PAL VC on NTSC Console

I'm trying to load my PAL Virtual Console games, but they just freeze on "Need the classic controller." message.
Would changing my region to PAL temporarily fix this? I really don't want to waste my time region changing if it wont work.

Thanks

The VC games are region-locked. Also, unless you brought your Wii to Europe, talk of pirated WADs are not allowed.

It is very easy to work around that.

The physical location of a wii does not determine what region of the shop channel it connects to. This is determined by the shop channel region setting on the wii. Furthermore, he said nothing about pirated WADs; it is entirely possible that these games were downloaded from the shop channel.

Region changing your wii is not necessary. If it is an issue with the region setting, that can be worked around. What program or system menu patch are you using to bypass the region lock? Also, is this happening with all PAL VC games, or just some? Finally, you did purchase these games from the shop channel, right?

Using Priiloader hacks. I also use Gecko OS to load them, still freezes. I don't understand why it is doing this.

NTSC Channels: Work.
NTSC-J Channels: Work.
PAL Wii/Gamecube Games: Work
PAL Channels: Hang

And yes, they are from the shop channel.

This could be a video mode problem. Try setting the video mode setting in Gecko OS to force NTSC (or whatever that option is).

I've fiddled with video already. Nothing seems to work. I still have a feeling region changing temporarily will work.
I just want to make some codes for Gecko OS. :P

This will most lightly not be it, but it's worth a try. Do you have priiloader hacks made for your system menu? Or maybe you should try Ocarina.

I want to use the debugger, and afaik, it's not in ocarina. I have region free channels and games on, though it doesn't really matter as Gecko OS doesn't work either.
