No you can't. The servers aren't even up anymore so you couldn't even play it online with the broadband adapter and gamecube.

I don't you could play online using the Wii connection for a GC game. First of all when you put in a GC game and start it up, the Wii pretty much turns off and the GC inside turns on. The Wii is indeed two consoles. The Wii itself and GC. So I think you have to buy an online adaptor for GC. And besides I heard the PSO online thing was filled with hackers. And I'm not even sure if the server is still up. Sorry to burst your bubble :P.

i cant say for certain since i dont have the game but i dont think so. when u boot up PSO, the wii goes into GC mode. as far as i know this cant access the wireless chip in the wii since doing so could screw up the emulation. PSO would expect a certain type of modem to be at a certain port. if its not there then the game wont work. wii doesent have this modem.

i think thats the way it is anyway. u can play single player (but thats a bit crap imho) but online is a no go. if this isnt the case then soz for the bad info.

The online section of gamecube games won't work on the wii. HOWEVER if you have friends who come and play on your wii, then you can still play it offline with up to 4 players who are sitting in the same room. Its great fun.
