Wii System Update 4.1 released

wii glow

Anybody wake up to the soothing glow on their Wii this morning?

Well, don’t get too excited, the new update apparently is just a “behind the scenes fix” to improve overall system performance.

The firmware update was released to fix a bug in Wii Sports Resort that affected Japanese gamers (nothing major, just had to do with Wii Motion Plus and the intro video), but now you can rest assured that the UK and North America won’t suffer the same fate, as long as you update…

    I just downloaded this upgrade and now I keep getting booted off of MarioKart! I’ll get 3/4 of the way through a race and it will say Disconnected from other players! Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem or if one has anything at all to do with the other. Thanks

    I heard that the “behind the scenes” fix meant this update will delete/disable all homebrew.
