Hi,
I have a European Wii with the latest official Firmware (no homebrew yet) and would like to buy some Virtual Console games from the US Shop (and maybe Japan's shop as well) that aren't running in slow motion.
I already searched a bit and found
this solution posted in a different topic. However, as it's 3 years old...
I also read somewhere else that the newest shop channel update somehow prevents region switching (that was in an faq from half a year ago).
So before I try anything outdated, I wanted to ask here:
1. Is it possible to buy other regions' VC games? (Which homebrew apps are needed?)
2. Can I use the points already on my Wii to buy those games? If not...
2a. Do I need to buy Point Cards from that specific region or can I use my European Credit Card to buy points on the other Wii Shop?
3. Will I be able to switch back to my old settings without losing my download History, remaining Points or the Club Nintendo connectivity on the European Channel? (and still being able to play the other regions' games)
You don't have to explain in detail how to get Homebrew running etc, the Homebrew tutorial seems simple enough!
Thank you for all the work you're putting into this!
