Freeloader For Wii Giant Box Art & Confirmation Of A Single Disc That Pwns Firmware Updates

“According to the developers, when a foreign disc is inserted it disables the console from being able to update its firmware. What about future firmware updates? Datel believe that it won’t have any effect, but we’ve emailed Datel ourselves to confirm. “

Sexy eh? Hopefully it’s all true and one disc will enable us crazy importers across the globe.

Chrono Trigger NES

“As of October 1, this game must be played in FCEU. The SFC version of the game is really similar to Final Fantasy, so the result should have been good. However, despite waiting a long time for this FC version to come out, it is something only really dedicated players will enjoy. To beat one monster could take as much as half an hour, and that is below boss difficulty. It requires more patience than what the average player has. ”

Wow, these Chinese pirate porters are pretty freaking hardcore, eh? And why in the hell would you port a SNES game to the NES? I mean a Playstation game to the NES is pretty cool and all but this is just plain silly.

NES Final Fantasy VII

Yep, some crazy fool over in Japan is porting the entirety of Final Fantasy VII to the NES. This guy updates his blog regularly with shots of new areas he’s ported, so if you’re a rabid FFVII fan you’ll want to bookmark it. Otherwise just enjoy the video above and realize that some fanboys have entirely too much time on their hands. EDIT: It is a widely available Chinese cart, this guy is just taking screens.
