Is it true if you install the convertor chip on an PAL Wii console, you could not play American NTSC games?

I bought my PAL wii from Emax and went to few shops in Al Nasser Area to get the chip required for playing NTSC version. I could not find the chip as it was out of stock. One of the shop reps told me that even If I installed the chip on PAL Wii, I would only be able to play the COPY games and not the original! Is this true?? What is the solution to unlock the PAL so It can play both? And where to go.

I would appreaciate an answer from someone who tried it.
Thanks,

Next time when you purchase, think which format do you preferred or check if there are available multi-system so that you can play pal or ntsc....have a nice day!

Dont know much about Wii. But I have done this with a NTSC PS2. I converted it to PAL/SECAM and then was not able to run NTSC.
