Cool, I'll consider it for these two games sometime in the future. I'm sure I could have figured it out on my own, I just never tried to find an emulator or Wii Rip.

 

If you do mod your Wii and unlock it, you have to play Zangeki no Reginleiv.

you have to

A fellow Reginleiver, eh?

Yup, that was a nice game. I kinda understand why NoA and NoE passed on it (hideous slowdown and lol physics), but there was nothing quite so satisfying as blowing a frost giant's arms off from 500 meters away and watching his limbless torso flop to the ground.

Aside from that dickfucking giant airship, anyway, it was a fun game.

I've been flip-flopping over whether to get this game. Is there variety in it, and just how bad IS the slowdown? Is it unplayable?

Slowdown only gets bad when you kill large numbers of enemies at once (with the explosive weapons that Freya can use). With her brother, who can only use swords, hammers, and bows, you never really get it.

Some chapters are Frey only, some are Freya only, most allow you to choose. He gets physical weapons and more HP, she gets magic (though you need at least one physical weapon at all times to allow magic to restore, which is the critical juncture of Freya strategies because you need to learn how best to survive and quickly restore magic during downtimes). There's a low variety of enemies, but they keep changing up the scenario.
