n64 games cause wii memory to become damaged.? - hugphoenix - 07-22-2015

I am trying to get Pokemon snap specifically to work, but anything i do, it always returns "the wii system memory has been damaged. Refer to the Wii Operations manual for further instructions". I have tried the latest dolphin 7064 as well as version 6204 to no avail. I also tried Star Fox 64 and Super mario 64, both failing miserably. Anyone else have this problem? On my wii i have the menu 2.0U and the mii channel v3 installed. the games are also ntsc.

Thanks for your help

This happens because people close the emulator when it's first writing a save file and it doesn't complete writing it causing an incomplete save file. Right click the games, go to their Wii save folder, delete everything, and wait patiently for the game to load and it should work.

heres literally what i do from start to finish: i install wii menu first, then mii channel. start the system. close emulation. install snap. run wii, open snap. "classic" screen, then memory damaged screen.

If you are referring to the system installing a wad, my pc installs it in less than 1 second.

And that's after deleting the "dolphin emulator" folder in my documents
