Nintendo Wii U Receives First Firmware Update In Over A Year

4.2
It looks like the Nintendo Switch has surpassed the Wii U in just about every way possible, and it has been a while since there’s been any notable releases on the Wii U. Well, there’s something to new to report about now, and it is that a new firmware update has been released for the platform.

This new update brings the version to 5.5.3, and brings improvements to the system’s stability, along with some minor changes to improve users’ experience. Granted, this is not saying much, and it’s likely that these changes aren’t very noticeable. After all, improvements to system stability is pretty much what all such updates usually say, unless they’re a major, major update, which the Wii U probably won’t receive anymore.

Still, it’s worth noting simply because this is the first update that has been released for the platform in over a year. It’s also of interest because there are no new games being released for the platform. Oh well, some extra stability never hurt anyone, so thanks Nintendo!

Surprised they are still updating this with how popular the Switch is. I'm sure this will be one of the last firmware updates it gets or the last if anything.

Craig Think it's about time they let this die out, and let the Switch take it's place properly.


damn right, none of their products now will overtake the Switch that shit is amazing


I'm sure whenever they end up releasing a new console it will blow our minds yet again. Nintendo really is and always will be the goat

Probably will be one of the last. For sure won't happen again for at least another year if it's not the last.

Completely agree they weren't much of a hit in the day never mind now
