Wii uses "channels" to show its different applications, one of those channels is the Virtual Console where you can buy and play retro games from nes, snes, sega, etc... Hackers found a way that allows one to run unsigned code in the Wii using an original copy of the game The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and some code in an SD card, that way, you can play retro games without paying for them using your own ROMs and you get to run some other homebrew apps. Can't post a link to the program for obvious reasons, but you can Google it or go to a site like maxconsole.net where you will find more info about it.
Good Luck
The updates refer to the firmware that the Wii is running, it is updated every once in a while by Nintendo providing new features and fixing problems like the vulnerability that lets you run your own ROMs. So, when you get your Wii, do nt update it immediately, as if you do so, you will loose your chance to take advantage of the exploit, at least 'till is hacked once again.
