I too have got 3.4E and would like to update the Wii Shop Channel so my daughter can use WiiSpeak. As you suggest, I tried to use WiiSCU to update the Wii Shop Channel. However, although it seem to install OK, when I try to use it, it just crashes back to the menu. Do I also need to update the IOS? If so, which version is recommended? ---- Later that evening...
