The New Wii Update Has Killed All Forms of The Freeloader and Action Replay!

[Kyle15]

This is awful! Now the new version of the freeloader doesn't even work.
You know what else? I can't even get the swap trick to work for some strange reason. Maybe they fixed it, maybe I'm just having a bad day getting it to work. All in all, this completely makes me sick.
Glad I saved my GC for my collection....

Your thoughts?

Gamecubes just rose in value.

Gamecubes just rose in value.

They most certainly have.
Nintendo has also turned legal impoters into pirates now, due to the fact that a mod chip must be bought. Oh well...

Can you explain this for those of us not in the know? What is different now?

Basically, upon startup of the discs in question, an error will pop up. It says that, "an attempt to modify the system was aborted". This is all that the new update does, aside from adding a nifty digital clock to the menu.

Cool.

It did alot more than that, my friend.

[8-bitNesMan]

So what does the freeloader do? play import GC games?

[norkusa]

Guess this means I'll be getting mod chip when I finally get around to buying a Wii. Thanks Nintendo!

G4Tech Tvs "Attack of the show" said that the new update would mess up anybodies Wii that had been modified, so if it was do not update.

Sweet! I'm glad I just bought my spice GC and still have a stock pile of US GCs I can use Freeloader on. It does suck that my Jap GC can't use component cables so it won't look as crisp.

I'd love to see the legal justification Nintendo has on destroying ("bricking") someone else's property because the owner of said item did something Nintendo didn't like.

Yes, I know.
Do I have to really list everything?

[schnuth]

I was thinking of buying a Wii compatible Freeloader too, good thing I held off. I still have my Gamecube though which I originally kept for the Gameboy Player. Now it seems that holding on to it was a good idea. So how long until a new version of the Freeloader comes out?

This sucks

I guess I have to play my import GCN games on the family TV? I have not done the update yet but I imagine that is why my Wii is glowing blue? To notify me of the update?

Good thing i hang onto my gc then beside for useing 'it for the gb player.

Still what's got into nintendo all of the sudden ?

To stop importing or becuase of the use for "modchips on playing burns ?

All i got is a ar but i've never used it to play import gc titles though.

Oh well there's been times i was thinking of letting the, GC go it's a good thing i did keep it.

[Kyle15]

I'm glad I kept mine too.

The Shop Channel had an overhaul, some support for USB-keyboards added and various other minor tweaks.

That is definitely not true.
