Can i init an Angular2 hybrid app without SystemJS?

Question

I have a pretty big Angular 1 application. I want to progressively migrate it into Angular 2 so i'm following the the Official Upgrade Guide.

Now for some reason i'm getting one problem after the other with SystemJS but i also doubt that the old app will work with async module loading so i'd like to go on with the upgrade without using SystemJS or maybe using a much simpler module loader.

I tried go get rid of SystemJS but all the ng2 modules are wrapped in System.register calls.

So how can i setup a project that uses ng1 + ng2 and UpgradeAdapter without SystemJS?

EDIT: I Get SystemJS is providing a polyfill for ES6 import. Let's say i can do without it because i'm only interested in running the application on ES6 compliant browsers.

You can use angular-all.umd.js and wrap your own modules in a UMD envelope. That way you can load them dynamically or statically.
