Hmmm... I just updated my Wii earlier today (as I had been out of town)... Do I have this new update or not? Seems silly not to change the version number.... guess I'll have to go check....

My guess is you don't. I was watching a movie and saw the Wii message light turn on at 10:30 pm Eastern time. I got all excited, then was pretty disappointed with out boring it was. I would have had more fun receiving more photos of my friend's dog.

Wonderful. Now just fix the Freeloader issue that popped up, guys.

Hah, I wish. Somehow I don't think that was a "problem."

So, is Nintendo going to step up on the online? Maybe if they confirm it on Brawl, then the industry will look somewhat differently.

Very interesting.

I just got the message saying that I did need to download the upgrade. So I went to do it. After I confirmed that I wanted to upgrade, I got the following message:

"IMPORTANT: If you do not want to accept this upgrade, you can shut down you Wii console and cancel the upgrade by holding down the Power Button for four (4) seconds. If your Wii console has an unauthorized technical modification, this upgrade could cause inoperatability of your console."

Aside from the fact that I'm not convinced that "inoperatability" is actually a word, I don't think I've ever seen this message before... anyone else?

I saw that when I upgraded to 3.0U, so if I see it for this update it'll be the second time I see it.

I also recieved the "IMPORTANT: If you do not want to accept this upgrade..." message as well. It was the first time I had ever seen it and it made me nervous, but being up for an adventure I did it anyway. Hopefully I never see it again.

If only they could put their programmers to good use, there would be no stopping them

Why must Nintendo release all their Wii updates when I can't download them right away.

Nintendo Europe never announced the 3.0 release anyway, so lots and lots of people will be getting that version bundled in with this patch

Important question of the day!!!!!!

Can I now use USB keyboard in internet browser?

They also seem to have fixed the issue that once plagued me. My Wii was not reset to use Internet Connection 1 after this update!

Updates I'd like to see:
- Super Smash Bros. Brawl online mode
- The use of an external hard drive.
- Using the remote to reset/exit during a GCN game.

I don't think we're ever going to see much of an improvement when it comes to GameCube features. I think the only GCN game still being published is LoZ:TP - and since that's out for Wii, I seriously doubt Nintendo wants to go out of their way to encourage people to buy old/used games when they're offering so many newer games (Wii, DS, VC)...

yay this patch fixed the problems i was having connecting to news/weather and shopping channels.

i never had the problem they mentioned in their message (the internet channel freezing up) after the last update, i did however get messages saying i was connected to the internet when using any other channel but the Internet channel. now its fixed and i can finally download that metroid channel!
