Hopefully this will work perfect on the Wii next week at the release but also will we see a Freeloader for Wii from Datel, fingers crossed eh :)

Im sure we all want to play games from a different region.

i have a Freeloader for GC and love it.... im in the UK so it ment i could import US games and play them before they were out in the UK... ii had completed res evil 4 a couple of times before it was even out in the UK :D

i hope they get one working for the Wii.... i would def get one

I thought the Wii was region free. Was that just a rumor? If it is, what use would a version of freeloader be?

EDIT: Nevermind, I see what your saying. (open mouth, insert foot) You mean the GCN version freeloader working on Wii. Yeah I can see where that would be important if GCN region protection was still activated.

wii isn't region free, to many peoples annoyance. They stated it was, but now they say it isn't and that was a mistake.

[Basil Zero]

wow, this is good for Nintendo....sony should take some notes

[Anger]

well i for one would like imported games. however a freeloader that worked for vc games as well as regular import games would be nearly unbeatable. i hope they are technically able to do this.

[kcajblue]

why couldnt they just make the wii reigon free.

[abeisgreat]

because they are stupid they should have made it RF

[The Hombrew Hunter]

Meh. Don't really care.

Hey, as long as Twilight Princess holds me like Majora's Mask and Ocarina of Time did/are, I don't get a shizz!

By the by, the AR for Gamecube also has a freeloader. Well, mine does.

[Adrenalin]

Anyone care to explain what freeloader is physically - ie. a disk or card or something?

[Sonic-NKT]

Freeloader is a boot disk for the gamecube that allows you to start cube games from every county without modding the console. The Action Replay disc from Datel also allows that (besides cheating and homebrew ;) )
If you ask me, i would say that AR and Freeloader still work on the wii (atleast i hope so).


PS: it would be awesome if the Action Replay trick (for playing homebrew) would still work either :)

If you ask me, i would say that AR and Freeloader still work on the wii (atleast i hope so)

I hope so too, my doubt is that it is a slot loading mech so it may reboot when you press the eject button..?:confused:
