-   My son has this same problem. Anybody know what to do? I had to purchase a Japan wii.

We tried this but it would not read the disc??

This happened to my Wii till i came across this youtube video. So basically, i look for a file called - wii-ntsc-systemmenu-v289 - paste that into google and you'll find links to the actual file. Burn the iso on a DVD-R then popped it into my wii. Go run the CD and it will immediately ask you for an update. Click ok and let it run. After it updates, volla! i can go to my settings and my current version is now 3.2U.

And also put in a new game that just came out and it did update but we still have this problem.


Thanks for any help anyone might have. -   kopera77

The solution to this is rather simple. Just wait for the next Nintendo first party game to be released, get that game and make sure it is the same region as your Wii and load it up. Most first party titles by Nintendo comes with a firmware checker, it checks the firmware in your Wii and updates it to the latest version on the disc. Run the update if the disc prompts you to, and it should install the firmware as per the same region as your Wii, and unlocks the Wii Settings menu.

For me, I used Link’s Crossbow Training. It ran on my Wii and asked for a firmware update. I installed the update, and behold, my Wii Setting menu is back up and running Firmware 3.0U.

My modified wii (Japan version) updated to 3.1J on Dec 07 and it works well until last week. After I played some games which turned out error code, then same problem appeared to me. Once I click on wii settings tab I get error of unavailable web address & 2 "opera help" links.

Although my wii can still play games, but I can no longer to access the wii settings tab.

Thanks

I have the same problem as "side"

if I update the firmware to 3.0u, will my pirated games still work ? I am afraid that the update might fiddle with the mod-chip

Hi, when I try to log into the setup function of the console to change the language from Japanese to English, it comes back with "unable to connect or check address or something like that... and will not let me in."

Do you know how I can reset this function or correct this issue?
The games seem to play fine, but I can not setup the console functions.

Thanks
