As they often do, Nintendo has once again released a system update killing homebrew support for the Wii today, bringing us to version 4.2. Unfortunately, the benefit of updating isn't particularly great, especially if you're into the homebrew scene -- the 4.2 update completely eliminates any such content you may have on your system.
Assuming you're not the homebrew type, you won't find anything new except supposedly increased system performance. Really, this update seems to fall in line with the 4.1 update, which also attempted to stop any unauthorized, third-party channels from calling the Wii home. But just like last time (and the times before that), it's almost surely just a matter of time before the homebrew scene finds a workaround to once again let them run wild. Following that, we can all sit tight and look forward to update 4.3.

ohhhh ouch, tough break for homebrew Wii people.
