Wii U gets a minor firmware update

4.7
Nintendo has released another firmware update for the Wii U covering improvements to stability and usability.


The latest update now allows the Wii U to connect to the Nintendo Network while in standby mode, in order to download SpotPass data, system and software updates.

Software updates will install while the Wii U is off, but system updates will complete installation when the console is switched on.

The patch notes point to another update to the system that is expected sometime between late September and early October. This update is said to be larger, with plans to further increase the speed of the system, while adding new features. Details of these new features remain unknown at this time.

Gossip Who still plays Wii U?


No one. They need to give up .


They really do or they just need to start reviving old franchises.


Exactly, either come up with some actual good new ideas or bring back the classics.


I've stopped enjoying all Nintendo franchises since the release of the Wii, the motion control destroyed everything.


I wasn't a fan of the motion controls are either. I mostly played GameCube games on the Wii so I was mostly using the GameCube controller.


ya only good game on the wii was mario kart


Super Smash Bros Brawl was also a pretty good game, but I never used the Wii remote to play, always used the GameCube controller because I was more used to it from SSBM.


My favourite game for the original wii was Guitar Hero III World Tour.

A new Metroid, Star Fox and Zelda game wouldn't be that bad(I know Zelda and Metroid have had new games but I'm just throwing ideas out there.) I would love to see a Super Metroid remake on the Wii U, completely redone with the graphics and everything. I searched this up and they might be considering reviving older franchises.

It's better than nothing I guess. As long as it doesn't glitch or mess the console up in anyway it shouldn't be a bad thing.
