Japanese Wii Questions.

[FoulPlay]

1: Can you change the CONSOLE language to English?
2: Can you connect to the internet in other countries? E.g: America + The Whole Of Europe.
3: Can you change the language in games? (E.g: Twilight Princess, Mario Galaxy, ETC.)

I'm considering buying a Japanese Wii for Brawl as Europe doesn't get Brawl for ages, but I'd hate to play it in Japanese and every other game I'll buy for the Japanese Wii in Japanese... :/

Help answering these questions are greatly appreciated, These questions are related to someone buying brawl so it is related to this section of the boards!

1. no
2. probably yes, but you'll have to deal with a browser in japanese, and shop channels that connect only to the japanese Nintendo WFC. meaning VC games in japanese.
3. depending on the game, SSBX might have that options, most other games probably don't.

1) not sure...but I wouldn't vote positive...AFAIK The system is stuck on JP.
2) I THINK you can...I don't see why not...But I think you might need JP Wii Point cards to buy stuff off the net...>_>;;
3) That's a game to game type of question...Some can...and well....some can't...If Melee's like Brawl though A US option SHOULD be there...

Sorry I can't be of much help! ;-;

Well, i dont know about the JpN Wii console, but you should rather go for the NA Wii.

When it comes to games, It realy Sucks to live in Europe.

*facepalm*
Check your currency converter.
50 pound > 25 Dollars.
For the people who didn't know I mean > = worth more than.

No FoulPlay, Pluvia is right. The pound is stronger then the dollar.

Thats what I meant.
:/
I'm from the UK I have to know these things for importing. Obviously you do too. You just either mis-judged or mis-read.
£ > (> = ABOVE IN STRENGTH) $

E.g:
£50 > $25

Meaning that:
£50 = $100(or 99$)
$25 = £12.50 (Possibly £12 or £11.50)

Sorry I seem to have mis-read it lol... :/
My Mistake, no one elses.

Does anyone know where to get there Wii Modded? I'd only buy a Japanese console if it was able to be translated into Eng by a command in the console.
