The 3.3rev03 update brought along various IOS updates, along with a Wii Shop Channel update. Almost all versions of IOS had IOS37's fix for the signing bug applied to them, just as System Menu 3.3 fixed it in IOS30 and IOS31. Old System Menu IOS versions not used by any games were also stubbed to save space.

This was the first homebrew-affecting update that did not update the System Menu, which led to some confusion about this being System Menu 3.4 or "System Menu 3.3 (Version 2)." While the real 3.4 was released a few weeks later, this update is still distinct.

Changes

Compatibility with Wii homebrew

These updates are on every game disc whose update partition includes System Menu 3.4 or later.

Stub variant

3.3rev03 introduced the first four stub IOSes, all of which had identical code. They were all size 245760, and were built by yasuh-to@TONKAT.

The IOS30 stub introduced in 3.4 is also of this stub variant.
