Another Wii Update

[g4jek8j54]

So you guys are sure i installed the wiiware update and not this messed up 1..sorry its just i have a jap wii and when i finaly able 2 play all these great usa games..ninetndo create this block..i just dont want too losse all the great stuff trucha has done..but u cant help wanting 2 have your console up to date=/

Im also worried because ever since i did that update i havnt recived an mail containg info on this new 1 =/

Did you receive an E-Mail about the WiiWare update, and update on the same day? If so, you probably don't have this one. You could connect your Wii to the internet, and check for updates. Just don't perform any updates if there are. If there is a new one, then you probably aren't updated to it. Also, all it's known to fix is the trucha exploit. You can still run USA games, you just won't be able to modify the ISO to do things like, for example, uncensor Manhunt 2, if you did update.

Well he might need to use Trucha Signer to use the video mode changer for USA games that dont work on JAP Wii.

Sorry, I wasn't thinking of that. I believe if there isn't a new update, a message will come up that only has one button to press (the 'OK' button). If there is one, there will be two buttons ('Yes' or 'No'). You should probably wait for someone else to confirm that, though. I haven't updated in awhile (still at 3.0U).

EDIT: On mine, 'No' is the right button, but just to be safe, hold in the Power button on the Wii console to shut it off, so you don't accidentally update. Don't press either button.

You're right, I didn't think about that.

WTF is someone playing a early april fools joke..This is on the main page of wiibrew

"Fake! This update does not exist!

A new Wii System Update has been released, containing a new version of the firmware (IOS37) with a fix for the signing bug. Click the link for more info.

(Note this is NOT the update from a couple of days ago that was related to Wiiware. That one is confirmed as `safe`.)

Fake! This update does not exist!"

i got the source from here http://wiibrew.org/index.php?title=Main_Page

 

[ccfman2004]

I saw that too.

Can anyone confirm if this update actually exists?

 

[Apakarta]

so is it safe to update?

 

[jpxdude]

Checked Wiibrew homepage, it doesn't say anything about the news being fake.

 

[g4jek8j54]

Yeah, I don't see anything, either.

 

[awofadeju]

Call me craxy but here what my screen shows

 

[Xeronage]

Its probably just some lamo who put up the fake message. I trust Ch0p, so I wont update for a long time.. Not until someone figures out alternate firmware versions we can upload to the Wii

 

[Giga_Gaia]

At least for now, Europe and Australia will get Mario Kart first (I said for now since I bet Nintendo will delay it till american release get out)

Just to help out a little, I don't have a modded Wii but I can confirm that there is another update since the Wiiware update from a couple of days ago. I wouldn't recommend updating for now until there's either a 100% confirmation that it does bork Trucha or at least a fix for the Trucha Signer to continue bypassing. Update was performed on a PAL Wii with the 3.2E firmware. Latest update is still marked as 3.2E.
As WiiBrew states it effects Freeloader too I wouldn't recommend updating. There's been no message from Nintendo to prompt the update and nothing new has been added to the Wii channels, aesthetically or other, as far as I can tell. The entire update so far just seems to be one that a user will attempt of their own accord. Since my Wii is unmodded and I have no Freeloader I had nothing to lose in updating. I can't confirm it's effect of course because of this but I definitely suggest that you update ONLY at your own risk.

Edited for additional info.

This is a joke right... I mean please tell me someone who's posting in this thread can't be so... (calm down, don't be rude to the newbs) so.. AARRGGGHHH!!!!!

** I was being a little rude to the poster here, I apologise for that**

Like I said, I don't have any modifications or anything but there is definitely another update. I'm trying to help you guys by telling you not to update it for now which only benefits you so I have neither anything to gain or lose.

 

[nextnomura]

hmm...
i don't think there's a real system update..

it's taken from nintendo's official site

 

[awofadeju]

The thing is i only recived 1 wii messgae, since to updates came out shouldnt i recove 2 messages, thats why im confused which udpate i installed =/

 

[LokusT]

Hmm..... Nintendo's site states 25th of February as the last update even though there was definitely one to add support to the Wii shop for Wiiware a couple of days ago. The date is somewhat out of date then. As far as I can tell, at this point in time you will miss out on nothing if you don't update yet, but if you do, you could lose all this: http://wiibrew.org/index.php?title=IOS37

Although it states "Until the system menu is updated to use IOS37, it will have no effect.", I think it would be safer to just not apply the update.

I think I have updated my Wii in the past, non-game disc update I mean, before even receiving the message from Nintendo before. Of course, they may never send a message about it. They usually only ever do it when they are adding a service I think. I can't really see them saying they're proud to introduce an update that screws over any attempts by the modding/homebrew scene. Although, I'd admire their testicular fortitude for being incredibly up front about it.
