Mario Kart Wii/BRLYT Text
Jump to navigation

This is a sub-page of Mario Kart Wii.
BRLYT files are responsible for menu layouts, and they have a section in them to place text. The final game uses BMG files for text storage instead, leaving the BRLYT files with a bunch of old and placeholder text, some of which is untranslated.
You can view these messages in-game by using the following Gecko code:

Title.szs/../press_start.brlyt | PRESS (+) or START | - | Interestingly, it means that you originally would not press the A button on the title screen but instead the + button (or START on a GameCube controller). |
Title.szs/../common_w017_message.brlyt | イチローさんのフレンドコードは 1111 - 1111 - 1111 - 1111 になります。マリオカートを とおくはなれたともだちとあそぶために ひつようなばんごうです わすないようにメモしておいてください |
Ichiro's friend code is 1111-1111-1111-1111. You'll need these codes to play Mario Kart with friends who are far away. Write them down so you won't forget! |
Friend codes were originally 16 digits long? (unless it's talking about a Wii friend code). Ichiro might be referring to Ichiro Suzuki on the programming team. |
Title.szs/../common_w055_message_connect.brlyt | 灡攱 | ??? | Possibly just garbage data. |
MenuOther.szs/../ending_text_bottom_type.brlyt | EXECTIVE PRODUCER SATORU IWATA JUN ITO TAKAHIRO TAKAYAMA SATORU IWATA SHIGERU MIYAMOTO |
- | Misspelling of "executive". Also in the final game, Satoru Iwata is the only one credited as the Executive Producer. |
