Hey there,

Me again, making another post =/

I've been wondering about this new update(the one with the shop channel update saying something about WiiWare), will it brick a wii with a wiikey? I've searched the forums this time, and google, and the WiiKey site.

If this isn't allowed here, please don't hit me =[

Have you tried this?

What is your source?

I know the WiiKey is stealth, but I have a feeling it may be brick-able still some how =/

So you just guessed this information? I was just curious because if there was a website, I would've been very annoyed at google..

The wiikey has nothing to do with the shop channel, nor to that point the firmware at this point. All it does inject its own code to tell the wii that the disk in the drive is legitimate....

At this point (and pretty much history says) that a modchip wont be effected by any firmware updates (i mean if that was the case wouldnt they have changed the firwae rather than make 3- 4 attempts at changing the hardware?

Dont stress the update wont effect the modchip.... however these firmware updates effect Homebrew in the long run.

i don't need to explain myself to a noob

But I didn't =/

I just asked you if you'd tried/what your sources were and I was concerned that it may still be brick-able because I'm new to this.
