Known Issues
- You might need to set "Window Offset" in the Video Options menu to see the HUD for some mods on some TVs.
- Pressing Up on the Classic Controller D-pad in the mod selection menu does nothing. It works fine in-game, and the analog stick works fine both in the menu and in-game.
- Pressing the RESET button on the Wii causes a code dump.
