Well I told a friend to wait for me to remove the avr chip and then update his wii so I can put it back and he accidentally forgot wiiconnect 24 on and his wii updated to 3.0E without any problems.Does anyone have a clue about this??I think that the bricking of wii's with the new firmware is just a fake rumor,or is there a possibility that bricking could be prevented with wiiconnect 24?
