Changing region setting?

[G3TRSEN]

The default region setting for Dolphin is Switzerland, correct? How do I change it?

[Aleron Ives]

What are you talking about? Dolphin defaults to the language of your OS, but you can force a specific language under Config -> Interface -> Language. As for games, Dolphin has no region lockout, so it supports games from all regions.

I mean the country setting of the emulated Wii itself.

I think you can force as Japan, but that is it. Why would you want such a setting?

[Aleron Ives]

Yeah, Dolphin doesn't let you pick the region of the emulated console, since Dolphin doesn't care about region lockouts. IIRC the only reason the Force NTSC-J option exists is to do with fonts and other things that can differ between western software and software intended only for Japanese consoles.

I'm mostly interested so I can display the correct flag under my name in Mario Kart time trials.

Retexture it?

Would it work if you use the Wii system menu to change the settings?

[G3TRSEN]

I am able to change the country there, but when I go into Mario Kart itself to set the specific region - i.e. when it tells you to go back to the Wii Menu to change it - it sends me back to the Wii Menu rather than letting me change it there.

I'm having the same problem... and I think something like boot2.wad from nusd should help, you neet to change it in wiiconnect24 tab, but everytime I open it, it says "System files are corrupted, please enter in contact with Nintendo"
Strange!
