How do I get SSBB screenshots off my Wii and onto my computer. I tried putting them on an SD card, then putting the SD card into my sister's camera and hooking it up to my computer, but that didn't work. What the hell am I supposed to do?

What's the damn point of having a USB if you can't save stuff to your flash drives.

Apparently this is how you're supposed to do it:

Step 1:
Put the sd card into the wii, and start up a brawl. Press + or 'Start' depending on the controller, follow the on screen help to zoom in and out, rotate, etc. then press 'A' to take the screenshot. It will give you 2 options: save it to the wii, or save it to your sd card. Choose the latter.

Step 2:
Pop out the sd card, and either insert it into the sd slot of your computer, or into the digital camera. If you don't have an sd slot (I don't, I'm using a macbook) then put it into the digital camera and plug the camera into the computer.

Step 3:
If you're running Windows:
Wait for the dialog box to come up and select 'Show Files/Folders' or whatever it is (I forgot what it says).
If you're running Mac Os X:
Wait a bit, then look on your desktop for the external disk. Open it up.

Step 4:
Either way, your at the root of your sd card. Now your screenshots are stored in the following location, so go there:
private/wii/app/RSBE/al/
You'll see some .bin files with what looks like random numbers. However, the format goes like this:
al_YearMonthDay_HourMinute.bin
Locate the screenshot you want, or just select them all, and copy them to a folder on your hard drive.

Step 5:
Go to this website:
http://xane.gamez-interactive.de/Brawl/Decrypter/
Once there select or de-select 16:9 Widescreen, depending on your options in brawl (by default it is 4:3). Click 'Choose File' navigate to your .bin screenshot, click Decrypt, and wait for it to render a .jpg. Hooray! Your Finished!

My sister's camera won't let me get to the root directory though... not even through Windows Explorer. Sad

Were those the directions for getting a screenshot of Brawl onto your computer, or DETONATING A BOMB?

I say if you want pictures from brawl take the snapshot then get, the camera an take a picture of the game. Lot quicker but the pictures might lose some "resolution".


I'm so bananas I'm showing up to your open casket,
to fill it up with explosive gases,
and close it back,
with a lit match in it,
while I sit back, and just hope it catches.

Blow you to fragments,
laugh,
roll you, and smoke the ashes.

Not to mention it's pretty difficult to get the lighting conditions right when taking a picture of a TV. I cite certain YouTube videos as examples. (No, I'm not linking them for you. I'm lazy)

it's not as hard as its made out to be.

basically take some snapshots, put the sd card in your computer, click a bunch of empty folders till you find your pics, move them to your pc, go to that website, plug them in.
