VC in other countries

[saarss]

I live in Israel and I wish to use the Wii's virtual console which I know little about. I only know it allows you to download classic games to the console.

Are the games free?

How do I connect my Wii to the server? (I didn't notice any network input on the device itself... only a USB)

Will it work even if I'm not in the US?

The games are not free, they games will cost between 500-1000 points which in terms of US currency is $1 for every 100 points, though you'll have to convert for your currency.

You can connect your Wii through the built-in wireless receiver as long as you have a wireless router in your home. If you do not have a wireless router, you can connect via USB lan adapter that will plug into one of the two USB ports on the back of your Wii.
