I swear I ordered the Freeloader the day (or day after) it was announced. How come some of you guys have it dispatched?

Boooo. =(

Just used the air duster on the disc slot for a little test. My metroid Prime 3 disc was a little dusty when I put it in and used the Air duster.

Just brought the disc out, and it was spotless. Think I'mma be OK =D

well me and the guys meet up on mondays aswell if your ever free. Just chat to me on msn sometime. Id play online but its terrible. Lag makes it unbearable and brawl is the time of game that needs to be played in person.

I thought that while matches over the atlantic would be laggy european ones would be lag free?

And if my brawl works then my ice climbers will be kicking arse all over wifi.:laugh:

Thanks for the advice.

My game has just been dispatched from Playasia, so that's 5 - 10 days for it to get here.

I'll give codejunkies 3 more days, then I'll prolly go with 365.

Jellybelly - Birmingham - Nottingham aren't very far away, so hopefully lag won't be that bad. I'll see your Ice Climbers and raise you a Toon Link.

Hey since the Europe game is not out yet won't that mean we will need to connect to the ?American? Server, since we have the American game. Which will put even more lag?



EDIT: Unless it's with friend codes those might work well if the person is in Europe too.

I dont think its the servers that are the problem. Wants your connected it should go on your local connection between the two. Im sure ive read someone post that in detail. Its going to be laggy :( regardless.

Where do you get your Wii code from? O.o [/newb]
It's on the front cover of your Wii's address book. On the Wii Menu, click the message icon in the lower right, then on the notice board click the pen-and-paper icon in the lower left. Then click Address Book. Your number is on the cover.

If I get online working, I'm gonna add you, ST - it'll be good to play against another Scot.

Where you talking to me?

Sorry lol...

EDIT: NEVER MIND LOL.

So who reckons their Freeloader/Brawl will turn up today? (assuming your posting from the UK and its 1am like it is for me)

Still no word on the firmware issue? Went through the last 7 pages and it seems no one's got it yet. :(

I'm thinking of ordering one of these soon. But I need confirmation that it will allow me to play an American Brawl on a PAL Wii.

I guess it's too early to know?

Soluble Toast, it's people like you we love. People who will sacrifice and do the good deeds that need to be done.

Your testing will keep me on my toes throughout today! :D

Be sure to test WiFi w/ EU/Japan/US. :p

Well, I'll be testing it with my JP version to see how well it works. It's all a bit confusing.

Well, I ordered from 365games last night. Payment has already been received, so I'm kinda hoping it will ship today. They said it could take up to 14 days, but I ordered something from Amazon.co.uk, on a monday evening, and that arrived that friday.

So here's hoping, the Netherlands are afteral kinda next door for the UK ^^
