Region Settings?
Is the Wii like the other game console where they are regions for each one.. so let's say I buy one here.. can my cousin use it over in Europe or will she have to buy games over here and have them shipped out to her over there?
|
Yeah, Wii's region locked. European games won't work on an American system and so forth.
Nintendo early 2006: Wii's going to be region free! Honest! |
Shit... Does it say it on it's website or anything b/c now I'm hearing mixed up answers... Some people are saying "no, it's not region lock.." and some are saying it is...
|
It is region locked. They are even being queer about the virtual console and locking that so whenever Terranigma ends up on it American's get to miss out on it a second time even though it's already in English. ;)
|
damn.. My cousin is gonna have fun at Fry's return line tomorrow then..
Anyone know if the DS is also region locked? |

Modchip it.
|
Does modchipping it allow you to purchase from other region Wii Shop stores? =o
Although, ya you did tell me you can just do emulation via gamecube homebrew but I'm just wonderin'. |
I haven't bothered, but most likely not.
|
No getting a modchip will not allow you to purchase from other VC stores (that just sounds silly). Though it does solve region free (obviously). But if you recently purchased it, the only known way to mod it is fairly complicated.
|
That's what I thought. Just wanted confirmation.

And that's the easier install. :3: Mind you, this is for the newest chipsets for the Wii. I'm assuming this is the case for Furby. |
