Hi, I was wondering if Wii Flow or USB loader could be used in full game runs. My disk got scratched up and the game’s load times are really long because of it, and I’m pretty sure the load times on Wii Flow are the same as on disk.

A few runs on the leaderboard (including Michael's run) use USB loads, but there have been talks in the community to ban them and pretty much everyone agrees on banning them, although nothing has actually been done for some reason. The ban is based on how it's also banned for other Wii games and Tropical Freeze on Wii U, and that Michael's run was actually played about half a minute worse than JXD's run but is above his on the leaderboard anyway. You could technically still get a run accepted with it right now, but I'd just run with the disc in your situation, even though it loses time (I run on disc myself and also have really slow loads).

I'm not familiar with what Wii Flow is, so someone else will have to answer that.

Thanks. Wii Flow is USB loader, but to my knowledge doesn’t mess up load times in correlation to the disk.

I do not run this game but i know there has been some discussions about making a load remover? What happened with that?
