I got a really cheap japanese wii (7$) and found some super cheap japanese gamecube games. If i mod the wii with Priiloader to be region free, will the gamecube games just change to english?

What about if you wanted to change the language to Latin?
...
A strange way of saying, who says the game contains English language?
Some games might let you choose the language, some changes might have English but not let you select it.
It's different for every game.

But as a general rule, Japanese games are Japanese only.

It really depends on the game. Most GC games (especially first party Nintendo titles) don't afaik.

From the top of my head ones that do let you change to English:
- Melee (possibly Kirby Air Ride as well)
- Sonic Heroes, and most likely every 3D Sonic game on GC
- Star Fox Assault

All of those will probably default to Japanese though, so you'll need to go into the game settings to change it to English.
