Hello all,

Need some advice here.
I've just got myself an unmodded UK PAL Wii and updated to latest 3.4 firmware. (Currently in UK)
Will be returning to Malaysia for good in September 2009.

My questions are :

1. Can I still get ori PAL UK games for my Wii in Malaysia? A lot of discussion here on US & Jap games, but no mention of UK PAL..... If I can't, then I need to get a shetload of games here before going back.

2. Will the internet function still work when I'm out of the region I bought it from? I mean is the internet function region-locked too? What about getting WiiWare games on the Shopping Channel?

Thanks

so the 140-200 you're quoting will be for NTSC games right?
I mean if I were to just walk into a local Malaysian store and pick up an ori game, it'll most likely NOT work on my Wii correct?

How easy is it to get PAL games? And lastly, will the Aus PAL games work with my UK one?

Cheers for the tips....

Good luck mate sleep.gif

I'm an eBay regular and having the hardest time locating PAL games that's reasonably priced and willing to ship to Malaysia. Kyo knows it all sleep.gif

yup, you can take the advice from gundam. it is very very hard to get Pal games here.

So, its either you sell it there and get a new US one here, or you could get it modded. Sadly.

here's what I did with GH Metallica.

Popped the disc in, watched the mocap videos.

Weep and counted the profits I got selling them. tongue.gif

what happen if i get it modded? any repercussion?

me newbie. you sifoo smile.gif

Better buy lots of games before coming back seriously. I don't understand why most UK/Australian seller don't want to ship to Malaysia.

i'm not sure about games, but i have bought few stuffs of ebay from UK sellers when i was back in malaysia.

any luck gundam buying PAL games from the UK? if yes, how much did they charge u for shipping? in GBP please smile.gif

well, i'm not really a serious gamer. but games like guitar hero, wii fit et. al. are all good games.
