i guess its the trend that continues that us version is better

but ya what shadoken said is right korean wii has by default korean language........buy korean wii if u know how to read korean and dont intend to mod it :P.........jus kiddin

but you can also look for the uk wii as the games are in pal region and i guess most of the games available here are pal games(not very sure abt this tho)

Sidco,

 

To answer your question, yes Korean Wii can be softmodded to support English.

And yes, it's always better to get a US/EUR Wii.

 

BUT, if you're buying the Wii just to complete your console collection then how does the region matter? After a week of gaming sessions, it's just going to sit like a trophy and gather dust before you decide to sell it on the Trading Post.

 

Buy a Wii for the right reasons man. Think long and hard about it. With so many awesome titles coming out in 2010 for the other consoles, do you really need a Wii?

Don't rush into a sale.

That's precisely the reason why I don't have a Wii yet.

Everything sounds good to me and all, but what I reall need to know is what is the difference between the two consoles. I mean why is it so Imp to get a US wii? I intend to get it modded for india so will the US one be modable?

Yeah i understand bout the new titles, its just that my ps3 and xbox are feeling alone. They need a threesome.

There is no difference in the Wii man .. Get any damn region wii and it will work .. Most of the Korean ones have english on it anyways which u cna check before buying .. Others are suggesting UK Wii cuz u will get PAL games only in india but i doubt u will be buying originals hence it makes no difference .. once you mod it and get a loader in it you can play any god damn region games .. But on an another note buy it only if you have loads of friends coming over every other day .. it aint no fun playing Wii all by yourself .. oh bty expect a 2-3K diff in the prices of Korean and US Wiii . incase you are modding it make sure its firmware is 4.0 or less et etc ..

Is it possible to buy a modded wii? I mean i just want to purchase it off a shelf and push in some "non-original" games. Can this be done, im really not cool about taking it to a modder. And the price difference favors the US wii i assume being more expensive. Confirm!

bty i doubt the one prashaant is selling would have the USB Modz n all which allow you to play the games directly off USB .. you need to read some stuff to get some ahem games working mostly like what is a .dol file etc ..

 

f**k...theres a lot i have to learn huh! Let3WizZard is the process of selling me a Wii he has. But i cant still find out the truth.

 

If i buy a Korean one, will i be able to see english on it as i cannot read korean. Sorry asses, but my parents could not afford to send me to korea to do my schooling.

Im planning on getting a modded korean wii. my question is if i will be able to see english on the damn screen!

HELP
