Datel releases Wii-compatible Freeloader discs for Gamecube titles |
Ó
Datel's Freeloader for the Gamecube was a godsend for gamers who were itching to try out some region-locked games. It gave Gamecube owners anywhere in the world an easy and cheap way to play games from anywhere else in the world.Then comes the region-locked Wii. Some versions of the de-zoning disc worked with the Wii, but some wouldn't. In order to remedy the situation, Datel has released a bunch of Wii-compatible Freeloader discs. According to Siliconera, there are four versions of the Wii-ready Freeloader and one multi region disc that works with all Gamecubes and Japanese Wii consoles.
Unfortunately, these updated discs only allow import game playback of Gamecube titles. Wii titles are not yet supported. On the bright side, Datel is also reportedly experimenting with the Wii, and a Wii Freeloader is probably going to surface soon. Hopefully it won't encounter the delays that plagued the Gamecube Freeloader.

That's some good news finally
Does this work with the European Wii? I know there were troubles with loading the Action Replay in European Wii's (As I found out!)
I have a UK version of AR and that works on a US Wii perfectly I don't really need this, I'm serious about this it does work on my Wii all firmware updated as well. i can take pics of it but i dunno how
... umm how to like sent it to you guys..
There's a compatibility table at http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-17-71-1g-74-1as-49-en.html I hope this helps. :)
The Action Replay with Free Loader does work with Wii. This IS NOT an Action Replay, it's just the Free Loader boot disc by itself. the old FL boot discs don't work with Wii, that's why this update is available. I emailed them a few days ago asking if they were going to offer free upgrades fro previous buyers as they did between 1.04 and 1.06. I've not heard back yet :P
What if Nintendo puts a fix for this in the next firmware so that it wont work either? Xp
