NTSC 4.43 by Discrate on 10-15-2009 at 02:15 PM
I need some help.
Australia uses the PAL tv format. My tv that i have also has the function to go to NTSC 4.43 and NTSC 3.58. I was wondering if i got a NTSC Nintendo Wii, would it work on my tv?

As long as your tv supports it, it should work.

It will, as long as your tv supports it. Brazil also uses PAL tv format, while all devices I use (including the Wii) use NTSC, never had a problem with it.

That's the trick, so unless you are trying to play games that are only available in NTSC regions, it may be worth it to buy a PAL Wii and buy your games locally. Otherwise you may have to import them all from NTSC regions anyways.

Well, if you have a PAL TV with NTSC options, why not buy a PAL Wii? Or am I missing something?

I was thinking about redeeming a Nintendo Wii of lockerz, i had the option, i was one click away but then the NTSC came to mind and i decided against it, so i got something else.
Don't mind toddys posts, he thinks it's a big scam.

All games in aus are PAL, but they are all 100, 150 dollars, the only reason for that price is because we are australian, no other reason, they just feel like ripping us off.

console games, often even computer games are way to expensive I wouldn't pay > $65AUD for a game that's why I don't have a console and we have a piracy problem

Yeh it's just a rip off. Best thing to do is import the games, thats what i do.

Got my dad to buy me an iPod Touch there, $300. Know how much would it cost here? $700.
Same with games. And almost everything else.
(Yep, total rip off. Hate it.)

1 Australian dollar is nearly the same as 1 American dollar so importing is good
