Just got one today and all games boot fine with it. The only problem I noticed was that whenever I use DVD-Rs with it, I can hear the disc whirling away constantly. I don't get this sound if I use proper retail games.
So is this normal? Or should I go for a certain brand of DVD-R? The PS2 model...
OK, thanks for confirming guys!
The last mini update doesn't fix the Flash bug so if you run across the problematic files, your Wii should still freeze.

Starting the Game
Once you've completed the 5 tutorials you can choose to play Story Mode or Expert Mode. Both means you work with shares (or "stock") but with Story Mode you play a board game too and have to reach...

Lol, it was the GBA RPGs that got me watching the Anime. The games themselves (including this one) were pretty boring but the story was interesting. Everyone else was already watching it back then but I wasn't. The games gave me a little incentive
Highly recommended show.
