I would like to use a Japanese Wii here in the USA. Would this product be appropriate for me?

I use this for my electric Japanese-English Dictionary for charging. And it's no problem so far.

Nintendo games are region locked, so I'd lean toward "not compatible." I'm not sure exactly where you look for definitive proof though.

That depends. If you bought them from a normal local vendor (one based in the US), they will almost surely be from that region. However, if you buy them from a pawn shop or from a person, it is possible they won't be. This has never been an issue for me since the dawn of video games. I do suggest that you simply be careful when purchasing games on websites that are completely in another language as it is very likely the games will be from another region. My brother made that mistake and assumed the game would work on his English version console. Considering that the game was only released in Japan though, it should have been obvious.

Good product, but the manual is in Japanese, could not find anyone to help me.

It should. I bought this because it plays multi-regional DVDs. I don't know where my 'foreign' DVDs came from. They do play fine. You could call Orei. I think they're in Brooklyn, NY.

Yes, sony products are not region locked. So it can play any american game / Japanese games!

No. I don't believe so. According to their website, there are three different versions, USA, PAL and JAP. http://www.swapmagic3.com/

It should, I happen to have a Wii and this device, so I'll test it and let you know.

To give you a truthful answer. I wouldn't know. I purchased this only to encounter endless problems. I honestly wouldn't recommend you to buy this product unless you are from America.

Yes it will most definitely work on wii consoles. I use it all the time on mine, mostly for mario kart wii and it's great! The box it comes in is written in Japanese though. Bottom line is, yes it does work for U.S. Wii consoles and it is an official nintendo product! It is the exact same as the original gamecube controller but they extended the cable which is even better. I hope this helps!

Hi there, sorry dude I don't know. I have experience only with Japan model and it works just perfectly.

Yeah absolutely it will. I use it in my original GBA, my Japanese GBA (I don't think they are region locked BTW), and my GBA Micro. I haven't tested it in a GBA SP but all indications are that it works fine in them as well (tons of people in the forums have confirmed this). Only issue to watch for is about 15-20 have problems with the slower SRAM in the SuperCard (Doom 1&2, Yoshie's island, Tony Hawk 3 etc.)The slowdown in those titles is noticeable though not necessarily game breaking. If those are some of the games you would like to play you may want to invest in the EZ Flash IV or the EZ Flash V Fat Version, both of those have full speed memory but finding them can be tricky.

I purchased the product in the U.S. It was shipped from Japan. The instructions are only in Japanese.

Yes, you can use it at US, no problem at all! The only problem is that the button and manual is written in Japanese, but that does not bother too much, because you can understand how it works by trying it.

Yes you can, the voltage of Japan is the same as that in the States, or at least very close to.
