The latest Wii system update breaks SD Media Launcher

[Gunnex]

I think I read on Eurogamer that Action Replay and Freeloader also fail to boot now.

All Datel products, maybe they will work on a fix?

Wraggy, it may be a good idea to amend the SDML and Action Replay ads so Wii customers don't get burned.

It be true, no AR for me.

PS: Is GCOS a modchip or what? Is it refferring to running the GC BIOS on their own?

Anybody else experiencing the same issue of "unable to boot the disc that comes with SDML" after this week's update?

[Man]

Everyone that is b***hing about piracy on the wii, your hypocrites, just because theres people using modchips to play burned games, doesnt mean the system will fail, lets just say that computer companies made it so that you couldnt play your downloaded mp3s, then youd be singing a different tune, so to speak, mp3s and movies have been out on the internet to download for years, yet, steven speilberg still owns a multi million dollar mansion, and briteny spears can get away with whatever she wants, why you ask, because she still makes money, Nintendo, will still make money, the wii will not fail, so STFU about god dam piracy! its not like every single wii owner has a modchip and downloads games, i dont see anyway the wii can fail at the rate its going, i still buy games, and i could just as easily rent and burn them, but i dont! but im still not updating my system.

I hate Nintendo for this. Why can't they support homebrew, if they do, they'll keep homebrew hackers from finding out ways into the console, and pirates always just take the things the homebrewers make and use them for piracy. I hate piracy, and it can do serious damage to the industry, but homebrew is something that all consoles should do, after all, we paid for the hardware, we should be able to do what we feel like with it. Datel needs to press a loader DVD for Wii, compatible with current FW, that can load from the SD card, that way we can mod the firmware to allow SD and AR to work again.

Ah well, I'm still going to buy a GCAR and SDML just so I can use them on my Cube, even if they don't work on the Wii, maybe they will after some hacking takes place.
