Icepeak Freeze Help? Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Winter Games DS

    ... I think I'm the only one who's still playing this game, am I? Y'know, [4274] or [4292] Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games for the DS.

    Anyway, I'm trying to look for a patch, rom or save file for the game that either fixes, already fixed or already past Icepeak's introduction. I've tried searching, but all those are already taken down. Since they all were up at least 3 years ago... :-\

    I'm hoping at least someone could give me hope. :'(

    Here's a few more details:

    I use DeSmuME, which is an emulator version 0.9.9.
    I'm not sure which language is it, but it's in English. You guys can try and tell me the few differences between American and British versions.
    The game freezes on the way from Cubyrinth to Icepeak after getting in the cannon and a small glimpse of Icepeak can be seen.
    Everything else is fine, just the freezing part.

    Can anyone help? Just give me a save file, a confirmed fixed ROM or a patch that works. Please?

    You can use DS-Scene Rom Tool to patch the ROM yourself. It contains patches for almost every game.
    Downloadlink as well as a tutorial can be found here http://forum.romulation.net/index.php?topic=59991.0

    You can use your original save, make a backup copy of the save first.

    And rename and Match the save to the ROM's name.

    Like.

    Although I'm not sure if those are confirmed or not, I thank you. It's not that I'm doubting it, I once downloaded a ROM of the same that was said to be fixed and after 6 hours of playing to reach Cubyrinth the glitch was still there. Which made me rage out of my mind.

    And once again, thank you. :)

    The new patched ROM's where fine at the jump to the Ice peek .

    I have no idea why play all the way through again, when you could have renamed your original save to match the game file name ??? .

    Hi Jhon 591, I just made an account to ask if you would please be able to update the download link. I am desperate to complete this game and had encountered the same issue. If you could upload a file to fix the patch I would be so grateful. :)
