The only part of brawl I will hate is...

[Mr. M]

False, false, and also false.

If you have the latest update, you won't have to update through the disk.

The updates are only forced if you don't have the latest update.

The updates have little to nothing to do with piracy 98% of the time. They're mostly bugfixes.

Occasionally, however, games will come with updates that haven't yet been released via wiiconnect. They usually do this with A-list titles (the last one was with Paper Mario, I believe) to get it out to as many people as possible, so I wouldn't be surprised if it happened with Brawl.

Well it seems we have to disagree, because I get every update that Nintendo has issued me before I have gotten any release game, and the STILL update. And yes, the whole point of this forced update is to brick system, not just bug fixes. True they are for bug fixes, but you aren't thinking out of the box if you believe they are just for bug fixes. They have done this with all A-List games, and I remember that I had to update my system as soon as I put in the disk. I never mind, because I can wait a few minutes.


But yes, most of these updates are to compensate the fact that someone does not have access to WiiConnect24.

woo bump

I updated regularly before I got SMG and still got the update.

I didn't have to update for Super Mario Galaxy because I updated my system before I got the game. Am I the only one?

 

[kad15]

yea updates take only couple of mins

 

[Rhubarbo]

Mario Galaxy update took me 15-30 seconds. Read the manual while waitin ^_^!

 

[The Noob Legend]

Oh the cruel, cruel 5 minute suspense...

 

[HuskytheGeek]

I really hate those ****ed system updates...

 

[Banjodorf]

Ah but that 3 minutes probably be spent drooling over the manual.

True. If I don't faint in between removing the packaging and inserting it into the Wii first.

 

[miller483]

The fact that there will probably be a system update when I put the game in... : ( and I won't be able to play before it goes in, which could take like, 10-30 minutes. Those will be the longest 10-30 minutes OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRggglrglrglrgllrglrlglrgllggggrrgg

Compared to the 1.5 years we've spent waiting for this game, that's nothing.

 

[WaterToFire]

I thought my Wii had collapsed the first time I did it, cause it never finished updating, I know how you feel.

Same here. I had to cut the power and try again.

 

[FangzV]

I'm probably going to go downstairs and play Melee real quickly if the system update takes enough time for me to do so.

 

[Jumpinjahosafa]

Wait, so... You hate something about a game... That you haven't even played yet... And there's no evidence to even suggest this feature you hate exists.

Please never speak again.

Your sig must explain how your heart feels right now.

Though that anime is kinda cool.

 

[Flaminglink]

if i find out that there will be no ranking systems at all, that will be my most hated part.

 

[Dbsg]

mine take only about 40 seconds

 

[Brockman5]

Omg your right! That's a whole 45 seconds of wasted Brawl time...!!!!
