Default What about the Freeloader?
Does it still work after downloading WiiWare? I guess there's a new firmware update, right?

Would be nice to hear it from both European and US gamers.

The update to Wiiware happened in March, so it could not be affected.

I knew there already was a WiiWare update some time ago, but I thought there might be another one now that the whole service really started.

If all else fails, you can still use the Wii Freeloader on a GameCube (It'll work there better for Cube Games than on a Wii).

The idea of buying or even using or worrying about if the freeloader is still working is kind of pointless anymore if you have been keeping up with the homebrew scene using the twilight hack there is a hombrew program that lets you run import games on any region Wii . If you want to find out more on the subject check out QJ net they have the program for free download.
