Hey guys this might be a stupid question, but is there a way to update your wii firmware without a internet connection? I only have 3.1E and I think I will need 3.2E to play SSBB, right?

You could rent out a new game. I think Battalion Wars has the new software on it, but I'm not sure.

I dont think Nintendo will be that stupid.

My bro rented Donkey Kong (when I took my wii on the road) and it required an update. Did it without an Internet connection.

i saw a page somewhere on the internet that lists all the Wii games which contains an update - don't remember it now.

Usually if you get one of those new games on Dual Layer discs, then it'll most likely have a later version of the update.

I don't remember Battalion Wars 2, Sega Tennis or Zack & Wiki having any updates. Could have been because I was already updated to 3.2E.

Greenbob, the reason you could do that update was because it would have been a PAL game. Updating from disc is fine with PAL, it's when you are updating the Wii with an NTSC disc/update that lies the problem.

Isn't SSBB the only dual layer game anyway?

Whooops. I just assumed he was talking about the PAL version of SSBB when it finally comes out.

I guess nobody makes a post for something that wont happen for another 20 or 30 years.

Your right, MugaHay it is the NTSC version of SSBB. You see I updated my wiikey to 1.9s to play it, but then I realised that im only on 3.1E firmware for the wii. So I think that was the reason the game doesnt work. Is it a problem that I installed 1.9s before 3.2E?

the 1.9s firmware only fixes the issue when you can't play an original SSBB disc. you may need to enable region override. if you are using a backup, then try to patch it with regionfrii.

u sure your other backups still work ok after 1.9s update? run the config disc v1.4 and check your settings.
