Crediar reveals a shocking BootMii secret

[Puma]

[15:51] it has a time bomb
[15:51] time bomb?
[15:51] if you install any wads after you install BootMii, it will brick your wii.

JUST CONFIRMED BY CREDIAR ON #SOFTMII

 

[xomp]

HOLY SHIT!!

[15:51] hey guise, how are you?
[15:51] fine, yourself?
[15:51] doing ok

 

[arose1980]

Somehow I doubt this to be the case...

 

[EnigmaXtreme]

Thats absolutely bullshit!

 

[Puma]

How could he be wrong? He got the Bannerbomb date right, after all.

 

[mattickus]

LOL. So much drama. I can hardly even deal with it anymore.

 

[kedest]

I really doubt that

 

[gloscherrybomb]

99% sure that'll be a joke.

 

[FenrirWolf]

Sounds fake. If it were true, would a "wad" be limited to a pirated VC/WiiWare file or any wad like a system file?

TT has repeatedly stated that it's nintendo's responsibility to stop piracy and not theirs.

 

[thebobinc]

fake i did install an wad after and my wii still work

[16:00] I meant wad as in VC/WW wad. GBATemp is so gullible, tbh.

 

[WiiPower]

Good lies are very close to the truth. If that was true, we would have had 100 new topics with bricks within the 1 hour after BootMii's release. But a timebomb that is activated at a certain date would be funny.

 

[mattickus]

It wont brick unless you install the flux capicitor wad on 5/15/2009 @ 1600 GMT. You know the one that melts your NAND using 10 hit points of nerd drama power.

That's awesome

But no, I don't believe that Team Twiizers would try to brick any Wii other than their own . It doesn't make any sense either, because BootMii is supposed to be "brick free".

XFD @ damage control. This has to be fake. Besides, let's say it bricks you. Since there's no uninstaller for BootMii yet the thing can't wipe itself. Therefore any brick it would cause would be recoverable with a nand restore.

fail

 

[JussiPik]

lol @ this epic fail.

 

[Puma]

Of course it was a joke. I didn't think GBATemp would actually react in a smart manner, but you guys amazed me. Good job.

However these logs from wan, are real. I'll get him to confirm, if I have to.

[16:12] it even works with 4.0
[16:12] haha, nice
[16:12] you cease to amaze me, sir.
[16:12] any other plans?
[16:13] I have a halfspeed DC emu working
[16:13] DC as in dreamcast?
[16:13] shenmue works at ~50fps
[16:13] yep
[16:13] holyshit nice
[16:13] you try MVC2 yet? i love that game

 

[Alexrose]

Since bootmii I've installed about 8 channels and also SBCG4AP 5.

No brick.

 

[Don Killah]

it's an epic fail joke, guys forget it...

 

[FenrirWolf]

[16:14] remember, don't say anything about this or I'm dead

Not only do you make lame jokes you betray his trust so easily.
