Wait, taking out the disc during an update will brick you? Is nintendo retarded or something?
What if the disc is scratched to a point?

The update files are stored on the disk. If only some of the files are installed, and not others, it will result in a brick. I don't think Nintendo is "retarded" because of it.

The update files actually should be copied from the disc to the NAND before being installed. Perhaps they actually are, but something else went wrong. After all, this is what happens during an online update.

I didn't quite mean "retarded" it's more of a, what were they thinking? They really should have protection from this type of thing imo.
It would save them money.

I dunno... It seems like a silly/stupid thing to me, taking out the disc during an update, that is. I mean, what was the point of that in the first place?

agree!

oh, I mean I agree that nintendo is retarded :)
