The Wiikey team has rolled out an update for their new Wiikey 2 modchip. This update deals mostly with blocking Wii updates from the wrong regions.

Let’s say you have a US Wii. You’ll end up bricking it if you try to update it with an update for another region, say Japan. The problem here is that sometimes, these updates come with games themselves and so are a bit harder to keep track of.

This Wiikey 2 update adds a new Update Blocker feature which blocks other-region updates to your Wii but allows own-region updates. If you don’t feel like updating, you can also set it to block all updates regardless of region.
