[Rumor] DSi Firmware 1.5

[Livin in a box]

Well, I'm sure we'll all know but we are due an update- the last one was the 30th August and Nintendo wanted to release 1 in every quarter, so...I suppose they're either struggling to block carts (not likely) or they're trying to make 1.5 less easy to bypass (more likely). Or they're just sat around eating biscuits all day.

I even remember reading somewhere that there is an update near the end of the year but it might just be a rumor

The rumors said that the 1.4 update was supposed to come around now and come with video support.

These firmware rumors can sometimes just be plain stupid.

I also hope Nintendo put in something better than just anti piracy measures :\

That would be kinda cool if it had video support, but it's just a rumor.

The DSi always asks if it's okay to update when you choose that feature.
It checks the version number AFTER it asks that. (And says that there is no newer version if you have version 1.4 installed)

Well tried it and clicked next it then acts like it is updating only to stop and say "The dsi software is up to date. The system will now shutdown." or something like that.

Anyone else agree it is stupid to check version number after it claims to check for an update? Seems like it would be assuming it was on the first firmware till it actually tries to update.

It can be in the new version
because the DSi music channel support mp4 and 3gp
2 movie files

eww already found this

Without access to 1.5, how can they be so sure?

 

[macgeek417]

I hope 1.5 supports launching DSiWare from an SD card like the Wii does.
I've had my DSi lesss than A week and only have 296 blocks left

 

[ACWWFAN]

Anyone know if AR Media Edition DSi will be able to get around this? Sure hope so... I am confident AK2i will be able too

. Damn...just saw this on Gamespot and was like omg maybe I will be the first one to report it lol...

 

[Deathstryker]

Just now tried it on a U.S. DSi. No update found.

Not like it's that big of a deal to check anyway since you can just unplug/turn off your router while it's downloading and it will stop the download without causing damage to your DSi. Unless your internet is too quick to have time to unplug it.

 

[rockstar99]

this all is fake bullshit

 

[shakirmoledina]

actually this is just a follow up... they must have seen what the carts have done to unblock themselves and this will go on until a time comes tht nintendo will release another system to combat piracy (may sound silly of nintendo but it actually reduces piraters since rather than hurting sales themselves, they spread the word)

 

[Hatsu]

this all is fake bullshit

I pointed that out in this thread already.

the new firmware 1.5 it's not a fake. I'm from Spain and my nintendo dsi is updated to firmware 1.5

My brother has given me a nintendo dsi at Christmas day, and we updated his firmware to the newest, 1.5.
I think we updated last monday, 28th december, but already on Christmas day it said that we had to updated the firmware 1.3 to 1.5...

It seems that the firmware 1.5 is so new that there aren't any flashcard prepared for that for the moment.
Hope in some weeks the problem will be fixed and I will be able to buy a flashcard for my dsi 1.5

This is a lie. Maybe a lot of you don't know, but 28th December in Spain is like the latin version of April Fools' Day, so this nuri7 is making a joke. A stupid one, imho.

Wow I didn't know that, that's something cool to add to my knowledge of Spanish and "the country's that speak it"'s culture.
