The Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disc is a disc that was given for free to anyone who pre-ordered Pokémon Colosseum. It includes a preview of the movie 'Jirachi The Wish Maker' and of the game 'Pokémon Colosseum'. The English version also includes the Pokémon Jirachi that can be achieved in the games Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire, while the Japanese version contains the Pokémon Celebi instead.

Problems

Misaligned Text

Due to differences in the font shipped with Dolphin from the real GC Bios font, the text of some dialogs may be misaligned. This can be corrected by extracting the real GC BIOS font, font_ansi.bin, and placing it in the "Sys\GC" directory.

Revision OS CPU GPU Result Tester
3.5-141 Windows 7 x64 Intel Core i7-2600 @ 3.4GHz nVidia GeForce GT545 Japanese version. Videos stop after less than one second, you have to press B to go back to the menu. The Celebi downloader seems to work, I couldn't understand any of the menus. Sound stops playing in the menu after several minutes.
4.0-6046 Windows 8.1 x64 Intel Core i5-3210M @ 2.5GHz nVidia GeForce 610M Game ID: PC6E01. 60FPS. The preview videos play just fine. The GCN-GBA connectivity to obtain Jirachi works but is finicky. Used VBA-M 1292. Use proper procedures to enable GCN-GBA hook-up. Had to import battery save just as the GBA boot screen was finishing up its animation for the Bonus Disc to properly connect with Ruby/Sapphire Version. First Jirachi obtaining for Ruby Version worked like it did if real hardware were used but the second Jirachi obtaining for Sapphire Version had a desync somewhere in communication but the desync only affected Dolphin. The two VBA-M saves are corruption-free and both have Jirachi with a random held berry just like the real hardware would result. Just one weird render error. issue 8489. Wildgoosespeeder
