We’ve just got a new Wii U system update and it’s available to download now. Additional functionality includes support for Amiibo in System Settings. You probably guessed it, but there’s also improvements to system stability and other minor adjustments. Here’s the official patch notes courtesy of Nintendo of America.
Changes to System Settings:
amiibo Settings has been added to System Settings. amiibo Settings allows users to register an amiibo owner and nickname, delete data written to an amiibo by supported software, or reset an amiibo
Improvements to system stability and usability:
Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience
first
Finally I can use my amiibo in action!
And no GameCube controller support for the Wii mode.
Lame :/
Expecting a two generation old controller to work in this generation is too much, I think. It will work on ssmb though
Você só reclama
So is Sony’s Dual Shock controller, which is the EXACT SAME DAMN THING through FOUR generations!!
Having controller diversity is the best feature.
It will help a lot complaining in a nintendo news site
Estranho falarem que eu só reclamo, em outro site falam que eu sou fanboy demais :v Vou entrar em crise de identidade assim.
Wii Mode never had any VC GameCube support and the GameCube optical disc function is taken out with Wii Optical Disc in its place. I just hope Nintendo will surprise us with the sudden GameCube VC launch along with N64 very soon.
I could play the VC games on my Wii with the Game Cube controller. Why can’t I do the same in Wii U’s Wii mode?
And TBH, I prefer much more the Wii U getting support to the GameCube discs (since it already supports Wii discs) than a proper said GameCube VC, I have my discs right here, I intend to buy more GCN games, and I don’t want to depend of my old Wii to play these games.
Only N64 and SNES you can play with that controller. And dummy, how would you know if it works or not when the adapter to make it work on Wii U via USB is not available yet? lol
Lets not forget game boy advance support.
Thats not confirmed for GBA either.
Will the Gamecube controller work on Wii VC if you brought the plug for the Wiimote? If it does that may be the better deal. And with wavebird just set the Wiimote where ever you want it.
It works with some NES and Genesis games too. I tested.
Genesis I get because it has more buttons but not NES.
Why can’t they bring N64 tittles to the Wii U VC? That can’t be hard to do. It also would be nice if Pro controller could work the Wii VC. But you know it’s what Reggie said, to focus on new games. So it’s not too bad I can still play N64 tittles. But it would be nice if it was all under one OS. If only Gamecube disk wasn’t small..damn.
Wait second. Can Nintendo just redesign the Gamepad to take in Gamecube tittles. Like a slot for the Gamecube Disk in the future. It’s tiny enough. Sure it would be expensive but it would be slick. You could take your gamepad to wherver you want with a Gamecube slot. That idea would be epic. Nintendo should sell Gamepads with Gamecube slots. And it wouldnt affect 3Ds sales.
You’re lame you hater
Not cool man…
Sweet. Looking forward to my Wii Fit Trainer Amiibo.
very good, dk here i come!
Finally, someone gets it!
Aww don’t worry I’m getting one too :P
Sweet. Gonna do the update now……….
Sadly I don’t have Wii U -_-
At least I have a 3DS and in a few weeks will have Ocarina of Time. I wish I could work to have money ‘-‘
Just finish school, study a profession, and get yourself a good job. That way you won’t have to worry about money when it comes to enjoying gaming.
That’s the spirit, way to stay optimistic there anonymous. Who knows maybe you’ll get a wii u for Christmas and be enjoying what it has to offer with the rest of us!
By the way I am not the anonymous who talk about the Wii Fit Trainer amiibo.
Amiibo suck, 6-7$ is the right price
look here http://i.imgur. com/fhhA1dp.jpg
bad link. and you do realize amibo has hardware within itself. your basically paying for a usb stick, the figure being free,
looks like sicker blocked links to img, just fill the space…
Look here, she is right, those “usb sticks” are overpriced

Soory, WRONG LINK, click here, don’t believe in Nintendo’s photos, amiibo are not so good as you believe

Damn THIS SITE SUCKS!! don’t click the link, copy the entire link then paste it into a new page. Damned sickr and his stupid rules -.-
honestly, i dont care.
Amiibos aint the only ones charging so damn much.
I wonder if Zelda Majora’s Mask will have an amiibo feature.
cool, i still have to update regardless
What comedian did u take that joke from???
Finally! This update took like 20+ minutes. And I can’t even tell any difference again.
Well presumably it’s all the amiibo stuff that takes the space
11 more days for hulk smash! Uhhh I mean smash bros on the U!!!
Actually ten days! even more exciting! Can’t wait to be pac-man it would have been cool though if they could’ve made mrs. pacman as an alternate skin, you know kinda like robin and female robin.
Mrs. Pac-men was already used in a game, if they let more characters more than once breaking the rule like the Mario Kart 8 DLC tracks, then maybe but i dont know, this is smash bros, not mario kart, but maybe the rule will break in smash bros 5
Ms. Pac-man is a possible character for Smash Bros. 5 but only Time will tell.
Ms. Pac-Man should have been one of Pac-Man’s alternate costumes.
yes shulk, now im really feeling it.
