Is it bad if i "get hold" of a "freeloader"?!?!?! to use with my chipped Wii?
Good to hear! I hope I will get mine today aswell (also six days after it shipped). I played the crap out of brawl over the weekend with a friend who has an american wii, and I can't wait to play it at home! What an awesome game. There are so many things to do in brawl, it's insane!Stormbringer said:YES! Just received my long awaited freeloader from Divineo a whole 6 days after it shipped.

Ok, i've got a weird problem concerning No More Heroes - sometimes during missions Travis gets a phone call, but the conversation doesn't seem to load, so i'm left walking along without hearing anything until the calls finished and I can resume the game. This happen to anyone else playing the US version on a PAL console?

I don't think it's the TV either. I've tried it on another one (a 4-months old Sony Bravia) and it's not working either. Same problem. Freeloader runs, the Wii recognises NMH, but when I start it, it just goes black. The Wii's making noise though, so I think it's still trying to run the disc.
Even that new one? You're telling me that Bravia, that's only a few months old, isn't recognising the NTSC signal either? Why the fuck isn't it even loading. It should be giving graphical glitches, but the game isn't even starting up. I fear it might be my Wii itself.zoukka said:
*Mutters about not getting any news on his Freeloader*
Smash Bros. Brawl is definitely going to arrive before this abomination does. It's going to be sat there on my desk. Mocking me. Over and over again.
I bet I'll wake up one night and it'll be sat at the base of the bed staring at me. :|

Well, I got in my copy of Brawl today.
I did the alternate method, installed the update. But after trying to load the game in the disc channel everything just goes black and my TV doesn't receive any signal from the Wii. I tried it twice, same thing happens. It displays the Brawl splash screen in the Disc channel, but won't load the game.
Does this mean that my Wii is incapable of reading the Brawl disc? Am I having the same issue that some US brawl players had with their Wii?
This is pissing me off, I was so looking forward to playing it this week.

Go into the 'Screen' settings and change it to 480i 60hz

Thanks for that.broadwayrock said:
It was my own stupid fault, i'd changed the settings to test my GC games with freeloader on an old crt tv and forgotten to change it back to 480p when I connected it to my normal TV. Works fine at 480p.

I don't think you should give up that easily. Have you tried different cables? Maybe you should try it with an RGB cable if your tv supports it (for the 60hz).
kinda clueless as to why it wouldn't work on a hd set... did you connect it with composite cables there too?
Yeah, I tried composite on the HD one. I don't have any other cables, and I'm not really willing to buy a new cable, only to find out it's still not working. I think I'll just buy the Euro version. I'm sick of this waiting. I want to play NMH and I don't care anymore if it has blood or not.Darunia said:
I'll keep Freeloader and the US NMH though. I hope I can figure out what the hell's going wrong.
I should've never cancelled my NMH pre-order. =(
EDIT: WOAH NOW IT WORKS? I changed the language setting to English. Now the game DOES load, but it's all in black&white (playing in b&w has it charm though). So, it must be the TV after all. At least I now know it's not my Wii or NMH disc or something.

How about making a website solely dedicated to a Freeloader compatibility list? Don't get me wrong, this thread is wonderful and Ramenman is doing a great job - but the post will be cluttered and hard to read after a while.
A site could have a search, sort by and a must-have web2.0 ajax game submitter
Heres a quick and ugly mock-up filled with tables and an iframe
Not sure my php skills are up to the job though

A wiki would do the job imho.woobit said:How about making a website solely dedicated to a Freeloader compatibility list? Don't get me wrong, this thread is wonderful and Ramenman is doing a great job - but the post will be cluttered and hard to read after a while.

I just tried out Naruto Shippuden: Gekitou Ninja Taisen EX 2 on my PAL Wii and it works great (although for about ten minutes it didn't work, until I realised that the moon language was telling me to se-pu-rate my GC controllers from the consoles ^_^).

Mine was black and white, so I dragged my Megadrive TV down from upstairs (the TV is like 10 years old and tiny) and it was in colour. What the fuck is up with manufacturers selling supposedly midrange TVs today that have less features than TVs that were shit ten years ago?
