Will we ever get Turbo-Grafx games without having to change to Uk and back every time we want a TG game? I know it was never released in Australia but its not as if they would lose money doing it.

the problem is getting oflc classification for the games. as they were never released here, the process may not be worth it.

yeah but because those games have already been released here, they have a classification that was reviewed not a new classification.

hell just slap a MA on these games and be done with it. have a little warning you must be 18+ to download this game yes no? click done. lolz

i got bomberman 93 from turbogfx. if anyone has read the manual it actually says that changing regions will clear all your wii points. however when i done it the points never cleared. has nintendo fixed this or are we still able to download from uk and keep our wii points?

the points clearing thing is a load of BS! i think its a ploy to discourage users from changing countries. However, you will not be able to purchase wii points or use a wii card if your country is set to the UK as the credit card address check will fail and the points card will show up as not being valid.

Points are the same no matter what country you buy from.

Can somebody explain how to get Turbo-Grafx games? Can you do it with points purchased with a credit card or do you need Wii Points cards?

you must have points on your VC. if you have, then go to the 3rd page on you settings and chage it to the UK. the go back to the VC and you will notice that the Turbo Grafx games are available to download.

** you must obtain points whils the country is set to australia, as the VC wont recognise your card or points whilst under the UK **
