...anyone here willing to mod their Wii?

That way, there's nothing stopping us from importing and playing THIS.

Language barrier be damned, any 2D fighting game that lets you play as Viewtiful Joe is a winner in my book.

Actually, if you have a copy of Twilight Princess, you can take advantage of a special hack and install a homebrew channel that includes a freeloader. The problem is that future system updates could potentially cause the channel to not work or, worst case scenario, possibly even brick your Wii.

The game's out now...and oh, how I'd love to be playing it at this very moment...

LUKE www.animenewsnetwork.com/the-x-button/2008-12-17 read their comment on it

[cyberlink420]

Yeah, but I still don't know whether it's worth risking a self-bricking. If only Club still had a Wii to call its own...

[Firemage]

Luke, you missed when they said it wasn't region locked
"and I note with some relief that the Japanese edition doesn't demand painful sacrifices of anyone trying to run it on a North American Wii."

[cyberlink420]

It IS region locked, though. They're just saying that the modding process is super-easy.

I hope the game comes out in America. *crosses fingers* I lack the knowledge to mod anything but damn it, that game looks just to awesome. any updates on them getting North American rights?

[cyberlink420]

It's probably not going to happen, especially considering that Capcom apparently posted a pretty significant loss last year, but if you really want to play, a few club members (including myself) have modded our Wiis and got the game working. I know for sure I'll be bringing it on Friday if you want to play.

[snowboundspirit]

I do.
