Was it mentioned it the thread yet?Foffy said:I still see that A Kappa's Trail, a DSiWare game, is still not listed as a game to be released in the US but not Europe.
I guess we're ignoring download-only games?
I will be going through and adding any suggestions that were placed in the thread over the weekend or any I missed originally soon.
WiiWare and DSiWare games can be added as long as someone points them out.

Can someone point me to some good import websites that have European games and will ship to the US? Sorry if I missed someone already posting some. I skimmed and didn't see anything. Maybe that would be a good thing to post in the OP.
I just wanted to note that I recently bought the PAL version of Disaster: Day of Crisis for my softmodded NTSC-U Wii-- and it's really a fun game. It is cheesy, but in a good way.
I just love how the suits at NoA decided that I couldn't play this one. It seems designed for the NA market, for god's sake.
Lots of things to do in the game, and the weapon/character upgrades give it decent replayability.

I swear I have trouble even with the simplest explanations.
I followed the step by step guide for the Smash Bros exploit, and when I opened up the stage builder with my SD card the game froze and there's a buzzing sound now.
Help? It tells me to wait for the Homebrew to install, or did I mess it up?

Hopefully someone can help you. I haven't installed HB yet so I'm worthless beyond providing that link. Good luck!
I have a feeling they are going to announce Last Story and Xenoblade for NA, but maybe for early 2012, maybe even on the same disc.
They are seeing their mistakes, there is no way they are just overlooking the huge outcry for these games. I mean c'mon, Last Story is even hitting Australia!
They will come to NA, just a matter of if it will be too little too late.

Why would you do that?

It sounds like your SD card may have been corrupted. Run a disk check. If you don't know how, then assuming you're in Windows, here's how:Duderz said:
- Put the SD card in your computer and go to [My] Computer
- right-click the SD card drive and click Properties at the bottom of the pop-up menu
- Click the Tools tab, and under Error-checking, click Check now.
- Check "Automatically fix file system errors" and then start the scan.
Edit: Nevermind, disregard that. IF you renamed your Private folder, then you won't see the VC games on the SD card. Don't worry about them, they're still on your SD card.

Australia is the same region as Europe, so I don't see what's weird they are releasing it there.
No, it won't come in NA, just accept it and import.

Fire Emblem 1 for NES was released. Fire Emblem 3 for SNES is a direct story sequel to FE1 which also includes a remake of FE1. FE
S is a (new, different) remake of FE1 alone and the new one is a remake of only the new part of FE3, not the remake part.Gotcha. Thanks.charlequin said:Fire Emblem 1 for NES was released. Fire Emblem 3 for SNES is a direct story sequel to FE1 which also includes a remake of FE1. FE

Great thread, I'm gonna importing The Last Story PAL myself. I would import the Jap version, but as far as I know there's no translation patch. And looking through the OP, damn I want Project Hacker to hit the states now...
So some statistics:
European gamers did not receive 32 GBA games which NCL published in Japan. Another one was only released in France.
North American gamers passed out on 31 GBA games which NCL published in Japan. Additional 3 NCL games were released by 3rd parties in the US.
European gamers did not receive 8 GCN games which NCL published in Japan. Another one was only released in France.
North American gamers passed out on 6 GCN games which NCL published in Japan. Another NCL game was released by Atlus in the US.

I decided to try and soft mod my Wii since it's no longer reading discs in an attempt to load games from a HDD and also use Dolphin. I'm using the Indiana Jones game and ran into a problem once I the homebrew started to load. Below is what the screen says and the instructions from the OP:
Cleaning up environment... Eventhook release failed with code 0
OK.
SD card detected
Opening boot.elf:
boot.elf not found (-1)
USBGecko not found
No code found to load, hanging.
Edit -
After searching the web, I found a common problem with the Indiana Pwns hack is that people are using the wrong type of SD card. Make sure that it's not SDHC and that it's 2GB or less.
My problem however was that there was no boot.elf file in the Indiana Pwns zip. I copied it from the hackmii folder and pasted it in the main menu of the SD card. Now I have the homebrew channel.
Here's a link to a video that helped:

I ran into the error right after the bolded part. Can someone help me troubleshoot what's wrong?
