you can play NTSC copies of brawl on a PAL wii, you just need to use geckoOS (which apparently will be an option for the demo/final release). Oh and an NTSC compatable tv, otherwise the picture is black and white
I'm 99% sure that using component cables bypasses the difference in colour modulation for NTSC and PAL, so all you would need is a TV that can display at 60Hz, which should be common enough...

This should work. The PAL version of Pikmin 2 works on my NTSC Wii with the component cables, but only in progressive scan.

He's talking about not owning a Wii, not having a PAL one.

Project M demo is gonna be released on monday!....


..and I'm like the only person in my country who's hyped -.-
Hehe m2 unless Paprika_killer is hyped which i doubt he is.

Why release pm on Monday and not on Friday Saturday or Sunday, are there still some bugs in need of fixing before finalizing the demo?

Not that i have problems with monday though, it's just most people have school/work on Monday;)

i think that question was already answered, they're testing it in the wild this weekend in smashfests they go to in person...a final stress test, if you will.

EDIT: also it was announced 01-07-10 and will be released 02-07-11
release on the 8th for poeticness of +1 year, +1 month, +1 day?

So will we only have a demo until the beta comes out? Or will we get 4-6 characters and important tweaks added periodically until it evolves into the final version?

Guys, just buy a Wii. Running games in Dolphin is illegal and you can't expect these poeple to soil their hands with illegal behaviours on your behalf.

Running games in an emulator is perfectly legal in both Canada and most States, so long as you are running the actual game.

Not that this bothers me in the slightest. I'm probably going to leave Project M alone for a bit, I main Mewtwo in Melee and have a tournament coming up, playing P:M probably won't help me too much.

Oh, and a Brawl tourney too, but playing either one will make me better in that.

Wow. Do you want to know why I don't tell people how cars work and what you should do with them? That's because I don't know anything about cars. You should take the same advice. Using emulators is not illegal. Using them to play games you don't personally own is illegal. If emulators were illegal, software such as VMWare which emulate operating systems would be, but they're not.

I'm no idiot. It is perfectly legal to run emulators when you actually have a copy of the game. However many are asking because they don't have the game. This will force some to buy an actual copy is all.

Well to be fair, no one said they don't have the game, they just said they don't have a wii. That and the way you worded it said you can't use emulators at all.

he was working with the implications...

then again I don't know how the laws in Chile are (in IYM!'s case) but I'm assuming it's the same (then again...are they enforced? Dominican Republic has very similar laws to the US yet it's only enforced if it benefits their corrupt government)

still, I'm sure the team doesn't want to risk their hard work going to **** because 1-3 individuals don't feel like/are unable to buy a Wii and/or a copy of Brawl...
