Fun:
I was most disappointed. My kids got a Wii console as a present from our friend in the US. They have been desperate for new games. The problem being that all the european games available in the UK will not play. I naively believed the information on the Amazon UK site regarding the freeloader. The picture of the product or the information on the page fails to show what is in the box. The version that I got is for the EU and it says so on the box cover! but the picture on line is of a region-less product. This kind of misinformation wasted my money and my time and worse, caused a great disappointment to my kids. Beware. The freeloader itself is region restricted, so the european zone freeloader WILL NOT PLAY on a US console.

Fun:
If You upgrade the Wii firmware to the latest 3.3 update sent on June 18th then you Freeloader will be disabled.Either don't upgrade firmware or don't buy this. I bought mine a week ago and now can't get it to work due to upgrade. Beware!!!

Fun:
Although I do not own this particular product, it is worth noting that the latest firmware update for the Nintendo Wii (3.3) has now disabled the use of this Freeloader. I was quite interested in getting one for the US version of No More Heroes but I will now have to wait until a new revision that actually works with updated Wii's is released.

Not worth it!
This - when it worked - took ages to load and was too much trouble to use regularly. Then, as soon as I bought a new game, an update from Nintendo disabled the Freeloader,... Read more

Be very careful - check your firmware
This was a replacement for a cracked disc we had and as we don't use our Wii online so there was no reason to worry about firmware upgrades (or so I thought). Read more

Okay...
The freeloader is very useful as games from the USA are normally a lot cheaper and they are normally out there before they are out in europe. works. Read more

Un timo
Este producto no funciona. Lo peor es que nadie te dice que si la versión de tu WII es superior a la 3.2 no va funcionar. Read more

It works...most of the times
My Wii is version 3.2. Freeloader works with 2 out of 3 games I bought in US. It does not work with "Obscure", no way to launch it. Read more

It's great as long you've never taken your Wii online.
The above pretty much sums it up. I've got the US version of No More Heroes and know that as soon as I take my Wii online (which I'm not able to at the minute), that's it, the... Read more
