New Wii update attempts to eliminate homebrew
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 16 Comments
Wii owners who wish to continue with homebrew may be interested in holding back on the latest system update. Upgrading to 4.2 will effectively kill the channel through deletion. According to Nintendo, menu 4.2 “provides behind-the-scene fixes that will not affect features but will improve the overall system performance,” but also warns that the update “will also check for and automatically remove such save data (unauthorized modifications to save data or program files) or program files.”
It should be noted that this is the first time Nintendo has intentionally taken on the heart of homebrew. Although previous action was taken to disable homebrew installation, an update has never actually removed the channel.
