K ive been off the Wii scene for a bit.
I need have a wiikey, and i need to know what the latest updates are so that i can play SMG. Is v1.9g or 1.9b newer, the tutorial has both but doesnt really make that clear. I assume i only need 1 of them?
So this is what I think i know:
The latest wiikey version is v1.9b and this will allow me to play metroid prime: corruption and super mario galaxy (both PAL versions on my PAL console).
The latest update disc is v1.3?
Also when i try to connect to Wii Shop Channel it tells me i need to receive the new Wii System Update. I have Ver. 3.0E
Wats the new versions and is it safe to update to this. Or should i upgrade my wiikey using v1.9b and the v1.3 disc?

I think the system updates says not to upgrade if you modded it, I don't sure p.m. Vaughan he'll know.

Sorry I have been playing Oblivion lately.
Anyway it is safe to update you wii to v3.1
(For the time being if any new updates come out check here before updating.)
The other updates are for you Wiikey, You can go straight to the latest one which is v1.9g last time I checked, also there is a setup disc which is separate. The setup disc has features and lets you to change Wiikey settings.
Hope that answers everything?

k sweet ty.
and btw, the links in ur tut are dead, although i found them after a bit of googling.![]()
btw i just researched on the net,
I found a lot of people have had problems with 1.9g.
After a while the Wii stops reading backup discs all together!

hmm so what precautions should i take before updating, and can you tell me in what order.
eg. 1 - update firmware to 3.1
2 - update wiikey to v1.9
And has anyone had problems with v1.9g?
and by the sounds of it i dont even need to use the 1.3 set up disc? I dont use gc backups...
P.S. I am using a PAL Wii with a PAL Backup of SMG

Sorry but as RipeTomatoe said the WiiKey site is down...
There is nothing I can do.

Can this be added to the tutorial, as a part of the "my disc gives me a read error"?:
I had that problem with everything, and I fixed it by using a recovery dvd. For some reason, my chips firmware arrived corrupted. So using a recovery dvd should be part of the answer to that question.

I just got a 2nd hand modded wii. It has the version 3.0j with a wiikey.
I know th'at I need to upgrade wiikey to 1.9s. But at wiikey.cn, there is the Config disc images and latest update 1.9 file, which one should i use and what is the diff?
Is there any advice as to what to upgrade? should I upgrade to 3.1j or whatever firmware? Is there any games that I need to avoid?
Thanks a lot for the help!
