Who here has a working copy of smash brothers brawl? If so, I'd love to play with them over wifi.

I just got the Japanese version of Winning eleven for Wii.
Is there anything I need to do or watch out for when playing a Japanese Wii game on my NA Wii console?

did you buy it or burnt a copy?
the problem with foreign games on north american consoles is that when a game asked for an update, it will download a japanese firmware on ur NA console......
this is harmful and can semi brick your console
if u burnt a copy and still have the iso file, use brick blocker program to fool the console with the japanese udate and also use regionfrii to change the region of ur iso file

it depends, EB overhypes everything they got, games that u can only get pre ordered, will be available to buy in some stores like FS/BB
but that depends on FS/BB stock as well... on how much they got, was Mario Galaxy sold out when it came out?
because Smash Bros Brawl seems to be getting more hype
i got the japanese version a month ago, and IMO, i say its worth it because i am actually considering of buying it rather than downloading it
but which ever comes first, apparently someone is about to upload the DVD9 north american version in torrents tonight, so i might just download it.. but yes, if im lucky and manage to get some retail copy, definitely buying it on the spot..

you can play SSBB with just the wiimote, you hold it sideways like an old school 2d mario game, kinda like Paper Mario
alot of reviews prefer that simple method control
but im used to moving around in the game with analog stick, plus i find it awkward to press the B button when blocking when holding the wiimote sideways..

just a warning
for those with a wiikey modchip on ur consoles, a legit original game of SSBB will not work due to the wiikey chip need a new firmware update to be compatible with newer games
but because of the wiikey team being MIA, its not sure when they will or if they will release a new update..
im actually eager to buy this game, but i may have to settle with getting a dumped version..

just keep a close attention to this site http://psx-scene.com/wii/portal.php
many ppl who actually preferred to buy the game, only to find out that the Wiikey installed, it makes it incompatible to play the game
also some mod chips also are not working with real copies of SSBB
so they resorting to extracting and dumping their real copies and burning it on a dual layer disc for it to only work.... so thats why a warning to those with modded wiis, burnt copies are the only way to go at the moment..
also the dual layer SSBB version caps at 7.92 gigs, so look for the isos with that, dont download the 4.12 gig version, they are single layer dumps with the fmvs taken out, making some part of the game totally inaccessible..
but ya, a dumped version of the NTSC hasnt been released yet, the ones that says Super Smash Bros Brawl NTSC version 4.12 gigs are actually Super Mario Strikers isos..... so dont waste ur bandwidth...
