The 'I Have My PAL Wii' Thread!

clearly many people are unable to read the thread title and first post ..
Only post if you actually have your console or this thread will keep getting de-railed off-topic and miss the point entirely.

Just downloaded Super Star Soldier for my PAL Wii. It runs in 480i.

So maybe PC Engine games all run in 60 Hz?

I know this sounds like stating the obvious but I guess this means that the UK service is up and running. What about WiiConnect24, registering codes and the suchlike (I'm guessing that the news and weather are still not available)? When I tried last Friday I got nothing and now I've left it at work tonight - bah!

At least there's that. Are we going to bombard with NoE with e-mails asking them to issue an update so that the other games can run properly for PAL owners?

There could be a list of 50/60Hz compatibility here in NTSC-UK.

they should be 60hz period tbh.

Yeah, missing 60 hz sucks, but in the other hand, Virtual Console is marketed as a nostalgia trip. Nintendo promises games that look and feel perfectly same as when you were playing them as a kid.

But yeah, back on topic. I'm trying to get my Euro Wii in friday. It should be fairly easy job, as it Wii hasn't been advertised at all by local distributor.

Yeah got mine today as well from work (Gamestation) and been enjoying Wii Sports for a good few hours now! Got COD3 too but wasn't too impressed with that, but thats a different story.

I'm really bummed about this 50hz rubbish as well, but if I import a US Wii, I won't be able to buy the PAL or NTSC virtual console games, right? Will I be able to go online at all?

The whole regional VC thing is confusing me at the moment - I haven't heard any confirmation as to what it does and doesn't allow...

Sorry to add to the derailment!
