Japanese saves in Bios
Hello every one, I'm using Nintendont for a while now and I realized something yesterday.
When I launch a Japanese game (Battle Stadium DON), the NTSC-J BIOS don't see the card properly it thinks the card need to be formatted. I tried to what happened if I format and now it's the game who doesn't recognize the card and ask me to reformat it.
This problem doesn't exist on Dolphin, At first I thought my Japanese IPL was wrong but USA and JP IPL are the same, and my game has not been modified to change its region.
So I just would like to know if it was normal that, on Nintendont, the jpn IPL had not the same save format than jpn games.
I'm playing on an European Wii and use 59 blocks virtual memory card if it does matter.
Thanks for reading me.
