Will a wii game from US work on my wii UK console, and also DS query?

Question

Going to Orlando soon and usually stock up on DS games which work fine with our UK DS's. Want to buy Wii games to play on UK Wii will they work?

Also want to buy a new DS in Orlando will the US console play the UK games we have already? Thanx!

Answer 1

I think it will if it doesnt work than its becuz its from the UK.

Answer 2

no they wont work

the wii is region coded and wont work with out of region games

if u have a mod-chip installed you can have partial multi region (about 70 percent), and there are unlicensed programs you can install which i can explain if u email me at [e-mail], but no u cant just play out of region games like you can on ds.

but yes the ds is multiregion and the us ds will play uk games

the main reason the wii isnt, is the difference in video modes, pal and ntsc, and so an ntsc (american) game wont work with a pal tv. the ds doesnt have this problem as the screens are all the same

Answer 3

I think that Wii's are region coded, meaning that you can only play games released in the region you bought your Wii. Since you live in the UK, you can only play PAL games.

Don't listen to the other people who say it will work. Just because a game is in the same language, doesn't mean it will work with another region's console.

Answer 4

I'm pretty sure it will, You might want to look further into this for yourself incase I'm wrong.

Answer 5

yes it will and the domanant language in uk is english right... it will just be what i call americanized english if you understand that...
