I came across this tonight while looking at Jeff Gerstmann's Blog. He stated that he has ordered one and is thinking of getting a Japanese game. Now I bought one myself for the hell of it (because you know, I want to play Brawl) but I am not going to import Brawl at this moment since I would like to find out first if it actually works. I was on the NeoGaf forums and there was a thread about it and had some interesting scenarios about firmware updates and the like. Also, people in there are talking about how the Freeloader for GC doesn't work anymore if you have Firmware 3.0. I don't know if its because I have the most recent version or what but I have a Freeloader and it works fine and my firmware is at 3.1.

Now I honestly hope this works now with Brawl entirely (Wi-Fi and all) since it will save me having to wait months for it to come out here and will make my day. If I find out it doesn't because of certain reasons I seen in that thread, then I will be disappointed to say the least and will just sell this on (provided that someone wants it). Too bad there ain't anything like this for the 360 so I can play Rock Band asap and everything would be perfect.

Here is the thread.

Will keep you updated on this situation and whether or not I import it. Later guys.
