First-party games are region-free
IGN
Japanese games will be playable on U.S. consoles, European consoles, etc, and vice-versa. Importers rejoice! Speaking of which, a Japanese launch game will be bundled with a wiimote.

Sweet! I'll be buying games off the Internet for sure.
I'm gonna have to buy "My first Wii" for the Wiimote. Plus it has all the cool mini games like pinball, table hockey, and pool.

theres a chance that its for the UK only or the UK dude made a mistake
"The US side of the company said it wouldn't be. But Nintendo UK insists that the Wii is region-locked. The announcement was made through its spokesperson in response to questions from journalists. Also, in an interview with IGN, Nintendo UK General Manager David Yarnton also confirmed that "games and online services will be region-coded." In both cases, when the journalists followed up by mentioning that Nintendo US had earlier announced that the Wii would be region-free, both the spokesperson and Yarnton replied that the US side of the house made a mistake. So far, as of this posting, there has been no reply from the US side that has reached our ears or our web browsers, so stand-by for further updates. We ourselves want to know if our Wii would be region-free... or not." QJ.NET - Nintendo Wii Blog - 24/7 Coverage of the Nintendo Wii - Article Detail
