Super Paper Mario PAL glitch found? |
Ó
Things may not be all that dandy in Flipside as we once thought, as it seems that quite a few users are having issues with the PAL version of Mario's papery adventure for the Nintendo Wii. Thankfully, those of us crafty enough to experiment with Super Paper Mario's language settings of the game have found a quick remedy to the glitch.
So what's the glitch, and where does it happen? Apparently, it manifests itself as a game freeze after you confront Mimi in Chapter 2-2, namely inside Merlee's Mansion. After she tells you to search the rooms for Merlee, and when you tell her that Merlee herself is nowhere to be found, the game stops dead in its tracks. What's worse is that it's not just an isolated bug, but a rather prevalent one, as many players have already reported of this happening.
What's the workaround, then? Simple - change the system's language setting to German just before getting to Mimi. You'd be able to coast through the glitch without any problems, at which point you can save, power off, and set it back to its original language setting. Easy, isn't it? You can probably use this for any other similar glitch points in the game.
While there is a way to go around the glitch, let's hope that Nintendo notices this and does something to resolve the issues - mayhap a patch, or even a new version of the game itself? Time will only tell, but we're banking on a patch itself. It'd be much easier for them to do so, what with the Wii's WiiConnect24 feature.

Props, Still it sucks that the glitch is even there are all though,
It's not a glitch, it's a feature. Yes, yes, figuring out how to bypass the freezes was part of the game and you guys at QJ just spoiled the fun of a new, difficult challenge for all european players! Really, why do you think it takes SO LONG for games to arrive in Europe? It's because they add NEW BUGS for us European players, and we should be thankful! More seriously, I really hope that one day, video game companies will start giving a ***** about Europe. Getting untested, full of glitches, horribly translated games 6 months/1 year (or more) after their original release in JP or US kinda sucks, if you ask me.
Calm down. IT's the PAL format that is mostly to blame; since we're going to a more standard format with HD stuff, European stuff won't be left so far behind. I guess the Wii and older stuff is screwed, since it's gotta be PAL, but PS3/360 stuff should start to even out for you guys. And we get stuff way later than Japan, too, BTW
