From Joel :
Wired had the opportunity to sit down after with Nintendo Vice - President of Marketing & Corporate Affairs — not to advert affable group discussion legion — Perrin Kaplan to ask a few head that were n’t addressed in the press league .
Will the Wii be neighborhood - free ? Yes . Like the Nintendo DS , the Wii will be able-bodied to play games from other region , such as Japan , without any limitation . Kaplan implied there might be a region ignition lock that publishers would be able to flip on , but it does n’t go like the first - political party titles from Nintendo will be restrict .
Will games downloaded from the Virtual Console store be tied to an account statement like Xbox Live or a one - prison term - only download like iTunes ? Tied to an account . Kaplan discourse a scenario where a player ’s Wii was broken or destroyed , but would be able to re - download title they had antecedently bought to a new Wii political machine . Because my left over wooden leg was burning from an accidental Zippo oil spill , I neglect to inquire if a user would be able to lumber into friend ’ Wiis and play their practical Console downloads away from their home machine .
Will Wii users be able to sum storage via USB tough cause ? No . The Wii ’s storage will be exclusively via split second computer memory storage , such as SD memory card , at least at launch . Kaplan said a hard drive addition could be in the future , but that sounds more like a “ Sure , why not ? ” answer than one based in any immediate design .
How much will Opera cost ? Unknown . No monetary value has yet been put for the download - able Opera web web browser app , but it sounds like it could very well be free , once Nintendo finish give-and-take with Opera .
