It's only a matter of time before someone learns the system, and makes it region free it always happens. I give em a few months or so before we are playing games from other countries, and getting acess to the library of games for free.
I'm not sure what odd Japanese game you're referring to, but that is an understandable viewpoint. I would like to be able to get any upcoming games that don't make it into the US. I probably won't want them all, but it would be nice to have the option.Which would be fantastic for me, as I am importing a US system and want the odd Japanese game.
It might even bring the game prices down if their was competition from other countries.
I still don't know why they don't make the consoles region free. They have done for the DS and the PSP. It might even bring the game prices down if their was competition from other countries.
Its mainly because of TV systems, if your TV couldn't play title X because your TV won't do PAL or NTSC you would be complaining all the same. The only reason that the PS3 is region free is that HD makes it a moot point, HD is HD across the world. I can still see their being an issue with the PS3 in SD though, but its less of a problem now than it used to be.

that's why I'm importing my Wii...I'll have my Wii sooner (only a couple of days, though), I'll have access to all american Virtual Console games, and I can play US games, which cost about $15 less (free shipping with dvdboxoffice.com) and are often released up to 3 months earlier than in europe
already got mine pre-ordered at videogamesplus.ca
I figured for the weather channel it'd use your IP to determine your area. What's keeping it from forcing you to only get European VC titles?what I'm most mad about is the fact we europeans won't be able to buy any jap or american virtual console games... that's just shit!

That's exactly what I thought the weather channel was for. Not to give you weather but to give the server or web master a location of your Wii.I figured for the weather channel it'd use your IP to determine your area. What's keeping it from forcing you to only get European VC titles?
