Wiikey update on the 15th of May

well....all i can do is pray >.<....otherwise i'll just have to wait for the dam freeloader

 

I have no problems with papermario with my wii-key? U may have a bad dump. I had a bad dump with the godfather wii game that froze and blocked.

 

The update won't fix the brick Wii problem. Even if Wiikey did find a way to do it I'd bet they would put out a Second Generation Modchip for this. (As far as I know there is no fix for the brick issue at this time but it is being worked on)

On another note it would be cool if they could come out with some sort of security that overrides a Wii gamedisc from installing an out of region update. This would prevent Wii owners from updating the disc with wrong firmware and preventing the brick.

In anycase all you need to do is keep your Wii up to date with the newest Wii firmware so the Gamedisc doesn't have a chance to install the update and brick the system with wrong region firmware.

 

As I said, they REALLY don't know when. The big mistake I've ever made is to buy this chip...

 

a lot of you guys need to stop getting so mad and be patient, why do you want and update so bad when the chip works perfectly fine now?

 

No it doesnt. GC regional direct boot is crap...

But i'm not angry... some other guys are. Its just that its anoying when word is not adhered to... dirty liars

 

Wah, the biggest mistake i ever made was buy this chip. Im serious, i hate it, they wont update it ever! This was the biggest mistake because they will never give me that update! Sure, my chip works perfectly now, and allows me to play all the backups I have, but this update is the most important thing ever! Huge mistake!

 

So ? Nobody is keeping you from buying another chip ? I bet they are as reliable as wiikey for now. You never know, maybe guys at wiikey really developing tools to make future updates faster, eh ? then what ? you'll be stuck with "another" chip that may be not ubdated as frequently as you'd like...

I wish it was as easy as PS1 or PS2. My ps2 slim after shipped in 2004 never needed any updates, but this is next gen we're talking about...

 

I was being sarcastic. All these people complaining and yet the chip still works, still plays backups, etc.

 

Are you serious? You curse the chip and in the same breath say that it's working perfectly. You don't even know what the update is going to do and you say that this is the most important thing ever! Calm down! The chip is working fine. They'll release an update when it's ready. You don't need it right now anyway. Sheeesh

 

The chip DOES NOT work fine. It does not play GC games with audio streaming (the wikey team said the chip does out-of-the-box) meaning that die-hard Naruto and eternal darkness fans can't play the games they had on the GC.

The biggest mistake for me was not getting the chip, but selling my Gamecube on eBay. If I still had it, I could still play Naruto GNT 4.

But Naruto GNT EX would be nice too...

 

DUDE read the post right above yours... .I was being sarcastic cuz thats what most of these people are basically saying. They are just bitching about an update, that probably wont even do anything for them.

 

just buy a gamecube off ebay then if it means so much they are going for £10-£20

 

I was quoting DraTs where he said it worked perfectly for him! He didn't say anything about any GC games.

Oh I see. My bad

 

boohoo it doesnt play a couple gamecube games, didnt you buy a wii to play wii games? I know the gamecube part is a nice feature but it really isnt that big of a deal

 

Well, here's the scoop - some of us never owned GC, so it is pretty important. And wii library is rubbish at the time anyways, so...

I am an old wolf when it comes to modding scene, but someone who just got in they know squat about ways to run games, modify iso's, patch stuff etc... So, i consider GC issue a serious one. And as i was saying earlier i can live with what i have now but i like when people deliver on their promises...hence a bit of bitching...

 

I'm beginning to wish I hadn't got a Wiikey either

 

Well, at least something...

 

thats enough out of you larry! LOL.

It's nothing new. There are a couple of GC games that the wiikey doesn't play and that hasn't changed since day one. People are just crying because they haven't released an update yet that promises NOTHING anyway.

 

they even don't know when it will be avalaible. Pityfull.
