No it does not as the wii is region locked. don't even get a game from china it mostly likely pirated as china does not have wii games to answer your question I really don't know what you mean by formatting

Before SSBB released I had a few friends who played the japanese version on their Wii's so i'm thinking it should work for you

You'll need to either modchip your wii (expensive, voids your warrenty) or buy a freeloader. This will let you play games from other regions on your US wii. Available Here: http://www.jr.com/datel/pe/DTL_DUS0264_hy_I/

HOog Kong is NOT part of the Nintendo Big 3. Most likely, Hong Kong gets PAL Region Games. It should work, but check the box. If it says i-Que Wii, then you got a problem. I'll explain. There are 3 regions Nintendo Supports: Nintendo Of Japan (Big N) Nintendo Of America Nintendo Of Europe There is another that covers not-so-important countries, called Nintendo PAL Then, there is Nintendo of China, but due to goverment restrictions, they operate as i-Que (Nintendo of China) You should be able to find at least a PAL Copy because Hong Kong is a Special Zone in China and operates almost as it's own international country, but still anexed by by China.
