We bought Mariokart and played it against our friends in the UK - it is great fun, although it is let down by not being able to speak to them via the Wii at the same time. Part of the fun is laughing at eachother,

Needless to say chipping invalidates any warranty, and downloading games is copyright theft!

Thanks for letting me know I think i will just leave it as it is .We only got it on sunday and I really got it for the new fit game that is coming out on the 8th May. We are both really enjoying it and so is my grandson

And of course you can get a component out cable for the Wii which will work with pretty much anything in any country.

Also Wii is not region coded.
