this is why wii never got a AAA title, I guess Nintendo might throw more money in games this gen and finally get a AAA game

So I'm confused. Super Mario Galaxy isn't AAA? Xenoblade Chronicles isn't AAA? A COD port isn't AAA? And isn't the AAA bar for the Wii as far as budget is concerned set a little lower, considering development costs are lower?

nope they were to cheap to make, super mario galaxy probably cost less than a game like haze and xenoblabe would have been a xboxlive or psn game if it was release on the HD twins

Have you ever played Xenoblade? Cause if you think its a PSN or Xlive quality game then you are delusional.

if you say so

Xenoblade Chronicles is as AAA as the Wii gets. Keep in mind it's basically running on 6th gen hardware.

This is true. But on my PC, it looks like a 6th gen HD remake. :)

You sly devil. :p When I upgrade my PC, that's the first thing I'm gonna do.

I couldn't get my ripper to work on my Wii.  I downloaded a quick wind waker torrent to make sure I had dolphin and all installed correct.  Used wind waker cause it was a small game size with large seeders.

Wind Waker worked, but none of the games I tried ripping myself worked.  I tried like 5 of them.  So sadly I'm playing Xenoblade still on my wii.  Though it still looks amazing on that though, so not a huge deal.  But I've seen videos of this game running on dolphin and it looks amazing.

Did you try raw dump?
