I think you just bricked your Wii......

Were you trying to update the firmware with Smash Brother JPN? You're not supposed to update via games that are not for your region. NTSC U/C can only update with NTSC U/C games and NTSC J can only update with NTSC J games.

Looking as how a normally modded Wii US machine shud be clean of channels, u seem to have gotten a 2nd hand one, or a refurbished one. Sorry man.

what happened was the owner did a smash bro update or any NTSC jap games into the console before selling it to you. That's the reason you got two channel there. I believe your console also cannot do the latest update firmware.

Go back to the shop and ask him to flash back the ori setting. (no point formatting the console as the firmware is stuck there permanent)
