Nintendo today released a system update for the Wii U. Once you update your console, Nintendo says further improvements to its overall system stability will have been made. Nintendo made it clear that this update, which updates the system to version 2.1.3 U, is not the system update that Nintendo previously announced in a Nintendo Direct, as that one is scheduled to arrive in April and is supposed to add new features and further improvements to the user experience.
neat
You really wanted the first comment, didn’t you?
do i look 5 years old to you
I don’t mean to get involved but… When you don’t capitalize your I’s you kinda do… Sorry…
didn’t realize we lived in a world where capitalization is a sign of maturity
@sosukebzr ^This so much.
life’s too short to capitalize letters.
Lmao… Great!!

“look” might not be the word of choice for an Internet conversation….

That’s not annoying at all…
You’re not even trying dude
hi
Can I get a link for what this update has in it. Thank you.
I’ll do it tomorrow or later in the night when everyone else isn’t doing it
Just to let everyone know, the update is 30MB
It took 5 mins for me. I don’t know what the file size was.
30 mb, just did it 2 hrs from the time i posted this
Hopefully one of these days they’ll release an update that fixes its wi-fi range… which is piss poor. Every one of my gadgets has a perfect internet connection in my living room… except my Wii U. I have to place the damn thing a couple of metres beside the router for the wi-fi to work -__-
LOL What an awful console xD
That’s an opinion.
Go fuck yourself. *IMO
Not really. There are always some devices that have issues that aren’t noticed in manufacturing. Mine is probably farther from the router than that and it’s fine. *shrug*
I bet you don’t own one…
I bet you don’t own 1…..
And the Xbox and Playstation were so perfect aren’t they?
atleast wii u has wi-fi built in. for the 360 you had to pay extra. about 70 euros. thats pretty much for a fucking wlan-adapter
I agree, the old 360 you had to pay for a wireless adapter, not true in the new 360. The Wii U is the complete opposite….you have to pay for an adapter if you want wired lan. Same went for the wii. Bottom line…Xbox messed it up at first but corrected its mistake. Nintendo screwed it up on both the Wii and the Wii U..
Except you’ve missed out on one detail, Steve-o. Nintendo may have screwed up on the Wii U, but they’ve FIXED the situation. The Miiverse is one of the problem that was fixed. The long loading times when playing a physical disc game have been reduced slightly. Get your facts right ans straightened out!
A couple meters? That doesn’t sound normal. I think you should check it out. Mine connects and it’s about 12 meters away from the router.
Yeah I know, it’s got to do with the fact that there’s a wall between the router and my living room. It’s not a problem for any other gadget (even my original Wii has a connection), but it does seem to be a problem for the Wii U.
That’s strange, as there’s four walls between my Wii U and router. I think it may be a problem with your console.
OK, I’m started to get worried… and I live in Peru, so I’m not even sure where I should take it for a repair… :S
Call Nintendo in your part of the world.
Nintendo support in any other parts of America that is not USA and Canada? I do not think that thing actually exist
Don’t worry too much man, you’re not the only one. My Wii U had some wifi problems as well. Usually, whenever I pointed the back of the console in the exact direction of the router, it worked perfectly, but obviously doing that is tricky without stationing the console awkwardly. However, I actually found that it would only have these issues when my PC was on, which made sense because my PC uses a wifi adapter, and is stationed right in the path between my Wii U and router. So yeah, wireless interference. So whenever I use my Wii U, I make sure my PC isn’t turned on, and it works fine. So it may actually be wireless interference that’s causing the problem. Do you have any other wifi devices stationed near your Wii U, or in between it and the router, like a PS3 or 360, or a wifi computer? If so, just make sure it’s off. If you have a 360 or PS3 stationed next to it though, you may need to unplug them. It’s not just the Wii U that has wireless interference issues, issues like these are very common with pretty much every wifi enabled device. I found the same thing was happening to my smartphone when my PC was on, couldn’t get a signal worth a darn, even if the router was in the same room. But then my phone sucks. lol
just get a wii ethernet adapter and connect it directly to the router. wired is always faster than wireless no matter what device you’re using
Maybe the ones who import consoles / games in your country? That’s at least the case with Norway, although I do it via GameStop / the store I bought my console.
Also, there are certain materials that can disrupt WiFi signals, if it is of any relevance.
dns server 8.8.8.8 secondary 8.8.4.4
I don’t think there is. My Wii U has the same problem. Which is weird, cuz my wii connected fine. My Wii U has to be closer to the router however, or it won’t pick it up at all.
Or maybe it’s a problem with the range of your router, just saying. Because I had to buy a new router in order to play online my 3DS and WiiU. I got disconected a lot with my older router, and I even thought my consoles had wi-fi problems.
mine is about 30 metres from the wifi router on another floor entirely and it’s just fine.
Make sure you have an N router. My Wii U gets online no worries in the next room through a wall about 10m away.
Mine is on the opposite side of the house than the router, minus half a desk. It still works fine.
Well, the weird thing is that it DOES connect.. in a sense. I mean, the connection test is successful but when I try to play online, or maybe enter Miiverse or the e-shop I get an error message.
My Wii U does the same exact thing. When I go into the Wii mode I get Internet perfectly fine, but when I switch back to Wii U mode I get an error message when I try to use any software that requires Internet. Does anyone have any solutions?
Yes, solutions would be greatly appreciated!
call Nintendo’s customer support. they’re pretty great and helped me when i had connection problems.
Nintendo support in any other parts of America that is not USA and Canada? I do not think that thing actually exist
If not, go onto the Nintendo website and look up the error or make an inquiry yourself,
Yes it is call 18002553700 and tgey will tell you where to call or send your wii u for repair north america nintendo is in charge of centralamerica…yhablan es espanol tambien por si necesitas ayuda en espanol
I used to have the same problem. But moved the console (further away from the modem) and it works perfectly. Maybe there is something blocking it’s signal from its current location.
sounds like what was wrong with mine, turns out from where my wireless router was behind the computer monitor it interrupted the signal enough to cause connection problems for my wii u. so try to move it a little bit and see what happens
That may just be an issue with your router or Wii U, because my Wii U is on the other side of the house to my router, at least 10 metres away.
Very strange. My wii u is on par with other wifi hardware with really good range. I have no problems so far.
You maybe should consider that There are some compatible issues between ur console and router.. Dont know which router u own but cheap or old ones can behave odd. Try to update Its firmware
My router is on a different level and across the house. I have no issues. Maybe luck shit on your day.
Mine is 30ft away from router and through 3 walls it worjs great
Sounds like a router incombatability to me. I got wifi to work downstairs with my wii u.
Updated mine and it seemed like the menu load times were slightly faster… Maybe that was just wishful thinking and imagined though.
Well that certainly would be great. I would just like to know more details about this update beside the “overall stability” thing.
Inb4 sly cooper says someone is going to bite off my ochinko …..
What a fucking dick that guy is and all the other trolls for that matter. I’m a nice, reasonable guy . But I would probably shoot that guy and some of the other trolls if I had the chance.
FUCKING POW!!!!!!
Shut up! If he hears his name he’ll probably starting spamming that Sly 4 review again!
I know but my point remains. I litteraly would shoot the guy in the dick right now if I had the chance. And I wouldn’t hurt a fly.
Wait….. I’ve killed hundreds of flies!
*shoot the guy in the ochinko
Yeah in his ochinko :/
but if you’re a pussy you don’t have the balls to pull the damn trigger. pussy.
I would shoot you for him in that case. Fucking disgrace.
Like you.
but but your mama doesn’t say me like that D: she say me ohh my tiger :D
That’s what your mom said when I banged her hard that’s when you where born but you were the biggest mistake so I left you ugly ass skank of a mom sorry son but I hate you but don’t worry we can still be friends(not really) HAHAHA XD
What ? I just said I would shoot the guy. I didn’t say I would hesitate.
What part of ”FUCKING POW!!!!!” made you think I wouldn’t shoot this guy ?
man edward. calm down sometimes you really get annyoing rofl
Don’t ever call Nintedward a pussy.
The trolls I don’t mind. Sly Cooper on the other hand…
I know. Some of them are funny , the ones who don’t go overkill. Sly cooper is like Cancer that has managed to get access to the internet.
At least that idiot who spammed the centipedes seems to have gone away.
indeed. It hurts to my brain to even contemplate what goes through some of the spam trolls minds….
You don’t know how bad is to have a cancer, if you did you wouldn’t be talking about it openly like that just because the internet does.
I didn’t say I did know what it would be like to have cancer. I was simply saying that That guy is like Cancer that has learned how to type.
Believe me man, I hate people using cancer as an insult or talking about it openly just as much as you, but I do see what Nintedward is saying.
Yeah , thanks jellybean! I wasn’t wishing Cancer upon anyone. I was simply saying that had cancer actually learned how to type a comment , Sly cooper would be your answer.
hey , My grandad died of bowel cancer. Terrible stuff…..
Yeah, I’ve had a few go that way too :( But I do agree, Sly Cooper is sooooooo god damn annoying.
Bowel cancer… I didn’t know that existed. There’s cancer for everything these days :'( it sucks.
Yea, that thig really have made “improvements to the user experience”, now I can’t put the gamepad further than 30 inches away of the console without this lose the connectivity with the console.
WTF Nintendo.
Someone else have suffered of this problem?
I’m dying of nerves here, someone know what could create such a big interference between a console and a gamepad even when a gamepad is mere inches away?
My sympathy to you , but 30 inches from your consoles ? that’s like only 3 penis’s away in length… Something is wrong with your wiiu , My gamepad does about 40 penis’s….
I know and that wrong thing with my Wii U start right after I download that update.
wut?? 3?? 2 maybe?
or we using japanese units of measurement?
and I would like to swap gamepads with you, mine starts to have problems at about 25-30 penis’s , though it might be the walls, junction box and other wireless activity in between?
haha :)
at least 9 penisessses
Interesting… I performed the update and the gamepad still worked on my couch which is about 15 – 20 feet away. I have used it in other rooms about 30 – 40 feet away in the past.
Maybe try re-syncing it… Seems odd. I haven’t updated it yet though.
I try that, it look like it work.
It’s a good thing that the Big N is fixing the improvements of the U’s stability thanks to the firmware update. Next month’s improvement will be worth the wait also.
I hope to get the Wii U by my birthday on March 24th! :)
Get one sooner…
I get mine 4 days after you :P
What game will you get with it?
I’m looking at getting the special MH 3U bundle, but i’ll get Lego City with it as well.
sux a dick
What is sux?
I like to put things in my ass
…
Nintendo sucks big dicks
lol
i like rape
This “anonymous” is a friend of mine on Xbox lol. Im talking with him right now lol. He just wanted to troll cause he thinks its funny. He actually loves Nintendo like us.
not as big as the ones you chew on for hours
Ouch!! Lemme check if I’ve got any burn heals in stock.
The Wii U’s VC is coming in the April update, am I right?
No, the summer one. But I think that it is already here in a way.
http://www.change.org/petitions/namco-bandai-games-port-remake-naruto-shippuden-ultimate-ninja-storm-3-for-the-wii-u-2
Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 3… I hope the game is alot better than the title. Not that I care really.
Have you played the others? It’s actually a really cool game if you like Naruto… or 3D fighters.
I haven’t and I never wish to.
How do you get the Naruto DLC

Is anyone else having this issue: when you log onto the Wii U homepage and where MIiverse is, there should be a bunch of icons for games right? Batman, Mario, Scribblenauts, Nintendoland, etc. But for me it shoes generic NINTENDO miis talking about online, etc. I can’t get a fix.
The same thing is happening for me. I’m not sure what’s causing it but I don’t really mind anyway.
Yes I had that and Nintendo did not have a fix other than to delete your Mii and create a new one and associate it with your Nintendo ID. It was that way for a couple weeks and then it went back to normal without me doing anything.
I had that, but it went away on its own.
Having the Nintendo Mii’s in your plaza means you’re not connected to the internet. Restarting the Wii U might do the trick, or else you might wanna check out your internet settings
Great news arrives when you least expect it. With the arrival of Monster hunter 3 Ultimate, Lego city undercover and Néed for speed most wanted. Even Spiderman needs this update, the Wii U is shaking up remarkably and most singularly to were we knew it would be.
So what do they mean by “improves stability”? Anyone know?
The OS is now consistent; plus it stabilizes some rushed ports, i.e AC3. It’s good since we have some major games releasing this may.
Mine has always been consistent???????????
it wont fall over in the stand things
What does it do?
Does anyone else think that there should be a community in the Miiverse dedicated to technical support?
yes
That would actually be really helpful.
Still it is nice to have an update that will enhance the console until we get the better update in April.
Why didi the uses on the demos I have go down after the update, does anyone know what the update actually does?
Where is zen pinball 2, it was supposed to be released in NA in Feb and still no word? Anyone hear whats up with it?
I love my dick I suck it all the time
you forgot the attention u give mine and my dads
me too
Least they done an update anyway. Still got loads of time to improve and we got some pretty OK games this month so more things to look forward to :).
Eh… I guess that’s cool.
the update is nintendo telling wiiu its not next gen because some goofy fuk in the industry said so wiiu will return itself to the box and then the store and nintendo will send you a letter stating as wiiu aint next gen there all going to kill themselves on youtube in a mass japaneese sward fall on thing
and sony will return to glory all that DUALSHOCK 4 GLORY ltfol
Why are your comments so two-faced? One comment supports the wii u, or acknowledges is, then the next comment, THIS.
the big update is summer time
The jazz classic ?
they need to update the wii mode,i have to reset the setings to 720p everytime to get rid of the bars threw the screen, thats annoying
I don’t have this problem but I had to say your icon is fantastic.
its only when its set to 1080p on wii mode, maybe its beacuse im playing on a to big of a tv but when i set it to 720p it goes away, they need to fix that or just have wii mode be set on its own setting instead of me changing it everytime
I can’t help it… I hear about PETA, I remember the way they were shown in South Park… These guys always talk about things like they were the worse in the world… Geez…
PETA is so over-dramatic. Like, seriously speaking lol.
Sounds like a hax check to me. I think I saw a homebrew exploit somewhere, so yeah, I think it’s a hax check.
Here is little comparison: Power on to desktop and stopping game to desktop.
Wii u: 23.5sec 19.5sec
Ps3 : 27.9sec 16.3sec
X360: 29.5sec 14.7sec
amiga 1200 : 4.3sec 6,6sec
Maybe amiga is next gen?
