Mine didn't work right after the update I'm sure we will find out.

It's for GHWT. Just my guess, but I'd put some money on it.

You're willing to put money on Nintendo being willing to change their hardware for a third party? Are you sure we're talking about the same Nintendo?

No, he's talking about Nintendo with hope. I can hear it in the supple sound of his words on my screen.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #154 on:** October 23, 2008, 12:21:55 AM »

What hardware are they changing? It's just a "background" system menu update. You also have to take into account that GH3 is the best selling 3rd party game on the Wii (not counting Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games)...so yeah, they would put a little effort into making the experience better. The 360 version of GH3 has only sold about 100k more than the Wii version, the Wii's install base has already doubled since GH3 was released, so there's a pretty good chance that GHWT will sell more on Wii than PS3 and 360. Nintendo would be insane(olord) not to do anything they can to kiss VV/NS's asses and get rid of the "3rd parties don't sell" stigma.

You're lucky you didn't actually put up money on your guess, Brandogg, it was just some minor changes in the Shop Channel.

The controller usage explanation screen will be separated from the purchase screen. Along with this, the user will be prompted to confirm that they have any necessary accessories before being able to press the Purchase button.

People were actually dumb enough to buy games they lacked the controllers to play? Sheesh.

Has anybody tried to see if what Insanolord linked to is true or not.
Edit:Nevermind

So, download or not?

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #159 on:** October 23, 2008, 01:57:20 PM »

Apparently there's some kind of background change included as well and I'm waiting to see what the ramifications are in terms of homebrew so I'm holding off for now.

some interesting ones actually... the fakesign bug has been fixed in all IOS (thus, cIOS, DVDX, HBC and other channels, etc can't be installed anymore... things installed before the update seem to work fine though)

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #162 on:** October 23, 2008, 03:05:28 PM »

The guy at WiiBrew seemed like he'd been expecting this, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's a workaround within a few days.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #163 on:** October 23, 2008, 03:40:20 PM »

Yeah, this update sucks. Don't install it, unless you install HBC first.

That actually doesn't rule out Brandogg's guess, then, unless you have information on the intimate details of how games like FFCC interact with the Shop for purchasing their DLC.

IOS=Operating system(s) the wii uses
DVDX=DVD channel stub that alow the wii to play video DVDs
HBC=Homebrew Channel
cIOS=Custom(read hacked) IOS

Also this update block the AnyRegion Changer=Changes the wii to any region by modify the setting and/or downloading foreign system menu and/or changes the wii shop region(although only the new system menu downloader/uninstaller is actually being block) and all raw nand dumpers....

Shecky · « **Reply #168 on:** October 23, 2008, 09:46:22 PM »

Heh, well the first thing that comes to mind when I see IOS is Cisco. So people have gotten custom channels on the Wii... interesting. I wonder if they got any good homemade ones (to play/stream music that isn't flash for example)... or if they're all pirate oriented. DVD one sounds cool, wonder if it will do progressive output. Time to do a little digging I guess.

pft a Hot buttered Camels channel is better than any Homebrew channel

Well all channels except the HBC and DVDX are illegal and "pirated". They use banner code rip from a Nintendo made and copyrighted channel, the HBC has a handwritten banner (that hasn't been release because a custom banner that is bad can very easily and does brick a sh*tload of Wiis) and DVDX is a invisible channel that has no banner...

You better off running apps off a SD card using the HBC (which takes 0.2~5 sec to load).

Lst of all homebrew apps
Lst of all media playing apps
Wii media (Will be release by the end of the year)

Well I was over at the Guitar Hero forums, ya know browsing it. And some fellow who claims he got the game early said the wii update actually did activate the DLC for GHWT. He didn't post any vids or pic, but I have to say I believed him. He posted the sizes of the songs too and none of the songs exceeded 187 blocks. He said at first he couldn't access the DLC, but then he performed the system update and it allowed him to get to the store. So maybe Brandogg is right, that's saying the poster is telling the truth.

Changes to the Wii Shop Channel = allow it to be accessed in-game.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #173 on:** October 24, 2008, 11:41:03 AM »

In Europe you can't access the shop channel without updating. Guess I'll wait until it's reliably cracked before updating.

It's been accessible from in game for some time. FF:CC:MLAAK does it.
