The Glowing Wii

Yeah there's new firmware upgrade out. It's seems tp only update the aesthetics of the Wii's home screen and certain channels. More so, the Wii Shop channel. It gets a complete overhaul.

One more thing, those who have modded Wii's (which I don't think is any of us) should NOT download this upgrade as it forewarns:
If your Wii console has an unauthorized technical modification, this upgrade could cause interoperability of your console.
Wii v3.0

Is this an automatic update or do you have to download it yourself?

Yeah, there is this special semi-transparent window that says "now updating system files..." or something like that right when I turn the system on. Maybe b/c I play it so infrequently? I dunno? Anyone?

I thought it did auto-updates, might be a feature you have to enable...

I am guessing this is a feature that you can turn on/off but I don't think I ever enabled it...maybe I did? I am getting old.

LucasArts to Unleash the Force on the Wii in Spring 2008
Star Wars™: The Force Unleashed™ Coming to Nintendo's Platform with Exclusive Duel Mode


SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. - Sept. 18, 2007 - LucasArts today revealed that Star Wars™: The Force Unleashed™ will come to the Wii™ home videogame system from Nintendo next spring, offering owners the unique chance to live out their Jedi fantasies by wielding the Wii Remote™ as a lightsaber while using the Nunchuk™ controller to torment foes with their Force™ powers.

The Force Unleashed casts players as Darth Vader's "Secret Apprentice" and promises to unveil new revelations about the Star Wars galaxy. The game's expansive story is set during the largely unexplored era between Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. In it, players will assist the iconic villain in his quest to rid the universe of Jedi - and face decisions that could change the course of their destiny.

The Wii version, in development by Krome Studios, will also add an exclusive duel mode in which players can compete head-to-head with their friends to determine the ultimate Jedi Master.

"The Wii is a great platform for The Force Unleashed, because the console's motion-oriented controllers really bring the game to life," said Jim Ward, President of LucasArts. "We've worked hard to make the Wii version of the game unique in order to truly let you unleash the Force."

I kinda wish Red Steel was a better swordplay game. But I guess in the realm of sword fights Light Sabers™ are right up there with katanas.

But yar, that be a pretty tall order they be fillin'. They'd best be doin' good lest they be meetin the rope's end. Gyar!
