It would install of course but it may check that you have 4.2 before it runs, or it might require IOS70, or who knows what.

if this is true then waninkoko = A WINNER! (even MORE than before... how come no one else is a smart/all-powerful as him?)

waninkoko's does not bullshit.
we just have to wait.

moosehunter is right. and there really is no need to update to 4.2 in the first place. shit i'm still on 3.2

you wont be saying that when new super mario bros requires 4.2 system menu even if u have updated your ios's on 4.1 or lower

games run off of IOS's not system menus :\ hell crediars FREEDOM bybasses the wii menu and nand loaders all together iirc

[iFish]

what do you mean finally it only came out today and wanainkoko never quit dont worry the hacker in him will come back

[vettacossx]

there seems to be people already using the homebrew channel on 4.2 under another title so thats encouraging but i imagine that waninkoko will make a much more user friendly method in the days to come for those with the need to update..Kudos and even though i intend to chill on 3.2 thanks again for being the man w/ the plan waninkoko and if your reading whats up linkinworm

I highly doubt that NSMB Wii will require 4.2, because it would have to be on the disk to ensure everybody had it. The latest games coming out still only have 3.4, when 4.0 has been out for a bit now... Plus it would seem easy to bypass the check the game would make.

I'm sticking with 3.4. I actually wish I was still on 3.2, but oh wells.... I'm not going to hassle with downgrading. Installing IOSes hasn't been that big a deal.

EDIT: Looking at WiiBrew, 4.0 came out on March 25th. Wii Sports Resort came out 3 months later, still only had 3.4 on it.

There's no "hassle". Just run Waninkoko's Firmware Updater v4.1

Can someone please explain why we all care about updating to 4.2? We all know that it erases all homebrew from your system....but what else does it do? Is there actually ANY reason anyone can give me that I should update once Waninkoko releases his homebrew-safe upgrader?

I think that the Wii Shop Channel has an update.

Everyone is always wanting the latest and greatest.
It updates the Shop Channel, and the System Menu now runs on IOS70 (supposedly a performance increase...I doubt it, though).

[gwiz210]

So will this do me any good if im already on 4.2?

[King Of Chaos]

Nope.

[lightyear]

Ohhh...ok....so if you've got homebrew then why are still using the shop channel anyway? lol @ anyone still paying for games after installing homebrew

Thanks for the quick answer

@ TiMeBoMb4u2
I agree...I don't believe a word of that

[anaxs]
