Two updates in one day. What are the odds?


This morning when I woke up my Wii was glowing blue (Your mind IS in the gutter) and I was surprised to see there was an upate available. What does it do? According to Nintendo:

Wii
Menu
The weather forecast will now be displayed on the Forecast Channel icon in the Wii Menu.
Headline news will now be displayed on the News Channel icon in the Wii Menu.
The current time will now be displayed in the Wii Menu.
The area around the Wii Message Board button will now flash when a message arrives.

Wii Message Board
You're now able to rearrange the order of your Wii Friends in the address book.
You're now able to go into the Wii Friends registration screen by pressing the A Button on a blank spot in the address book.
Envelope message icons will now appear on the calendar only on the dates when a message is received.
Your message sending history will now be displayed in Today's Accomplishments.
You can now scroll the message text by pressing the B button on the message screen.

Wii Shop Channel
The search function on Virtual Console has been enhanced.

And as I turn on my 360 tonight BAM! An update is available. What does it do? If we are to believe Major Nelson:

"this minor release will [...] prepare your Xbox 360 for the wireless guitars that are being released in a few months."

A freakin' Guitar Hero update... Damn! Oh well...
