Does anyone know if it's possible yet to play imported games on the Wii? I'm dying to get the naruto title from Japan. I was a big fan of the Gamecube series(and the anime)

No idea, but I thought IGN said that the Naruto game was coming to NA

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

There are a couple mod-chips released for Wii: those might work.

There suppose to be a freeloader for WII and GC consoles, but if they work for all games I don't know. I've got a JP import console myself. Freeloader for Gamecube and WII

I'm a huge fan of Naruto Franchise (manga, anime & games ), and the Naruto Shippuden EX the game I want for my Wii. freeloader, modchip anything anyway that's let me play Naruto on my Wii. As a note : I live in Algeria (North West Africa), and I can tell you I still can't realize that I have a Wii (PAL Version from France) when in Europe, America and even Japan isn't realy easy to get one ).

Nah the one coming to America is a reskined version basically because of where America is in the story, they have 14 Arc 1 characters rather then releasing clash of the ninja 3 with 38.. You get the wii controls and such but you don't get the same exact game. Honestly the English voices... are painful.. it's like they never saw their source content.

Yeah i've been watching the japanese episodes of Naruto Hurricane Chronicles, where the charachters are older have new looks moves and such, I'm sure because of what souixan said the American version will be so far outdated with the young charachters, plus the the japanese series of games had two other GC titles , so there is alot more to that line of the franchise that's most likely going to be missing from the American release, plus I'd like to play the game over the summer, as in the fall there will be a million other titles coming out. I'd love a FreeLoader I guess it isn't out yet, I hope one hits stores.
