    Hacking Any way to bypass region lock?

    I bought all of them during my last trip to Japan - and they didn't cost hundreds of dollars. Book Off discounts games severely unless they are in flawless condition... However if the game is in flawless condition - it is quite pricey (only a few hundred yen less than new). Simply having a...

    Hacking Any way to bypass region lock?

    You are right. I am just pissed off that my 7 Wii U games, brought over from Japan are literally useless. So lets just call Nintendo greedy :lol: I don't have this issue with the PS3 or PS4, and am currently playing games on both that were only released in Japan.

    Hacking Any way to bypass region lock?

    Thanks for that, but I call BS. No PS3 or PS4 games I encountered have been Region Locked. I beleive the real issue to be because games cost different prices in different markets. A game that costs roughly $60 in Japan or the US, costs around $15 in Russia. I see this, because my work...

    Hacking Wii U System Update 5.1.1 is out now.

    Oh. Ok. I don't care about the other exploits, but apparently enabling region free on the Wii U is an exploit - because Nintendo is simply ass backwards and mentally handicapped. So that is the "exploit" I am waiting for... The one to let me play my legally purchased games on my console...

    Hacking Any way to bypass region lock?

    No. PS4 is not region lcoked. PS3 games are not region locked. PS2 game region locks are easily bypassed. Wii region lock is easily bypassed. Even Xbox 360 region lock is easily bypassed. The Wii U seems to go OUT of their way to screw over loyal customers. If you read my other...

    Hacking Wii U System Update 5.1.1 is out now.

    Not at all true. I bought a PS3, used it online 24/7, and all my games were not locked. I have 27 games for the PS3 that were only released in Japan, and never had an issue. The Wii U seems to go OUT of their way to literally SCREW their loyal customers by region locking everything.

    Hacking Any way to bypass region lock?

    Ugh. How disappointing. Thank you guys. Now for the $10 million dollar question. If I buy a game in Japan, why would Nintendo prevent me from playing it on my US Wii U? I BOUGHT the game. Give me the right to play it on the console it was MADE FOR... Or at least give me an easy way to bypass...

    Hacking Any way to bypass region lock?

    My main issue with the Wii U is region locking. I travel to Japan at least a few times per year, and love getting games there. My other consoles has a way to bypass that annoying "feature", but my Wii U insists on preventing me from playing my purchased games. Is there any way to ignore...

    Hacking Wii U System Update 5.1.1 is out now.

    Ugh. Thank you. If Nintendo was smart, they would disable region locking on the next update, and I would happily oblige (and update). As it is, I guess I will be without MK8 online ftm. Thank you for the reply.

    Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

    Thank you. People like you give me the best hope to play my Japan bought games on my Wii U, as well as playing emulated SNES and N64 games (the games of my childhood). I have unlimited access to the Japanese import market, having to go there multiple times/year for work, and not being able...

    Hacking How do I get rid of the Wii U update nag?

    Wow Sneaky. So it downloads even if all the IP's are blocked as soon as I game online? Props to Nintendo. That takes both guts and skill. Any way to get rid of the update nag as soon as I turn on my Wii U? I can cancel out of it, but it sure is annoying. Can I reformat my system? Would...

    Hacking Wii U System Update 5.1.1 is out now.

    So wait. I now need an update just to play MK8 online? Wow, never thought that they would keep that data server side. Any way to spoof my version? I am addicted to MK8 online, and don't know if I can stop myself from updating. I haven't played it online in over a week and the single player...

    Hacking How do I get rid of the Wii U update nag?

    Hi all, I have been away for a few weeks and when I came back, my Wii U is asking me to update. I can keep canceling out, but it's getting annoying. I had all the update servers blocked (according to this site), and I really have no idea how an update was even downloaded. The only game I...
