August 8, 2007 ? the bad.
Nintendo has sent a message to all Wii owners warning ?If your Wii console has an unauthorized technical modification, this upgrade could cause inoperability of your console.? News of this firmware update is still fresh, and we?ve yet to test this, or hear any comments on which mod chips are affected or if they all remain unaffected. Update with caution!
the good?
There is now a digital clock placed on the main menu reminding players that time flies when they?re inevitably having fun. Another change to the Wii menu will be found on the forecast channel. Now the forecast channel will display the current weather in the channel selection interface. The message board now has a new ?Today?s Accomplishments? option to display games you?ve played.
The Wii Shop channel has had a considerate makeover. The welcome screen has been redone, showing four recommended titles. There is now a list of popular titles, and new options to search for games by name, genre, and publisher.
Finally, USB keyboards can now be used to type as opposed to pointing in some channels. The Wii Shop Channel, and memo and mail writing can now utilize USB keyboard support. Unfortunately, the USB keyboard is not compatible with the Opera browser as of yet?but it could be safe to assume this trend will eventually follow onto web browsing.

[07.08.08] Wii firmware 3.0 issues
Nintendo has released firmware 3.0 via online updates. It will NOT brick or disable Wiikey; however, base and config discs will not load 'natively', neither will any other GC disc with El Torito standard header format. WiiNewz have reported that there are already tools available for building bootable config and setup discs, as well as other discs with applications and emulators. We are currently researching why the El Torito format no longer works. Once this is completed new versions of the config and base system disc will be made available.Categories: None
