Gekko compatible Wii games - Where to get info?

[teddymeow]

Hi all. Hope I've posted this in the right section.

I've had a quick search but couldn't find a thread detailing what games are and aren't compatible with the Gekko OS through the homebrew channel.

I'm off on holiday soon and wanted to pick up a bunch of Jap Wii games to play on my PAL Wii via the Gekko and was hoping that somebody could either tell me if the games I want to buy are compatible or point me in the direction of a website which does have a list (much like the Blu-ray region website).

The games I want to pick up are:

Let's Tap
Tatsunoko Vs Capcom
Taiko no Tatsujin
Kaze no Klonoa
Illvelo
Suzumiya Haruhi no Gekidou

I've seen that TvsC is Gekko compatible from the First Play thread but have seen no mention of the others.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Chris.

Ok i used any region changer to set my console to usa so it wouldnt boot my japanese games so i could test it out for you.

I have Gecko OS 1.07b installed

Taiko no tatsujin: Works fine
Illvelo: Works but japanese text is garbled, freeloader had this text prob too with some games too
Tatsunoko vs capcom :works fine

Sometimes you have to go into the config options in gecko os & change the boot language to match the game as default dosent work sometimes, my we cheer would freeze if i left it on default but once i set boot language to english it worked fine, just something to bear in mind.

Cool! Many thanks

Yeah, the garbled text will go if you make the langauge match too. In things like JPN Family Ski, it's useful to keep it in English because loads of the text has english versions.
