Massive core update finally completed. This core update includes many improvements, such as:
Joystick configurations now savable. No corruption has yet occurred through dozens of saving/loading cycles.
Game is much more stable. Random crashes seem nonexistent.
Sound distortions are at an all-time low. Pops/crackles hardly noticeable, if at all.
This core update also includes all previous improvements, such as the on-screen keyboard and menu exclusions/changes to avoid any possible problems resulting from settings incompatible with the Wii.
