Oh man im worried. Why?

On one hand ive been waiting for an update for like months

On the other hand, what if it kills homebrew completely

They've tried and failed twice...in a row...

On the other other hand, what if this update gives us DVD Playback lolno, region free playback lolno and that SD Storage Solution lolno i been waiting for. Yes im beinmg optimistic but who CARES! I do.

haha why are you guys having an orgasm "ZOMGZ WTF THE END OF THE WORLD IS HERE 3.5 IS GOING TO KILL OUR HOMEBREW" If your wii is softmodded and you don't update, you'll be fine. 3.2 is the way to go

Even though I am running 3.4..if I don't press update it won't update correct? its not like its gonna do it on its own? I would downgrade but I have no clue how to do it(Since I am new to all of this) and it took me time to figure out how even to soft mod so I don't want to take any chances

 

[xDarkElement]

yeah, it wont update if you dont press anything. I dont think i've ever seen anyone brick a wii downgrading to 3.2, if you have zelda twilight princess, go for it

 

[Raven Darkheart]

it shouldnt update on its own if you softmod
but if im wrong correct me

People roll their eyes at me, but don't realize everyone else in these threads are talking about a bunch of nonsense! Either you choose to update, or you simply don't.

Plus, there's always going to be a way to get the benefits of 3.5 while staying on a lower sysmenu. PANIC! WIISPLOSION! NINTY FORCING 30 MILLION CONSOLES TO UPDATE OR DIE!!!!!

only certain games will force an upgrade if your firmware is too low. other than that its a uses choice to upgrade or now

 

[xDarkElement]

thats what preloader is for, haha to block disc updates

 

[Raven Darkheart]

thats what preloader is for, haha to block disc updates

i know that and i dont have a wii
its just funny to see people freak out

like i said steph made my night

 

[Dark_anth]

Great!

Let's hope nintendo blocks alot of pirate-apps. So when you are a noob and make a mistake, you can't go back to 3.2 this time.

fuck you... piracy is fun!

idc who made what and who gets money so dont give me shit about it anyone lol XD srrryyy but i am a GBAtemper

Er, that was a real mature way to handle that situation.

Anyways, I don't see what all this hysteria over system menu 3.5 is. Unless you somehow updated with Preloader/Starfall installed, you'd be safe. Also, WiiConnect24 doesn't auto-update (contrary to popular belief). >_>

 

[EnigmaXtreme]

So far this has only been reported for Korean wii's, so until our disc slot starts shining blue weve got nothing to worry bout

 

[FenrirWolf]

And there won't be anything to worry about when they start shining blue, either.

 

[DaMummy]

im not updating till ninty finally releases sdhc feature for system menu, and even then it will be a cracked update that touches the insides of my wii's

 

[joda]

With regards to people bringing up big hopes on VC and WiiWare from SD-card; did noone read the whole post http://hackmii.com/2009/02/why-the-wii-wil...get-any-better/?

As a specific example, let’s look at the much-discussed future ability to load Virtual Console and WiiWare titles from an SD card (seriously, what the hell were they thinking with 512MB of internal storage and no sane infrastructure to ever expand it externally?) There are three possible solutions to get this to work:[*]Add FAT filesystem code to IOS retroactively, disabling any SD access for titles that launch from SD[*]Add FAT filesystem code to IOS retroactively and push title updates for everything that uses SD, to remove the in-title FAT code and replace it with a new interface to IOS[*]Just fake it and transparently copy titles to the Wii system memory when you want to launch them, causing more Flash wear and tear and longer launching timesChances are they’re going to go for number 3. And the only reason 1. and 2. exist is because downloadable content access is implemented through a unified “application security” subsystem, which forced them to define a sort-of-standard interface for it. They wouldn’t have done it otherwise.

In other words, your best hopes are a transparent feature with: (1) having a link in your system menu, (2) clicking that link will copy the game to the Wii NAND and, (3) run it. This might be better than today, but only marginally--and will really tear on your NAND.

I'm not sure if this has been brought up yet, I only scanned through the topic quickly.

First update to Korean Wii System Menu, Launches with new Shop and Region Select Channel

Source: WiiBrew.org

New shop channel and 'Region Select' channel. (Obviously why it was Korean specific) No evil code.

 

[Lumstar]

What does that do? Is it because people were complaining about the fact it only runs Korea region discs?
