wiimpersonator is a tool that connects to Nintendo's update servers, and fetches information about any new system updates. Wiimpersonator can also fetch Wii U updates due to the Wii U having the same update system.

As of 3 April 2021, wiimpersonator no longer is checking for updates due to a dependency on the now-deprecated Python 2. Past reports are still available.

Note that the first 3 entries were not created on April 15; they were instead generated before Wiimpersonator went public. The first was from March 9th, the second from March 20th, and the third from March 22nd.

The first update detected by wiimpersonator was 3.2rev02. However, 2 days later, 3.2rev03 was released, including IOS37. This was how IOS37 was immediately discovered.
