Can you play Japanese Wii games on a English Wii?

Answer 1

no they are region protected

This is not necessarily true. There is a way you can play them. You could either install a modchip, which would require you having to open your Wii and solder on wires, which is potentially bad for your console, or you could buy a Freeloader. It is a disc that you insert into your Wii, let it do it's thing, take it out, and put in your English disc! Unfortunately, Nintendo are stopping this from happening. They are making updates that stop the Freeloader from working. So make sure you either haven't updated your console, or update it to version 3.2.

Answer 2

Wiis are region locked meaning that you can only play games from the region you got your Wii from. A game from the US will NOT play on any console not bought in the US. A game from the UK will NOT play on any console not bought in the UK.

But there are a couple of ways around that......

You could either install a modchip, which would require you having to open your Wii and solder on wires, which is potentially bad for your console, or you could mod the software itself and risk making your Wii into an expensive paperweight. Both would obviously void the warranty and should only be done at your own risk and possibly by someone who knows what they are doing!

Answer 3

No it won't . The Wii is region-locked. Sorry.

Answer 4

Yes, you can.

If you have an original Wii you can play any game for Wii.
