A Wii Freeloader question.

Ok, so i'm dyin' to play SSBB (I hate not bein' able to play you folk), so i'm considerin' of buyin' it from my local game specialist shop who have it in stock. I'm just wonderin' if anyone has tried it and that it works awright, or if i'm better waitin' for it to get it's UK release.

 

Well if you CAN wait, I don't see why not. It will most likely have UK features that the US version won't have, just like the US has features and such that Japan doesn't (not big ones but the small ones).

I say yes. Because it's that epic.

 

It's more about the Freeloader i'm wonderin' about. I dunno if you guys have it, but i'm just wonderin' if the Freeloader is safe to use.

 

What is Freeloader? Like the wii's version of Swapmagic?

 

Ummm, what features does the US have that Japan doesn't?

Dredica - Aye, it's like that. Except. i think you just put the CD in and then put the game in when it asks you to.

 

The only things different about the US version that I can see is English voice-overs and English text. O.o Did I miss something?

Kitty, I've got Freeloader, but i'm yet to try it out, i'm waiting for Brawl to come in the post which should be any day now. I will keep you updated on how it is.

 

What is freeloader?

 

Consider it a boot disc (software mod) for playing backups/imports. It's like Swap Magic, but far less complicated in terms of how to get it to work, lol.

 

Oh okay, does the psp have the same thing too then?

 

Nope. PSPs have to be hardware modded as far as I know. Freeloader has also only really been available for Nintendo consoles, specifically the Gamecube and now the Wii. Datel hasn't made any Freeloader discs for any of the other consoles.

 

Awww sweet DA! Hopefully before Wednesday cause that's my day off and i planned to go have a looksee in my shop. ^^

 

I think you should wait. I got it a week ago and so far I've cleared all the events and unlocked every secret character that I know of except Snake, Capt. Falcon and Toon Link. PM me this answer: Is Falco in it too?

 

yeah i dont have a wii, but all games that are released last in different regions are usaully better.
so i say wait.

 

i say wait too..
I played a wii at my friends house..
it didn;t feel right *__*
if it;s just for one game no..
wait awhile then buy..

 

They already have the console, they were asking about buying an import disc for the console

And Dredica, the PSP wouldn't need an import mod, because PSP games are region free.

On topic, the Freeloader is, what, 10 pounds/euros? And once you buy it, you'll be able to import games from now until the end of the Wii's lifespan, months ahead of when the games are actually going to be released in Europe? Simple decision imo.

 

I would import more games if i decide to buy it. I'm just waitin' for DA's on hands impression.

 

:3 I wasn't being serious about the differences, guys. lol

And the release is like April 30th, so I don't know if importing is worth it. o;

 

There still isn't an official release date for Europe =\

Plus, it isn't just for one game, it's an investment so that you can get all anticipated Wii games months ahead of when they're probably going to be released in Europe ( I weep for PAL gamers ;_; )
