Play the full Wii version (UNSTABLE)

The PC version is fully capable of loading the Wii version's assets, and as a result many more mini-games can be played and much more content can be experienced.

WARNING: Many, many issues are introduced when importing the Wii version's assets. A few examples include only being able to control the game using an XInput controller, no sounds at all (except for FMVs), no save file functionality, 640x480 resolution display, no exit button (Alt+Tab ↹ + Task Manager necessary to close app), and much more. It is HIGHLY suggested you backup your installed files, including any save files before proceeding.

Instructions

Extract all the files in the ISO from your own dumped Wii disc copy using an extraction program such as Dolphin or WiiScrubber. Find a file with a *.bf file extension and rename it to RRR2.bf. Copy the renamed RRR2.bf file and the videos folder and paste them to <path-to-game>, replacing any files when prompted. Run the game as you normally would, and you should now be able to somewhat play the Wii version.
