Wiikey update: ETA 1 week!

We have received positive news from the developers. The long-awaited upgrade to wiikey is basically finished, and is now being tested on different systems to ensure that is is working smoothly. We expect that it will be available to the public around May 15.



We would also like to point out that making the upgrade incompatible with clones have not caused any delays in the process.

Sounds to me like.

"This update is incompatible with clones and despite what every man and his dog have been saying on forums, making it incompatible was not the reason for the delay".

The only feature I've heard so far is the GCOS that plays DVD R9s. The clones are exactly the same as the original wiikeys. No way they can brick them.

And they didnt say they were going to brick them they just said it was incompatible, although bricking it might be a side effect

It shouldn't cause trouble as it only edits the data in the EEPROM.

As for the firmware update, presumably it will add improved import support, GC Audiofix, DVD9 support, and possibly not work for all clones. If we are lucky maybe it will improve disc detection as well (for those cheapskates who use garbage media). I can't imagine what else it could possibly do.
