Don't do update
The freeloader is good but when you do the Wii updates it stops it from working.

Finally!
I can play Bio Hazard again on my Gamecube!

it WAS great
this was a great product, i used it to play Kururin Squash on my PAL wii, but now thanks to the latest Wii update it's useless.

and i had just bought puzzle collection and Capcom vs. snk 2, i guess i'll never get to play them, thanks to Nintendo.

good product
but no longer works, due to the 3.0 wii firmware update.

perfection
I bought a gamecube late. i've only had mine for half a year now. but i bought it because this person i know had this freeloader and i've never had as much ease as witht his. i've used various differnt methods for ps one to play import includding modding. but this is safest and easiest way i've ever found. i have naruto gektou ninja taisen 2-4 and they all work well. i'm very satisfied for it on gamecube. i heard a rumour about gamecubes that arent purple not working as well but i don't know if theres any truth to it as mine is the normal color. can't go wrong with this. if only i could find something that worked as well on ps2.....

No title
Doesn't work on my Wii (says unable to read disk with freeloader) but I still have a gamecube ^_^

WOOT
great product, have not had a problem on my aussie wii! works great! thanks playasia!

WOO!
Thanks to this I'm now buying lots of Japanese Gamecube games just to see what I've missed (I have a Gamecube but never really got any decent games for it).
I'm glad I'm keeping my Gamecube because after reading about all the problems people are having with some games not playing on the Wii then I know I can just stick it in my Gamecube =]
So Freeloader = More money for play-asia =P lol

*****
This is a sweet product! Oh and if you are having a bit of "hardships" in getting Naruto games to work on the Wii, JUST USE THE GAMECUBE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Doesn't work WELL with some Japanese games on Wii
As one has said. It doesn't work very well with Naruto 3, 4 and, in my case, World Fighters.

But, there is a way to make it work:

World Fighters: Eject the game disk as soon as the Hudson logo video starts. A message error will be shown. Insert again the game disk and the game should start normally.

Naruto: Similar to WF: Eject the disk at the Press Start screen. Press Start and the game will prompt you to insert the disk again. Do it and the game should play normally.

Stop complaining
You have to have the older Freeloader to work some games, as well as this one.

Big deal people, stop complaning, Datel did their best; if you really care then buy a Japanese Wii!!!

This does NOT work with Naruto: GNT 4 or 3 on the Wii
I have tested this product thoroughly, and GNT will load but come up with an error after entering the menu.

The only way i have been able to get it to work is to :
1/ Load the Freeloader 1.0 E
2/ Then Eject 1.0E this and load the older Freeloader 1.06b
3/ Then Eject this and load either of the Naruto GNT's

Its laborious but it works

Works on Aussie PAL Wii
This freeloader works on Australian PAL Wii !
excellent I can now play NTSC games on my Wii

Doesn't work with some unmentioned japanese games.
This item doesn't work with the japanese Ikaruga & japanese Shikigami no Shiro II for Gamecube.

It isn't very compatible
I have tested some games and they don't work.
In order to work, you have to insert the new freeloader, then the old freeloader and then the game. Pity...

doesn't work good with naruto 4 jap ,
doesn't work good with naruto 4 jap , with wii Pal !!??!!!!!!!!

super
