Can my wii play japanese wii games

To make matters worse there is currently no way of bypassing the region lock without just importing the region's console the region code is hardwired into the hardware. Mostly Nintendo is the only company that still region Locks.

Xbox One is completely region free as is the Ps4. Brawl or Lego Batman. And in addition to that you can install a small unofficial and safe channel called 'The Homebrew Channel', which allows you to run unsigned applications without inserting a specific game disc every time that was used for the initial exploit used to install the channel.

You can then use either Gecko OS, or the smaller but newer WiiLauncher, run through the channel, to load game discs region free I recommend you put both on your SD Card, incase one throws an error. There is also a piece of homebrew that changes your Wii's region, but modifying you Wii in a large way is not recommended, as Nintendo could break it with an update, and large modifications are not completely understood.

FreeLoader works in the Wii, but I'm pretty sure it won't play them stock. You'll need a seperate memory card for japanese save games.

Also, if you have any interest in getting an Action Replay, it also works for playing imports. Be aware that only the newer versions of the discs work in the Wii, so a used copy may not work. I"m well aware that the Wii is not region coded, since American consoles can obviously play Japanese games. But does it work with GCN games as well?

MyollnirCatra - 12 years ago. Top Voted Answer. No it can't as GameCube games are still region locked. Try buying an imported GCN. Oh wells. More topics from this board Wii2hdmi no sound?

Puckswack12 3 years ago 1 I've had Free Loader devices for systems before but I can't find one that would work on my American Wii console on eBay.
