'''IOS55''' is an [[IOS]] that some games starting in late 2008 use. v4633 is identical to [[IOS51]]v4633, probably to allow IOS51 to be updated without compatibility issues, although in reality, IOS51 was immediately [[Stub IOS|stubbed]].

It can be an update for the new wireless USB Driving Wheel from Logitech, supported only by Need for Speed: Undercover.

Installation from NfS Undercover-disc keeps [[System Menu 3.3]] and does not(!) install [[System Menu 3.4]] when system had 3.3 before.
+
== Purpose and anti-piracy ==
 +
This IOS is presumably required by NfS: Undercover to make a [[Logitech USB steering wheel]] work. However, this does not explain why the other games require it although, in the case of The Conduit, it is possible that there is a connection between its usage and support for the Wii Speak peripheral (it has been reported that both [[IOS38]] and IOS55 are required by the official Nintendo Wii Speak channel).
 +
 
 +
Typically, if a game that requires this IOS is started without it (via brickblocker or a Starfall update skip, for example), then the screen will turn blue and a white-text error message [[Error 002]] will appear. The Conduit behaves somewhat differently as it will simply display a black screen before freezing.
