This exploit does not work with every version of Zelda:TP. Easy way to check your version is to compare the text string which is on the inner cycle of the data surface with the ones below.

RVL-RZDP-0A-0 JPN - working
RVL-RZDE-0A-0 JPN - working
RVL-RZDE-0A-2 USA - reportedly not working

I was JUST about to post this!

Anyways, I'm really excited about this! I can't wait to be able to run some stuff off of it!

freakin awesome cant wait to see how far this'll go

[bah]

It would be amazing if the homebrew community could make use of head tracking before commercial titles do. Unofficial games offering types of gameplay it seems even the creator of the system hadn't imagined.

A big component of the Wii's popularity with 'non-hardcore' gamers is the control and how it encourages you to stand and move around rather than slouch in a chair. How cool would it be to be able to move around and actually have perspective taken into account, where moving to the side lets you see around an obstacle that was previously in the way. Or just to look cool if that proves difficult.

I know i bring up head tracking on pretty much every Wii thread imaginable, but its just a far too impressive (to me at least) idea to not warrant further experimentation.

Anyone knows if this works with the PAL verison of the game?

[NSCXP2005]

I would also like to know if this works on the PAL version.

Also how do I get this working, does this work under windows?

[basilb]

scummWii :)

[AngelicLiver]

I'm just about to test it in my PAL Wii, I'll let you know how it goes!

Can't wait for the homebrew that will come of this, let's just hope Nintendo don't catch on too quick! T__T

[Edit]

Worked a treat on my launch day PAL Wii console and launch retail copy of Twilight Princess. Really excited now, everyone involved deserve a pat on the back!

RVL-RZDP-0A-0 JPN (PAL version) working.

[Carlotta_Monroe]

Could this eventually be used for region-free gaming?

[Xiofire]

Oh right!!!! Works on PAL launch console.
Sweet. BTW anyone elses pointer stop working once the file was loaded? or was that just mine?

[SkyeDarkhawk]

Right now, this is a proof of concept, right?

[phsychokill]

yeh basicaly this is just a file to say look what we can do but i put money on a firmware that stops this will probly come out on something like mario kart just have to hope nintendo leaves this open. if it does let us do import games eventualy that would be great games too long to get to the uk.

[CoinCollector]

I'm not sure what Nintendo can and can't do with a firmware update, so does anyone know if they can stop this with one if we already have the save on our consoles? I really don't want this to be patched, and I still want to be able to use stuff like the Wii Shop Channel.

[phsychokill]

the psp had a similar hack with liberty city stories and another game sony stoped it with a firmware update so asuming this wont be that differant meaning nintendo could just detect how the code is injected then get the wii to ignore or block it.

[souLLy]

shant be updating my wii anymore then :)
can't wait to see where this goes from here...

*edit* just tried this out... very, VERY cool.

[rokobungi]

works! but is it supposed to buzz while the code runs?? and I have to hard reset to get out of it.

[LilSwish722]

This is awesome. I'm going to have to try it on my next day outta school. (Hopefully tomorrow with the 6-12 of snow we're getting tonight :p) But this is cool. I have the useable disc too. Def not updating anymore.

[Eviltaco64]

Well, once I get a Wii and an all black Wii case/Wiimote case for Brawl, I might as well try this out :)

[Solidsnake3000]

Cool I hope homebrew will get released soon.
So what is up with this Casino cash thing?

[wizard]

I've just tried this, and it does work with the US version and console. I can't wait to see where this leads.

[andytjm]

It worked woo hoo! PAL Console and Zelda TP about 6 months after launch.
RVL-RZDP-0A-0 JPN (PAL version) and yeah my pointer stopped working aswell.

[DPyro]

Ya, just tested this on the US version (first release 2006). Works like a charm :) I stopped updating long ago when I first heard about these guys (that, and I haven't touched the Wii in months xD).

[sheridan2000]

first post and probably a stupid one but here goes...this at the moment does not actually do anything apart from crashing the wii..or am i missing something??

[DPyro]

Crashes the Wii, then displays a 'Hello World' type program, or proof of concept.

[fg-54]

w00t! looks awesome! can't wait to see what you guys can do with that!

[ninja9393]

what the hell, do i have a japenese TP

it has JPN on the end of the code ( I am from the USA )

[DPyro]

This (http://wiidev.memiks.com/down/rzde2.bin) file is reported working for the people with RVL-RZDE-0A-2 USA version. I don't have that version, so can someone confirm?
