The game freezes after strap loader

[Sir Ethan]

So I've downloaded quite a few character packs and suddenly the game ceases to load through Riivo.
I eliminated a possible cause(common5_en.pac) but it still freezes.

When does it freeze after the strap loader? Also, when you say "character packs" I'm assuming you must mean with custom menus or something? If so, what files came in the character packs? While I might not know exactly which file does the specific frame of what you mean, I can recognize what would NOT have anything to do with it so that you can test the other files.

By that I meant I downloaded a bunch of characters from here.
It freezes before the "Online interactions not rated by ESRB" message can fully fade in..
I know it's not the console cause I tried to test on both my wiis.

Try deleting the "menu"->"strap"->"StrapEn.pac" from your SD card(Copy it to your computer to put back afterwards[If it's not the problem] and/or tweak) and see if it still freezes at that point.

I don't have a custom strap loader....

Hmm...

What folders DO you have on your SD card?(Other than the "fighter" folder, of course)

If it freezes during the strap loader (meaning it can't be the strap menu file since that's already loaded once you boot the game.), It must be a file that's read when the strap loader is showing. Pro'lly one of the common.pac files.
