Wii U owners 'can move data between USB drives' with new update

4.5
Nintendo has provided new details of its first major update to the Wii U operating system, scheduled for roll-out in late April.

Central to the update will be new options to "switch data between two USB drives", according to company president Satoru Iwata.
The long-awaited Wii U spring system update will also reduce loading times, quite significantly in certain respects. A recent video from Nintendo demonstrated that the update could, for example, reduce the loading time between game and operating system by more than half.

Azare Wii U is not worth the buy, nothing seems interesting about it.


The only thing that made the Wii disiriable, was Wii Sports.

Solve They are just doing everything they can do to get more sales.


I don't blame them, they need to make some money back from all the sales they didn't make


Yeah, wish the wii u was a lot better or they made another controller console to play more zelda and such on :/

The people who play the Wii U are either to young or to old to play these games that could be modded

Not sure how useful the USB thing is for me, but I can't wait for the spring update. Loading screens are horrible, even on apps such as Netflix, it takes forever.

You seem to be confused. This has nothing to do with sales, they're just updating what's there. The sales aren't godly for the WiiU, but they aren't terrible either.
