Wii Freeloader blocked already?

This reckons so. We reported on Friday that Datel's region-cracking device had survived a minor firmware update, but a second patch has apparently rendered Wii Freeloader useless. Whoops. Just goes to show, doesn't it.

Update: Apparently this is all an "April Fool's joke" and it Wii Freeloader hasn't been blocked at all. More pure genius from the internet as it happens.

He retired from VG247, and the games industry, in 2017.
