    I have 2 questions...

    1. I recently got a PAL Wii and updated it with an "official" Super Mario Galaxy game. Would it be ok if i got a Wiikey installed in my PAL Wii with this firmware update installed??

    2. Do i have to install Wiikey firmware version 1.9g if i have an official Super Mario Galaxy game???

    Thanks in advance!

    Well I really want to buy a Jap game that I like and doesn't require much translation to play with! I was thinking of the Wii Fit but since it would be in Japanese that would mean I can't read it and thats $150 USD sorta wasted!

    I don't know the firmware for metroid 3. I think it is less than ver 3.0. If so, you can use japanese SMG because it has 3.0J. Somebody help what firmware is Metroid 3

    Can someone please confirm this for me so I don't brick by mistake:

    If I have latest 3.1J firmware in my Wii-J, and I play Metroid 3 ntsc/u and it asks to update, I can safely say 'yes' and it will skip actual update because I have latest firmware?

    Or, will it update anyway and I will end up with bricked wii?

    Some games will not play if first patched with Brick Blocker (such as Wii Degree and Metroid Prime 3)

    Thanks for the help everyone!

    It seems to be version 2.2: READ THIS

    In theory, it shouldn't brick your Wii, however I haven't tried myself

    ok om thx guys, but i have one last question. Since my wii is modded with wiikey, is it possible that the wii fit update reconize my wii as modded and brick it totally. Where I live a wii is very very hard to get so i really fear the total brick

    Does your wii have the D2ckey chip ?
    I have this chip & updated with the SMG game and all went perfect.

    I would try it again, it won't do any harm.

    Guys please help in this question, my wii was semi bricked by guitar hero 3. And since I believe that wii fit will unbrick it, i let metroid corruption and mario party 8 updates run. I though there would be no problem since wii fit update will replace it all.

    Can u guys tell me if this will do any harm, I mean wii fit will still be able to fix it right (since its firmware is superior). Please take me out of despair
