According to Major Nelson in this blog post, there have been many updates to XBox 360 titles, including both Hardwood Hearts and SmashTV.
While it has been reported that the Hearts update does fix the achievements issue, we’re still looking into what the SmashTV update solves.

According to a member of Silver Creek Entertainment, the patch for Hardwood Hearts is:
…its basically right there next in the que for launch, and that it could be anytime here.
So hopefully it will be out sometime this weekend so that we can all start working on those last achievements.

Reading through the forums it has become apparent that not only are Silver Creek planning an update to fix some of the many bugs in hearts, but there are also planning an update to add some of the features that people have been asking for. So far it looks like at minimum we will see:
While it is good to see these things being added, one must wonder why they weren’t in the game to start with.

So as is a well known fact now there are two achievements that cannot be reached in both Outpost Kaloki X and Hardwood Hearts. The Achievements are:
Outpost Kaloki X
Hardwood Hearts
Both games have cause gamers to flock to the developers board demanding that things be set right, this is where things differ…
Let me pause it here and state for the record that I do own both games and while I do enjoy Hearts, Kaloki is one of my favorite games available for the 360.
The developer for Kaloki is NinjaBee. The have been very tight lipped about a fix (to the point of never even saying that there would be one) and have gone on to paint the picture that the reason they aren’t saying anything is that Microsoft won’t let them. This is exactly what you would expect from a developer and what you would expect from Microsoft.
Until…
Silver Creek Entertainment is the company that has put out Hearts, and they have been, in stark contrast, extremely open about a fix, stating a couple times a day what the status is and what exactly it will contain.
All in all you have to hand it to Silver Creek for being so open about it. My guess, based on the way ninjabee is going about this, is that there will never be a fix for Kaloki, mostly due to the game not being set up to allow it.
