6 years later CleanRip is back with a much needed update to address some issues - most of the changes are from other contributors which is nice to see
DAT files are hosted on gc-forever.com and CleanRip can automatically download these from a Wii but failing that, grab the files from redump.org or from the Releases page here.
Changes in this release:
Fix crash on verify disk and other minor fixes (@ac90b671 / @mrahm)
Fix DAT downloading issue (Wii DAT is > 1MB) (@ThadHouse)
Add SD2SP2 (GameCube Serial Port 2) support (@ThadHouse)
Are you near sea/salt water, or in general they just don't last. Sounds like if you driving a mercedes, you need a garage. I get snow n ice here so nothing worse than clearing that shit off at 6am rushing to get to work.
I went to auction at a mom/pops video game store few months ago that was closing, and bought 11 slims for $200, 1 was DOA but 10 work fine. so hella deal.
