Im not stupid, it was just a spur of the moment thing. GUYS DONT DELETE IOS60!!!!!!!
 
Wow, that's a pretty lame "joke." It's obvious that people will panic and do something stupid when it seems the console is already screwed up.
 
didn't want to call you stupid. sorry if it seemed so.

it's a german saying: don't do something stupid. it just means don't do anything you might regret.

No offense taken, it was a stupid thing to do, hopefully i can play dum tomorrow and get another new one.
 
It was actually quite funny

I really don't think anyone will bugger anything up, and to be honest if they did without researching it they probably shouldn't be using the tools!
 
nah i dont think it was cool to that as nintendolinky is like the 3rd person to do the same thing.It would of crapped my pants if i lived in uk and it was april 1st rite now
 
I was thinking that april 1st all the nintendo wiis that have been hacked and that use wifi may turn on there owners and start taking sites down .....you know what I mean
 
I wish i had posted quicker maybe could helped him before he uninstalled it =(
Im just waiting for the next post about the joke, "I broke my wii It was repairing and took ages so i took it apart and resoldered things now it wont power on" should always try the simplest things first

lol
 
roomy i agree its not funny to make these jokes.This is like trying to trip someone with down syndrome its just not right.You might think its funny for a second,but its really cruel.
 
Additional funny is that the April_Fools() function seems b0rked. After a few reboots, I only got coredumps, even from a hard power off (red led).

Panic -> calm -> eject all periferals -> retry.

It seems it coredumps as long as I have an sd-card inserted; doesn't matter if sdhc or not (tried both). Have it eject, and preloader boots to the prank screen. From there just hit A and boot system menu.

I can confirm that this was because of the prank, since after I set the date to 4/2, preloader never dumps any more.

crediar could have at least tested it. codedumping is not a vvery usefull feature.

how many have you seen with that problem now ? ONE person and you directly blame crediar for not testing it ...
 
who else would be to blame? you always need sb to blame and here i am to blame.

crediar is doing excellent work but in my eyes this joke is a little bit nasty.
 
Wtf? So there was something built into wii-brew that leads you to believe there is something wrong with your console on april 1st?

And its caused people to panic & do things that have ended up with bricked wii's?

Wtf?
