The Freeloader seems to be of primary importance to European gamers who want to play games the year they come out. But a side effect of that functionality is something that many American and European gamers have always striven for: the ability to play Japanese games. And as for Japanese gamers, we're sure there's something they haven't gotten yet -- like Ninjabread Man.Now that (for twenty bucks) the world of Wii gaming is wide open, what import would you most like to play? And don't say Smash Bros., because that's boring. We know Smash Bros. Think of something else. As for us, we have this embarrassing temptation to play Miburi & Teburi.

Nigeria: the graphics have amazing gameplay said...
I'm getting Bloody No More Heroes, Fire Emblem, and Phoenix Wright. And maybe Opoona, if Koei don't decide on a Euro release.
So yeah, it's a couple of games.
I'll be finally playing something other than Nights - which is the only game I have at the moment.

Like i said before, that Youtouden game. I sincerely doubt that one will be making it west of the Pacific Rim

If I could read more than the occasional random word/character in Japanese, I wouldn't mind giving that Common Sense Training game a whirl.

if this doesnt get nuked by updates its a very tempting purchase, as it stands im not really looking forwards to many wii games anyways, but having the option to import will certainly make me happy once some nice stuff shows up

Naruto Shippuuden Gekitou Ninja Taisen EX & EX2! I already have Naruto GNT 3 & 4 for Gamecube, and I love them. I tried Naruto: Clash of the Ninja (US release) at a store once, but ended up losing on purpose just to get Naruto to shut up. Every time I used a special, he yelled "BELIEVE IT!" I would never willingly play the US version again. I'm so psyched, I've already ordered my Freeloader.

Well apart from everything that's been mentioned.....cheaper games as I'll import every game now...shipping is usually like $7 so with a game price of like $30/40/50 it's still way cheaper than the standard UK price. Weak/dying dollar ftw! Bye bye rip off Britain :D

For "Perverted", beware that you won't be able to play online with games from other zones,
But your're right, it's way cheaper, even in France!

As I mentioned in the other Wiiloader topic, I finally gave up on it and sold my already-imported game a few weeks ago. If I can manage to get a job, and therefore some money, I might get this and Naruto Shippuden: Gekitou Ninja Taisen EX 2* but I'm still worried about a firmware update. Especially now that they can sell games that require and update. Now, if Karous doesn't make it to the US... then I'd have some real incentive.
*chicks dig guys who can memorize really long japanese titles, right? Right? I've also go Naruto: Saikyou Ninja Daikeshyu 3. It's a terrible, terrible game but I memorized the title.
