WiiiKey update: Firwmare 1.9b, and Config disc 1.3 - Image 1 


If you're among the Wii owners here who run their console on the WiiKey modchip, you may want to listen in. The WiiKey dev team has announced the release of their modchip's Firmware Update 1.9, which should now be available for download for the community.

Among other updates, this new build will address an issue that kept original copies of Super Smash Bros. Brawl from running properly on the Wii. As for the full list of changes:
  • Bugs fixed
    • Issue with original Super Smash Bros. Brawl discs not working fixed
    • It should now not be possible to render the chip inoperable by using patched config discs
  • New features
    • DVD update blocker: A new config option to block system updates from DVD. This prevents the Wii from loading a system update for another region.
    • Dev Mode: Remaps drive debug commands from 0xFx to 0x2x
The download for WiiKey firmware 1.9s is available over at the official modchip via the source link below. Just remember to grab the file corresponding to your Wii's region coding (US, Japan, Europe), and you'll be fine.

At least it's a release and not a proclaimed beta like the 1.9g firmware update.
