blender Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 then it is only logical that brawl will FAIL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssj Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 but nintendo wouldn't have the time to make a decent update that would prevent it frrom working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blender Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 this guy has it working (usa smash + UK freeloader). so it seems to work now (but will most likely FAIL when downloadable content and addons become available.) http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7337&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=425&sid=b7dbe3668b816eee7375af8abc202f6a Apparently, it involves a double insertion of the disc and then a historectomy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssj Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Guys can somebody who has animal crossing on the gc and the wii freeloader please test it. For me the game does load but i get no picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serebii Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Yeah but he said he updated :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaniKazmi Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I'm just wondering, if an update messes up your wii, shouldn't nintendo's warrenty cover it? After all, you haven't modified your console or done anything illegal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, you haven't modified your console or done anything illegal. yes that should be covered... It is not unknown for the firmware to become corrupted especially if there is a power cut midway. (Nothing to do with freeloader) However, if you use a USA update on your EU wii and its screwed, nintendo could screw you if it is obvious that this has happended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelda_Rulez Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Did the ones that updated using the Freeloader get duplicate channels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read the user agreement in the manual and it doesn't say anything about playing other region disks voiding you warrenty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serebii Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 On other news, my freeloader has shipped from Code Junkies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yesteryeargames Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 so we will need to run the free loader 2 times, then put smash in, do the update, and from then on we will just need to use teh free loader i time afterward when we want to play brawl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natty777 Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Codejunkies still havent sent me an email confirming they stopped my order. But the tick box is not there does that mean its been stopped? Because my dad wont order it from gameseek untill he knows they have stopped it. Some things im unclearish about. Do you need to update? Does it work on a pal TV? also does it work on firmware 2.3E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blender Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 How? I've read the user agreement in the manual and it doesn't say anything about playing other region disks voiding you warrenty. i havent read anything but if you use unofficial software (and even unofficial peripherals) why would nintendo support you? Seriously, its just common sense. I dont think nintendo would intentionally brick your wii for playing freeloader as this is not in their interests. However, I doubt they would test their regional updates on alternative region consoles force loaded using freeloader. (Yes, firmware is regional.)

Serebii Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I think all the upgrade is for is double layered disks and thats quite universal. Nintendo should have just gone ahead and made an update of it weeks ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssj Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 The good news is that the freeloader DOES NOT affect your wii's memory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I doubt they would test their regional updates on alternative region consoles force loaded using freeloader. (Yes, firmware is regional.) Because they would have to support you as they have a warranty for one year from purchase. If you are still covered by your warranty, then they have to fix your wii for free(as this is what they have promised in the instruction manual. And as far as i can make out, the freeloader does not break the user agreement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serebii Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Apparently if you update, you will still have 3.2E and all that so the risk seems to be minimal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViPeR Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 CJ have just taken money off me after I did the return check box thing... I've already ordered elsewhere so now it looks as if i'll get 2 freeloaders. One will no doubt be up on ebay in a few days... All I can say is... BASTARDS!
