Possible Language Settings bug

Hello everybody!

At first, I'm not sure if this was asked before or if this even is a bug. I searched on this forum and on Google Code but I
didn't find anything.

I experienced an error with several Wii games. I use the German version of Dolphin and hence, my language setting is set to German.
Sometimes when I want to start a NTSC game, the screen stays black or the game is displayed incorrectly. But when I set the language to English, the games suddenly run perfectly.
I had this problem with just a few NTSC Wii games. Gamecube games are not affected.

I made a screen video of this possible issue. I demonstrate it with Super Mario Galaxy and Kirby's Return to Dreamland. I'm sorry for the bad quality, screen
videos always get compressed when I upload them:

Is this behaviour of Dolphin intended or should I post it as an issue?

Thank you very much for your help!
These are the specs of my newest laptop:

XMG Pro 17
Windows 10 x64
Intel Core i7-9750H @ 2.60 GHz (4.50 GHz Turbo Boost)
NVidia GeForce RTX 2070 @ 8GB
32 GB RAM DDR4

The same thing most likely happens if you set a real Wii console running NTSC games to German. It's impossible to do so without hacking, so games aren't designed for it. To make things more user-friendly, Dolphin prevents GameCube NTSC games from launching with the wrong language unless "Override Language on NTSC Games" is enabled. It would be nice to have the same for Wii games in the future, though I think a problem with adding it is that we're not sure which languages are valid on some console types, like Wiis sold in Korea and Taiwan...

Now I'm curious, do you have a list? Never heard of NTSC Gamecube games that use the European-specific language settings in any way.

Would be nice to have a list for this.

Some mario party games are locked to 25fps on the european version. Would be great to use ntsc version with forced language.
