::Should we really document this on every game's page though? In my experience, so many games crash on boot due to missing the splash screen for languages outside the region, that they become the rule rather than the exception. It's a bit like if we documented that the widescreen hack should be disabled for every Wii game. You would end up seeing the template on almost every article. Perhaps this is more suited to a general troubleshooting section?

:::It's a bit different than the widescreen hack though.
:::*New Users probably know that the Wii supports widescreen natively. New European/Asian users LIKELY don't know about the fact that a wrong language will result in the game being unplayable. (Especially because Dolphin itself spits NOTHING out)
:::*NTSC games support different possible languages, which are different for each game. (some support French, some Spanish, some don't)
:::*The general troubleshooting section is a little bit too invisible. Maybe we add a "Possible Region Issues: <nowiki>'Link to general troubleshooting'</nowiki>" to every Wii game
:::I think we should do it at least until {{Issue|11299}} is implemented. This wiki should (at least in my opinion) be more inclusive and less alienating. (this issue, region-specific names, etc.). This shouldn't affect the rating. Maybe it's better to add a disclaimer for all Wii games via automation or something like that.
