But wait, if they ported the PAL codes, wouldn't they be just as godlike? Maybe not in US eyes, but in PAL eyes they would be deserving of a medal for achieving in PAL what was already done in US. Maybe a shoddy reason for credit, yes, but a reason is a reason nonetheless. I don't have nothing to encourage the porting because there's really no point in trying to encourage someone that, as you said, only focuses on the US side of things. With that, I'd rather encourage the PAL side of things instead. Sure it may fall on deaf ears, but at least I'm bloody trying the best I can to attempt something of the sort. Hell, I've tried and failed brilliantly at learning how to port myself, so it's well known that it's no walk in the park, which is why it should be left to the more well known and more intelligent people like Dant or an European porter. Hell, maybe if Dant had both version we would see those at the same time?

Though I don't think PAL would do different than saying an European "thanks/merci/danke/gracias/grazie", porting it for a "Thanks" is about as worth it as making it in the first place for a "Thanks". >_>;

P:M and B+ are just two great examples of small communities who want the hacks to be played Worldwide. I put it to you, why couldn't other hackers set aside the differences? Yes, maybe the PAL community wouldn't be better, but then again, other than the regular codes (character modifiers and stuff), we don't really have that big of a list on codes compared to the US, which has better response to it simply 'cause most of the community is located in the USA. And even if I "whine" as you say, I'm sure I'm not the only one that complains sometimes, and I'm sure it's not the PAL faction that "whines" sometimes, either. Remember how the Clone Engine is still being urged by people who're "whining" to be finished?

Again, as complex as they are, don't forget we still have many users who just got into the whole hacking business. Don't expect them to know how to hack the Wii regionfree firsthand, nor apply the codes to their own personal GCT files. Baby steps are the key. Maybe you don't care about the save data, but when you're putting over two to three years of work to get the 100% (not whole days of nothing but playing, just the afternoons and weekends), and then you're told to screw all that effort in order to get the hacks you mentioned above just to expand the life time... wouldn't you be iffed yourself to have it all go down the drain just for an epic hack? I'm not asking for full, complete development. What I'm asking is just for this set hack to be ported. The other epic hacks can take their own time to be ported. I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd like this along with other epic hacks (though I prioritize as this over the others), but PAL always gets shoved aside in everything. So, maybe once, just once, there should be a small light in the darkness of PAL hacking.

Of course this will all be moot when someone develops a program to convert hacks from NTSC to PAL and vice versa. :af:

It'd be nice if they could port it, 'cause as I said, I use PAL myself, as well as NTSC-U, what I've been trying to say is that it'll be REALLY hard to find a NTSC-U (Which are the "godlike" coders on this year) be interested in porting it to PAL or NTSC-J, that's where people like Bero comes to the play (Bero's a porter to NTSC-J).

I, at least, don't care about my save data, I only did the Sub Space Emmysary to unlock the characters fast, instead of playing 450 matches to do so, but I know some people do care, but the code makers do the codes for their likings and mst of the time ignore the community because all we're doing is begging for something that they're doing for fun.
