Thanks, I didn't want that to be the answer though, so I started experimenting with game settings to see if they could make a difference and I found out that turning off the music option boosts the loading speed. I realized this is a rediscovery as I noticed it is used in practically all pf the top runs, but I can't find this anywhere so I am putting it here for anyone to use.
I was comparing one of my IL runs to the run ahead of it to see where I had lost time, and I discovered that I had lost about 2 and a half seconds due to the load time between clicking start and skipping the title scroll. Both runs skipped as early as possible, and I'm relatively new but this seems like it would be too large of a difference for normal time difference in Wiis. So I'm assuming this is some sort of trick but I can't find it anywhere, how would I speed up the load times on the Wii?
