Changed to discuss RVL-CPU-20
'''RVL-CPU-30''' is the third major hardware revision of the Wii. It has a smaller [[Hardware/Broadway|Broadway]], but the main differences are found in the preburnt [[Hardware/NAND|NAND]]. Some people refer to these as LU64+ Wiis, due to many Wiis with this revision starting with LU64 or higher. However, there are Wiis below LU64 with this revision as well.
'''RVL-CPU-20''' is the second major hardware revision of the Wii. It has simpler power circuitry, which resulted in all versions of [[IOS]] being updated for compatibility. These new IOSes were also pushed to [[RVL-CPU-01]] consoles in the [[3.3rev03]] and [[3.4]] updates ([[3.5rev02]] in Korea), and came along with fixes for the [[signing bug]], [[:/dev/flash]] access, and ES_DiVerify access.
They were once referred to as "unsoftmoddable" due to the cheaper power system slowing down [[IOS]] reloads and therefore breaking [[libogc]], but this was easily fixed by updating libogc. [[boot2v4]] also created issues in [[mini]], which broke the [[HackMii Installer]], but this was also easily fixed by updating mini.

* [[boot2v4]] is the new [[boot2]] version.

* [[IOS3]], [[IOS4]], and [[IOS254]] are now stubbed, even in cases where the latest update does not stub them

* Many older [[IOS]] versions (minor versions, not slots) no longer work, although a few, such as [[IOS15]] and [[IOS16]], can still be safely downgraded.
