i just installed homebrew and now i was thinking of updating so games dont ask me to update. now im not sure how i did it but im able to load backups with out uloader or gamma wii gator. i just load them like normal games. but they ask me to update the system. should i update with Waninkoko 4.2 update? and if i do will i have to do anything to get backups to load again?

I thought updating to 4.2 was a no no at the moment. I heard it could make the ability to play off external usb invalid.

Updating to version 4.2 is not necessary. It was created an by Nintendo for the purpose of stopping piracy and homebrew. This did not work and it was re-hacked in a week. Version 4.2 does not provide any needed updates for games. The current version you have is fine.

so then why is it when i pop games in it ask me to update? punchout, mari kart, and super smah bros. im at 4.1. when i use the wii game loader ( not uloader or gamma loader) it ask me to update.

From what I can tell the disk tell your wii to check it version against the latest version that Nintendo has and if its not current it want to update. As far as I know no game comes with an update past 3.3 or 3.4 on it and no game needs more than that version installed.
