

*happy mode on*

Germanys "minister for inner security" (Innenminister). The one who is responsible for the internet being watched for illegal music/movie downloads through torrents/p2p under the name of prevention of terrorism

Ouch...and they caught some of your friends?
Gosh I'm glad I'm living in Austria, our politicians are asleep all day long

[psychokind]

not friends directly, but some people i know. a girl received a letter from the lawyer, which said she has to pay 6000 € because of filesharing mp3s

Depending on where you get your stuff, you're relatively safe - I've stopped using German/public/well known trackers quite a while ago, and when it comes to Wii ISO's, EspalWii is your friend.

Alright guys! My bro & sis bought me 2000 Wii-points for my birthday...and there are WAY too many games on the VC to decide whom to pic...

So, I want you to suggest me some games, maybe some I haven't played yet, maybe some I should get, etc.

I'm thinking of 1 SNES game (800 - 900 points) and 2 NES games (500-600 points).
But also, 2 SNES games (like, THE uber-super games) are also considerable.
Maybe 1 game with a multiplayer part (= more fun).

So...lets hear your suggestions!

[psychokind]

since there is no terranigma yet...

naah forget it, i would definitely go for 2 SNES games !
