Wii update scuppers imports

Your IT - Entertainment

Nintendo have released Wii Menu version 3.3 for download to all those little blue lit gaming consoles.  With this small update Nintendo introduce some Mii tweeks and more importantly closes some piracy methods including Freeloader and the Zelda hack.

With version 3.3 of the Wii Menu, Freeloader (the system enabling Wii owners to bypass region encoding on Nintendo releases) has now been hamstrung.

No more imports, even if that desirable game is not released in your particular region.  *sob*.

Nintendo have also hobbled the Zelda: Twilight Princess hack.  This was an exploit using a Zelda save-game process to install and run homebrew software.

Here is the official Nintendo text regarding version 3.3;

Wii Menu version 3.3 is now available for your Wii Console. To update your Wii Menu to the latest version, please select the Update button at the bottom of the screen or select the System Update option
in Wii System Settings.

With this update, you can now move a Mii from the Mii Plaza to The Mii Parade in the Mii Channel. To do this, simply pick up a Mii using the A and B Buttons and then release it over the Mii Parade icon in the upper-right corner of the screen.

Because unauthorized modifications to save files may impair game play or the Wii console, updating to Wii Menu version 3.3 will also check for and automatically remove such save files.

**Please note: If you've updated your Wii Menu after June 17, you may not need to update again.

Thank you for updating your Wii
Console
