Wii Batch IOS Update Released, Do not update - Image 1

If you value your Wiibrew, better no update to the latest issue from Nintendo just yet.

The latest update contains changes to various IOS versions, according to Wiibrew.org, and updating isn't recommended at this point until more is known about it.

It won't be surprising if the latest update really does have more homebrew blocks, as Nintendo has pulled off that kind of thing in past updates.

Here is a list of the updated IOS versions according to the Wiibrew Wiki:

IOS16

Likely added to thwart its use for piracy.

IOS38

Slightly updated version (one minor version number) of the title included with Animal Crossing: City Folk.

IOS60

High version number suggests this is the latest IOS currently available and will likely be used for the 3.5 System Menu update for Japan, US and European regions.

IOS61

Possible use as the new Shop Channel IOS.

Nintendo hates homebrew:
