@Devil1976:
Try lurking and reading up around forums such as GBATemp.net, or
MaxConsole. They're pretty helpful people, as long as you don't
spam or act like a n00b. ^^
Non-original games can be gotten mostly from those
gui-gui-sui-sui stalls that sell pirated software and PS2/PC games
and suddenly disappear like the next day. The shops sell Wii games
too, but I didn't have a Wii back then, so didn't take much notice.
Don't see them around anymore, though. Singapore Police must've
busted a few rings or something. >.>
I got my Wii set from SC Games at Jalan Besar Road. Was a tad
more expensive than I expected, but they seem to know their stuff
quite well. Quite a reliable place. Also, all those WiiSports add
ons and extra Wii-motes/Nunchucks were cheaper than other
places.
Yeah, before modification, a Wii can only play games from the
region it is from, either PAL or NTSC, and original games.
With modification, (Ie. Soldering a chip into the Wii
Motherboard), you can play nearly all games from all regions, and
pirated/burnt games as well
Some shops sell readily modified sets, but if you like a
challenge, can buy the chip and go home to solder yourself. No
guarantees, though. ^^;
@cuddles:
Most people who mod their Wiis live in America, so of course
they wouldn't know any local info... I heard Yahoo Auctions got
some guy selling like $4.50 for one game and if buy in bulk got
good discount, though. Might try that.
I'm downloading from Bitorrent now. After leaving my computer on
for like 4 days, less than 20% is done. Sometimes it's even worse,
0 Seeders, 0 Leechers. So, yeah. BT's quite bad to download older
Wii games.
About Wii Channels, the only one I wanted was the internet one.
Got it now, though. (Not many Wii channels around to use anyways.
>.>)
VC games I wanna play lots, since I've never owned a Gamecube or
Nintendo 64. (Way before my time. >.>)
eh.. me not the one looking for mods or what.. just asking about
it.. as I only read about mod on jap sets..
anyway I won't be modding the set. I mean, I don't have time to
buy and play that many games. and I don't play jap games, so I
don't see the need for modding, to me.
the Main reason why I support nintendo is for Zelda. been
playing zelda since the gameboy days.. and I think Nintendo has
done a great job bringing interactive unique gaming experience to
us. Before wii, people would wish they could do more with
their controllers.
I'm not rich, but I feel that sometimes, if you can afford it,
we should support the creators. Even for music, I still buy cds of
my fav artisties. if you're like still schooling, maybe some points
I made can be overlooked. :P
