Whats the current situation with Wii’s, their firmware…

August 5th, 2016

Am considering picking up a Wii after overhearing someone say you can boot games from an external harddrive without opening up and modding the console.
I’ve done some Google’ing but alot of the articles are several months old.
So can someone please provide a little information on what’s needed an how difficult it is to do?
Anyone know if brand new Wii’s in stores are pre-loaded with the latest (4.x) firmware and if so will this be a stumbling block?
(Can the firmware be downgraded?)
Do Wii’s that load games from USB/HDD’s work online? (Obviously most of my games will have been downloaded ISO’s.)
Lastly and most importantly, does the downloadable “New Super Mario Bros” work yet?
(Last time I looked, alot of people will have problems after the first 2 levels.)
Thanks again, any and all advice is welcome.
