Description

Game Name?

Bakugon Battle Brawlers (Toys R Us Edition) - RUHX52

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

I had to modify my game disc in order to tell the emulator it's not a PAL disc. By default, if I load RUHX52 into Dolphin, it assumes that it is a PAL regioned game. This is incorrect; it's an NTSC game, I've played this very disc on my NTSC Wii. So why the hell is Dolphin launching my NTSC game in the PAL region? Because the region code is "X" instead of "E". Seriously. The game runs too slow, FMVs are messed up, and other defects occur.

Now here's where it gets a bit more interesting. RUHE52 is the "normal" Bakugon Battle Brawlers game id; so, by hex editing mine to return that game ID, the game launches normally. Why are we relying on the game ID to set video modes?

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Have RUHX52 and run it in Dolphin.

Which versions of Dolphin did you test on? Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which versions of Dolphin used to work?

Not Applicable.

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

Core i5 3570K, GTX 760, Windows 7

Is there any other relevant information? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files)

I could show a screenshot of it running 25/50 instead of 30/60, but honestly, I really don't care to and it won't really add to the issue.
