And you can play USA games even if your switch is set to 'Japan'. that's only useful if your console isn't hacked, since if you have a modchip or gcloader, your console is region free anyway. With that, there wouldn't be any chance of problems because each region has a separate memory card.īut.

I want to do the region mod, it's pretty easy, and was thinking I could also have an internal memory card for each region, so when I set to Japan, the memory card for Japanese games is inserted, when the switch is on USA, it's a different memory card.Īll of that should be doable with just one DPTP switch. I'm going to be modding a gamecube soon and I'm just planning stuff out at the moment. I read some Japanese games don't like to display text if your console isn't Japanese, but Swiss can help with that - but I guess you'll still need a separate memory card right? What do these messages say? If Dolphin can't create a save, it will usually tell you if it can't.Does Swiss help at all with this, make any difference?

It should now load your save that was on your memory card. You can start it from the Homebrew Channel or if you have USBLoader GX/Wii Flow/Configurable USB Loader installed,from within the Loader. Save the settings and press B till you see the games banner, click start to load the game. It has the Option of 'Virtual Saves' to SD/USB.You do not need a GameCube Memory Card. I closed Wind Waker and was successfully able to load the SaveState. Now go into the games individual settings, click Game Load and scroll down to 'DEVO MemCard Emulation' click on it till it says ON. When I use a savestate, it says it Saved and said the file it saved it in. When I made an in-game save it said it wrote the contents to memory card A and it said the file it wrote it in. I re-extracted the contents of the zip file into a folder labeled 'Dolphin' in my 'Downloads' again.
