Datel working on Wii device to play multi-region

We may soon be able to get our hands on Wii games from across the globe and play them on our PAL consoles if Datel's plans go ahead.

Check out the Headline for more info.

Bit of a misleading heading, it's a disc/device to enable games from other regions to be played on a Wii. It's not however enabling any backwards compatibility. The Wii is already sort of backwards compatible using the Virtual Console

Well since you can already play Cube games on a Wii they spending time doing backwards compatibilty would be pointless

The Freeloader for Gamecube works in a Wii so you can still import GC games and play them on your Wii... Just need the same for the Wii Games which they will hopefully bring out soon
