may this be a lesson to you, DON'T USE WANINKOKO'S DOWNGRADER!!!

Especially if you don't know how to use it. Once you update to 4.0 its over.. There isnt a homebrew 4.0 (YET)

(25 March 09: Nintendo has released System Menu 4.0, which includes a batch of IOS updates. Installing new homebrew is disabled by this version, so updating is not recommended at this point.)

I hope my wii never bricks, cause im sure nintendo is going to start making wii's with system menu 4.0 which was made to disable the zelda twlight hack... :(]]> Soul6ess FixMiiTue, 21 Apr 2009 20:33:03 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,12999,14817#msg-14817 Re: Wii bricked by homebrew 4.0 updatehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,12999,14817#msg-14817
