I'm on 4.0 and my friend is telling me to downgrade to 3.2, I'm like why? What's the point? The same features are on 4.0 as on 3.2 and I'm not doing anything else to my wii.
I was one of the 3.2U people that held out until BootMii.. After about a week or more after the release of BootMii, I finally got the guts to install it. Then I found this guide and upgraded to 4.0.
From the link below --
Using this guide you will be able to update to firmware 4.0 and keep features like loading backups, playing virtual console/wiiware games from SD card and installing wads/channels.

This is a great guide and web page... Check out some of the other information there too. Note, I used "method 1" to update, where I installed the patched ISO60 and CIOS Rev 10. Then I just updated to 4.0 over the Internet from Nintendo. All worked great! I had never tested the USB loader until now, and it works fine under 4.0. The Homebrew channel and all homebrew work fine. I've had no problems at all.

4.0 Rules. Haters can SMB.
As if anyone can be afraid of an update that Waninkoko made. I mean, it's Waninkoko for crying out loud. Would he make anything that could brick a Wii?
The reason everyone should jump on the 4.0 bandwagon is because with BootMii out, there is probably going to have to be two releases for every app (one for the 3.2 losers, and another for the 4.0 super-cool-dudes). What kind of programmer want to write the same thing twice? There is no reason to be on 3.2 (unless that's your favorite number or something).
It won't brick your Wii, you won't miss anything, and you'll probably end up using the SD card channel anyways.
PS
Let's see you suckers hold out after Motion Plus comes out.

Not me
edit: Really its up to the User has to what firmware he wants to Use,
A 4.0 User has to patch alot of things to get what a 3.2 User already has
A 3.2 User only has to update certain things to keep Compatibly with newer games, But he doesn't have VC Sd Loading which is over rated
all and all its up to the User

Isn't Wad Manager one of Waninkoko's app..?? the one that has been used by several people around here to uninstall the Wii's IOSes and/or SysMenu, I mean it is absolutelly not Wanky's fault, but his apps are dangerous if they are not used wisely, and I haven't seen a single app that has two .dols (one for 3.2 and one for 4.0), are you proud of having a 4.0 Wii with all the hacks that a 3.2 user has PLUS the super-drupper SD launching menu (WOW I must get it soon cause it has the "super-drupper" word)..?? congratulations...!!

update boot2...

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.

Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.+1 -

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+1

Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
