Wii Menu update 3.3 goes live – Freeloader & Twilight Hack busted

Nintendo have just put live a new Wii Menu update bringing the Wii Menu to version 3.3. Officially Nintendos change log says that with this update you can move a Mii from the Mii Plaza to The Mii Parade in the Mii Channel. This will of course do the same as deleting it from a game so dont delete any attached to a save file. Secondly, and this one is a big one, the update kills and deletes the Twilight Princess hack. More inside The hack which enabled the installation of homebrew and other things is confirmed to be deleted upon update. It is confirmed that this update kills the Freeloader. If you have homebrew or Freeloader it may just be best to wait if you want to retain the above functionality.

More as it happens.

Wii Menu version 3.3 is now available for your Wii Console. To update your Wii Menu to the latest version, please select the Update button at the bottom of the screen or select the System Update option
in Wii System Settings.

With this update, you can now move a Mii from the Mii Plaza to The Mii Parade in the Mii Channel. To do this, simply pick up a Mii using the A and B Buttons and then release it over the Mii Parade icon in the upper-right corner of the screen.

Because unauthorized modifications to save files may impair game play or the Wii console, updating to Wii Menu version 3.3 will also check for and automatically remove such save files.

**Please note: If you’ve updated your Wii Menu after June 17, you may not need to update again.

Thank you for updating your Wii
Console
