Via email i got from GameworldDirect.co.uk

I don't know if it's true or not, but apparently the latest firmware update from Nintendo will render your Nintendo Wii console useless as it is said to not play ANY games whatsoever, it is also said not to complete any updates until they have further information.

I think it's only UK (and European) Wii's, I'm not even sure if there is currently an update at the moment for the UK (I haven't checked my Wii for days). I don't think there is a problem with the U.S. firmware update, so I don't think need to worry.

Laugh all you want- it friggin took me forever to figure out why the damned thing kept doing that and how to stop it.

As far as the update goes, in the US, took the update, no problems.
