Stamping your library books.
I was beginnning to wonder this: Would it be possible to use a hacking device to remove the timer on the masterpeices? I mean, Brawl has all of the data to those games, right?

**I'm too lazy to google search.

I don't think this'll work, actually. Sakurai and Co. most likely only put a limited amount of data for each Masterpiece in Brawl counting on the fact that players could only get so far with the time limit. It's highly unlikely that Brawl has the entire games on its disc.

It has the full games. A hack has been done already.

Yep, Darkurai is correct. HOWEVER if you updated your Wii and don't have Gecko OS 1.07b installed, you can't use the code without its Rebooter option. The Rebooter doesn't work with the new update yet so, if you updated and have HBC Beta 9 and Gecko OS 1.07b, you still can't use it yet.

being able to play VC games is precisely the reason I have yet to update my Wii. The only downside to using Brawl's VCs is that there is no save feature so longer games such as Super Metroid and Orcarina of Time would be a waiste to play.

What, what?

first, I know it's small data, but how much wasted space went into this?
Second, if it's has entire games, let me play more than one freaking lap of F-Zero!
third, it's a great concept hampered by a dam clock.
Fourth, why can't more time be added by unlocking crap in challenges, That'll be better then some dam stickers.

Compare the developmental resources put towards making a new character, and shoving a ROM on there which doesn't even take more than 12 MB of the 8.5 GB of available space they have to work with. And that's an N64 game... previous gen games are exponentially smaller.

I swear you all just came off the short, yellow bus or something.

I was wondering the same thing. The Wii disc itself holds a LOT of data (Heck it's a dual layered disc).

I'm sure they have the whole ROM in the games. I too would like to see a link for being able to play masterpieces without the stupid timer.

ROM files aren't really that big anyways, they can fit on a Wii optical disk, ESPECIALLY since its a dual-layer disk.

But yes, with The Homebrew Channel and Ocarina

You can play the full games ;-)

Not quite Ocarina... You'll need GeckoOS.

For NTSC Brawl:

Code:
Disable Time Limit On VC Games (brkirch, Only Works With Rebooter on GeckoOS)

From the codes thread.

EDIT: Here's a first-result-on-Google video of the code in action.
