Wii 4.3 firmware update released
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 2 Comments
Last night, we brought you the news that an update for the DSi was made available. As it turns out, Nintendo also released a new version of the Wii firmware. The upgrade sounds like it’s pretty minor based on the official description:
“An update that provides behind-the-scenes improvements to Wii Menu 4.3.
It doesn’t sound like there’s a particular reason why Nintendo released upgrades for the DSi and Wii firmware on the same day. Even though no huge features were added, it’s probably worth it to download the updates on both systems.

WiiWare demo program returns with Surinuke Anatousu in Japan
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Nintendo supported WiiWare demos in 2009 by offering a batch of downloads on the Shop Channel, but the same cannot be said this year. Up to this point, it seemed that demos had essentially been abandoned, even though the program received very warm feedback. Good news, though. Well, if you’re living in Japan that is.
If you happen to own a Japanese Wii, you can try out Surinuke Anatousu free of charge. Interestingly, this is the first time Nintendo has launched a demo alongside the release of a WiiWare title. Hopefully this is a sign that the demo program will receive greater support in the future, and perhaps Nintendo will consider releasing demos to coincide with new game releases more often.
