Wii U - thread 3

[BIG EDD]

Same here I downloaded the update at 1920 last night took 50mins for the whole process with no problems at all

Not my connection.

120Mb fibre that my PS3, Laptop, phone etc have no problem maintaining a connection to. To be sure I had nothing else connected and had the Wii U right next to the router.

Quite a few people having problems with the wii u and its slow or inconsistent wifi issues wish Nintendo would do something about this issue??

I fail to understand how they didn't see it coming.

Agreed. Didn't the exact same thing happen with the 3DS initially? I remember a lot of adverts to the effect of "Nintendo 3DS is a brand new console which plays brand new games and is brand new (seriously it's not another DS revision)" for its first year.

Still, it seems that issue has passed now, so the Wii / Wii U confusion for the average consumer may only be a temporary problem.

Update went fine for me too ... about 45mins in all..

System is definitely more snappier now

Good to see SMW is the US ver. I know it's not exactly cheap but I'm happy to vote with my wallet for 60HZ SNES awesomeness.

Well im having the same issues updating the Wii U. It really is the worst machine for connecting to the internet. Its not my connection because like others have said my PS3/Xbox and everything else connects with no problem but Wii U i have nothing but problems with. It really is frustrating.

No bricks so far at least

Yes, just visit the eshop. It's right there.

re virtual console - i have not yet transferred my wii stuff to the wii u, but was wondering how it works. do i still have to keep the games on an SD card if they dont fit in the wii partition memory?

if i buy smw (at the discount) do i have to buy this through the wii bit or the wii u? and is it enough to have it on the sd card to get the doscount or do i need to have it on the wii memory of my wii u?

it feels like its not really clear or its just me being dumb!!

Excellent can't wait to finish work tonight to download super mario world)

Has anybody paid for the wii u panorama view app I wont pay for a tech demo unless it lets me see into my neighbours bedroom windows erm I mean surrounding areas

[EvilBoris]

you have to pay for the app and then pay for each tour. Sounds like a ripoff to me

I don't like the word "PAY"
The demo looks good and I would browse through them but it should be free imo
