It has come to my attention that certain people have been receiving error code 160-0103 on Super Smash Bros Wii U. This particular error seems to come about when users decide to quit an online match. The error code appears and says there’s a problem with system memory. Users have tried to discover what’s wrong with the system memory and have gone about deleting game data, but this makes no difference. Some people have already said that they may need to format their Wii U or send it to Nintendo customer for repair. However, it does seem as though this could be fixed with a simple game update.
“I was playing For Glory mode yesterday morning then I was in a mode with a horrible amount of lag (I’m talking 2fps here) So, I did the unthinkable and quit the match. I tried to enter another match and it says “wait 10 minutes”, so I got offline and started playing challenge mode. I turn the game off for about 6 hours.”
“I turn the game on, I go through all the menus fine. I start a local Multiplayer match make to screen selection and BAM! I’m hit with this error code it say there is a problem with the system memory.
So, I try some other games and they work fine. Then I try deleting my Smash Bros.’s data. The save data and Shared data are erased easily, but with I try deleting the Update Data I get a similar error about system memory.”
“This location in my Wii U memory has problem reading the update data. So I know that the next option is to either format my Wii U or send it in for repairs neither is an optimal solution.”
Thanks, Enjoi05 and Ivan
Hahaha what a terrible console.
Even it’s true. It’s best for Nintendo, so they can improve and stop living in the past.
Your mom sucks HAHA
Avenue Q :D
Think that was confirmed since launch
like this gen so far, in general
Ok, why are you here then? If you think the console was terrible since launch, there’s no reason for you to be around here, unless you actually like the console.
I like the COMPANY. I have hope that they can pull their shit together and actually do well
Ok, I can understand and respect your opinion. Still, I would disagree, because in my opinion, the Wii U has many good games now, and call me easy to please perhaps, but I found the gamepad innovative even with Nintendo Land.
“I like the company” my ass. lol
He is talking about the error code has been there since launch
Please. I’m plagued weekly with game breaking crashes on the PS4. Look up error CE-34878-0.
Step 1: Close the application, install the latest system software and game update, and restart the system.
Step 2: If a PS Camera is connected to the system, remove it and reboot the system, then go to [Settings] > [User] > [Login Settings] and turn “Enable Face Recognition” OFF.
Step 3: If you have upgraded the Hard Disk Drive (HDD) in your console, please re-install the original HDD.
Step 4: If the error occurs again, back up your saved data, and then go to [Settings] > [Initialization] and choose [Initialize PS4].
Step 5: If the error continues and occurs with every application, or as soon as the application starts, please contact PlayStation Support.
Yea none of those are a permanent solution. I’ve had to have my PS4 replaced twice because that error eventually bricks the system.
Haven’t had to have my Wii U replace at all.
Step 4: If the error occurs again, back up your saved data, and then go to [Settings] > [Initialization] and choose [Initialize PS4].
That sucks. My PS4 has worked perfectly since day one. Same with my Wii U.
Yes. Xbox One. We all know that. lol
I was going to say what a solid move from Nintendo. This will stop people from rage quitting!
lmao Awesome joke!
And how is a “game” update determine a hardware’s failure? This shit happens all the time on PC so what’s the difference? Bad software can damage other software and hardware, no matter how good or bad you fool.
Says the idiot on this website
this glitch NEEDS to be fixed.
Iwata… you have been marked as the wild beast of prophetic relics.. You will be dismantled into a shell of your former self though one may argue you are already a shell of ones self. Ravaged by illness this Nintendo messiah, the leper king if you will, has brought to ruin what was once a land flowing with milk and honey. Beautiful it once was to the eyes of all. Now Nintendo has been brought to wasteland of casual nonsense and the holy ghost of what was once third party support. Sasori urges you you to repend of your sins for the Federations sake. You may therefore partake in the generous offering of Selina Ruiz…
You forgot “Church of Sasori” in the end…
Epic fail…
He doesn’t say Church of Sasori in the end. He says “amen”.
CinemaSins: Still counts as a sin. 1+
Just don’t quit an online match and you’ll be fine…
It’s has to be fixed regardless if this is a problem for the future.
Correct. This would trigger even if people lose connection with the host/server.
Really???? That simple huh? Trolling is old.
I did the same thing (quit due to horrible lag) and didn’t get an error… Though having to wait ten minutes sucks ass
And this proves that the online isn’t almighty like how some fanboys think it is. They say “online isn’t broken”, “there is no lag” blah blah. There is lag for many people out there. Just like how there is lag on the 3ds, on a sony console and a microsoft console.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQQCd9Hsb0U
non fanboy opinion
Lag in fighting games is very common, in other games they tend to have servers that find people and try to host the event online. smash all depends on all people’s connection, the 3ds does not have great online with some games, the wii u tends to have strong connection with the internet as do most online consoles
Smash is known for its lag Brawl had really bad lag so of course Smash 4 will hae the same lag :P
Smash 4 has improved online compare to both Brawl and 3DS combined. But still has lag issues. Just not as bad as before.
Nintendo Network being free kind of exposes your point.
It’s pointess to play it online. The Nintendo Network is fucking awful. Nintendo has no clue what they are doing when it comes to online gaming.
at leats im not paying like some people coughcoughMICROSOFTcoughcough or getting hacked for my credit card info almost every two months sony
The first, last, and only time that we’ve happened was in the Great Hack of 2009.
Trust me, anything and everything can be hacked, if the hackers care enough about a specific something
Even I never said it was the best. It’s basic. That’s all there is to it. But thank god it’s not as vulnerable and broken as PSN. $50 a year for that BS? lol
You wouldn’t understand how much better the service us unless you actually had it. Get over it.
PSN? Oh I know about it very perfectly..back in 2011 when it suffered a terrible hack attack because Sony had to be so fucking stupid to not update its security and firewall since its introduction…in 2007…
Yeah I got two free games for the trouble but still hasn’t washed away that nasty memory and history is repeating itself again on PS4 but this time you waste $50 for another 1-2 month PSN shut down to happen.
Seriously! And I bet people damage control that as well.
Don’t quit online matches until a solution has been found. Just wait it out or throw yourself out of the arena to end the match sooner.
Throwing yourself out gives you a ban… (or can). I understand the lag problem, but I think it’s best to play out that match and drop the opponent for a new one.
if you don’t get hit its self-destruct, just hit a few times and try to recover but fall
People have to realize that nintendo basically has you locked like if they’re your parents. Not only with smash and there rules online but also on miiverse. They have so many things that aren’t fixed that could potentially make you lose everything you worked hard for with a game and even the system. It’s crazy.
Yeah, is like Nintendo is Nazi of gaming world.
All company have there guidelines, even sony and micro. Not going to lie wish Nintendo would make account system. Miiverse isn’t a big deal with its rules people say stupid things. Right now smash is only game that’s affected by this a patch will come to fix the error
Really? Cause people have been banned from Miiverse for saying PS, not PlayStation, just PS.
Was it me? >:)
You were one of them I believe, at least the real shuhei.
That was BS though.
I got banned once for saying project m and the reason was because it was “criminal activity”………. Like come on
That’s actually hilarious
Only the civilian garbage will be affected as they are the weak within the empire that cnanot fight to the end…
*cannot…
did this happen on a white wiiU?
I never experienced any problem of this kind when quiting an online match. The only problem is that you have to wait 10 minutes before playing online again. This may have something to do with either a specific game update or a specific console update
All dem fanboys bashing AC Unity lol
its not just Nintendo fans its crap tons of people sony, Nintendo, pc, and micro, the game was complete glitched up crap
It’s just a joke :p
just like unity
Preeeeeeetty much
after rayman I pretty much didn’t much follow ubisoft any more, and after crap like unity, watch dogs, and the crew( which I;m pretty sure is not going to be any good) I don’t buy into them anymore. Bloodborn, 1886, MKX, scalebound, spaltoon, ect will keep me happy
Far Cry 4 was amazing though, and I’m still pretty excited for The Crew. Shows that they have the talent in there
So many t’s in that sentence…
Your “jokes” feel more like you throwing stuff to the wall and seeing what sticks long enough to cause drama.
Makes me cri everytiem
One little glitch, the world is doomed…
Console bricking glitch, isn’t a little glitch.
So the world is doomed then.
Not doomed, but very incovinient. At least Nintendo fixes these problems.
Yes, in the UK, US, Canada and Japan, anyone outside these countries with a brick is left to their own devices.
And when it happens to Nintendo, the world fucking explodes. When it happened to Halo, Batman, AC, Call of Duty, Destiny and few others, oh everyone stays quiet and says it’s okay because…reasons.
To be honest I don’t think that’s true, all of those games saw variable degrees of backlash.
And yet, millions upon millions of retards still buy those pieces of unfinished and scamming crap.
A, they have all been fixed.
B, people weren’t quiet about it.
C, Those bugs didn’t kill your $200+ console.
Keep trying, kid.
A. No shit because Nintendo is quick to fix issues unlike Sony letting a firewall-less PSN get hack raped in the ass multiple times
B. Again, no shit.
C. Of course it didn’t but the PSN hacks surely killed your personal information off to those jackasses to use for identity theft and frauds…
Keep trying loser. PSN sucks in security and should’ve stayed free for that matter. $50 for another server shut down..my ass.
This is nothing like AC which is worse. It’s plagued on launch day while Smash Bros. got a glitch from an update. Hell, Arkham Origins is a lot worse. Not only the problem was never fixed on time but WB decided to do the DLC first, exposing their greedy priorities.
Two wrongs don’t make a right.
I’m not even coming close to excusing Nintendo’s bricking. This is serious and if it happens to me, I’m gonna be so pissed.
so why is 1 major glitch with nintendo all any1 talks about and yet the millions of glitches with sony and 3rd party companies pass by is it cuz those are the ones expected so people accept that sony and 3rd parties produce low quality software so its ok? resident evil revelations bricked my brother’s ps3. the last of us destroyed my ps3 hard drive i had to replace it to fix my system. why dont any1 mention those glitches? i for 1 accept that glitches are just part of gaming why does nintendo have to be perfect when others are far from perfect they will fix the problem soon. i will still remain a fan and customer people blow things out of proportion its pathetic at times guess im just forgiving of mistakes they happen.
Well because this is a nintendo news site…….
well i get that bust still seems more like troll bait to fuel the flames of the pathetic console wars. personally i think nintendo is allowed to make mistakes like any1 else and people are blowing this out of proportion its very few that have even experienced the glitch u could count them on your fingers.
Well everyone has to realize that every game company isn’t perfect. All companies has done things wrong and are still doing things wrong (some more than others). Ubisoft is doing many things wrong along with EA, activision etc. Nintendo has it’s flaws same with sony and microsoft. Click bait or not it’s still a problem with Nintendo just like how other sites are reporting the Unity issue. Just like how in a few hours ign with cover these stories… Maybe one than the other. It’s just that game companies do wrong things. They think they’re doing something right yet they aren’t. You can defend them and say this is a click bait but if it doesnt get noted and a new person figures it out and tries to look online for the potential answer, he won’t be able to see that others have experienced the same issue. Thus bringing him to be upset with nintendo and potentially giving up and selling the wii u for another console. Finding flaws in companies to me is a plus because it can show what you’re dealing with ahead of time before picking up their product.
i do agree i accept that no company is perfect every1 has flaws. but i accept them and still like them i grew upto nintendo and still enjoy curling up to a good zelda game. the difference between a fan and a fanboy is that a fan will point out and accept the flaws of a company and move on and not dwell on them where as a fanboy will will defend all the flaws and glitches to the bitter end and try to come up with excuses to explain them. personally if a game is good i dont care what system its for i will play it and enjoy it. i still enjoy nintendo’s games to this day and im in my 30’s. i dont need bloody gun shooting games to feel adult give me a fun difficult platformer any day like tropical freeze and im happy with it
I applaud you, sir. You are a true gamer.
And fools like you love to feed on BS negativity to typically look smart in the Internet.
” the last of us destroyed my ps3 hard drive i had to replace it to fix my system”
What the fuck?? Bloater infected your system?
i have no idea what cuased it but i kept getting some error code and no games would boot up so i called sony and they said it sounded like corrupted firmware and i said but i havnt updated firmware for like 3 months the only thing i updated was the last of us then thats when the issue happened. so they told me step by step how to replace the hard drive and it did fix the problem but i sold the last of us after i wasnt risking a repeat performance.
That’s because the Wiitarded whiteknights shits talk the unfinished/broken/glitchfested games that everyone else releases but hold Nintendo on a pedestal because they supposedly release Finish/Complete/glitch less games.
Blame our community for that.
The glitch is in the system genius, not the game. The game is completely polished, like every Nintendo game.
Look up “smash bros 3ds bugs”
It might be in the console but the software is what activates it. I’ve never gotten error codes for quiting Mario Kart, why smash? Plus the 3DS smash, as shuhei mention also has bugs.
Two wrongs don’t make a right.
Yup. Noticed when PS4 was bricked upon arrival that negative news lasted 2 days. Yet if the Wii U bricked at launched it would had lasted months. Sony can get away with bricks and gliched system. The media will make excuses for them.
Fuck! I almost ended a online for glory match yesterday. It’s a good thing that I didn’t.
Problem with system memory is likely talking about what’s in the RAM at the point in time, not storage memory like the SSD or HDD so deleting data from the system is probably a waste of time
well i wont be touching for fun/for glory anymore. am not risking losing my wii u.
your brother’s wii u.
-Church of Sasori
hypocrite
Ignoring 5 hours, 27min and 19seconds ago you said Smash Wii u was boring.
He never said that??
Yes he did on a previous article SCKr brought up. He was getting his ass whipped. Then later he said smash was boring. That was about 12 hours 35min and 17 seconds ago.
That was a poser…
Lol this is nothing new to me. I’ve been seeing that system memory error for like 3 months. My Wii U has so many issues. It’s definitely in need of a repair. :P
Seriously though, Nintendo needs to fix that. That’s a very bad thing to run into…
I never quit matches no matter how laggy they are, because I know it will bite me in the butt later.
There should be an option to report laggy matches, so you can quit matches, but keep your record clean.
all he has to do is back up his save files and reformat his system. as long as he registered his system…he should be good. if not, he needs to register is system. i love how people are using this opportunity to talk shit about the wii u, funny because this is a RARE occurrence. But with other systems, shit is a common occurrence, especially if your system has a hdd in it.
You can’t back up save files from Wii U unless you’re going to shell out big bucks for an external hard drive, the Wii U doesn’t allow you to save data on SD cards or regular USB drives.
That’s actually my external harddrive….. A usb… And it been in the back of my system saving my games for the past yr or 2
“Big bucks for an external hard drive”…..hardly. A 1TB external hard drive goes for the price of a brand new game.
You can get external hard drives for like $50. Its old tech and they keep getting cheaper. SSDs are what’s expensive these days.
Ultimate rage quit punishment!
America has shitty internet. There’s the lag problem. Capitalism at it finest. I’ve played SSB Wii U nonstop for about two weeks and not one problem. I am always skeptical of shit like this being a hit piece to shit on Nintendo. A couple glitched games and the sky is falling.
*facepalm*
If Ubisoft or EA have glitches its alright. Let it be Nintendo then its another story that will last for months.
Yeah like how people were talking about AC Unity and BF4 for so long?
Talking about Unity for a long time? So if the talk is soooooo bad why did it still sell knowing it was broken?
How would I know…
Had a friend that got this error while INSTALLING the update. Took him 4-5 tries to get the game updated.
LMFAO Nintendo are the biggest joke of all time!This just proves that Smash was RUSHED just like every other Wii U first party game!
Wii U is dead,Zelda,X,Star Fox will NOT save the Gimmick U so why are Nintendo still making games for it?
Nintendo was here before shitstation and cockbox and will be here after. Cockbox can’t give there shit away. Shitstation has nothing but remakes and overrated graphics. Little Big Planet 3 graphics are a joke! Nintendo and PC for real gamers.
http://www.nowgamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/3747212.jpg
Uh huh, real overrated
It is very overrated.
Opinion
Wow suddenly Nintendo fans become graphics whores after talking shit about PS/Xbox’s power for so long. So hypocritical
The graphics of ps4/xbone is overrated in general not in comparison to nintendo. I could give a fuck about graphics. I own a Wii U and PC.
Steam username
LBP 3 has better graphics than crappy New Super Rehash Bros U hahahahhahahahh….

Hahahaah “a joke”
It is a joke. Shit sucks.
Look, the LBP 3 has a style of its own, imo it’s already reached its maximum graphics. What more do you want?
Rushed? But won’t say nothing about broken unity.
Xbox Live was hacked hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah shitty company ms isnt video games just trash
HahahahHahahahahahahahahahah
Ahhahahahahahahahahahah
Hahahahahah. Hahah hahaha
Hahajaja hahah hhh hh aa hahahahah
Also red ring of death. Lol xbox!
What a surprise, Sakurai’s lazy games are full of game- and conosle-breaking bugs and glitches.
Getting all of these confirmations of what I’ve been telling you people and that you all got so bitchy over is so delicious, I can’t help but gloat on the fact that I saw this shit coming from a mile.
Never lagged in smash so far , surprisingly
I got the same error when trying to start the game, so I can’t even play. I can delete my save and the update, but not the game.
System up to date.
I wrote Nintendo, three days ago, no answer yet.
Hhahahahah what happened to all Nintendo games being perfect ?
Do a barrel roll is a world wide famous saying.
I hardly play online mode. This was done on purpose to punish the MLG buffoons lol.
I remember early this year, my Wii U would act up on me.
Whenever I tried to turn on the power, the red light would consistently flash without turning blue. The problem made me do everything in my power to fix it outside of striking my console or sending it to repairs. It would occur about 33% of the time, and no AC Adapter change, reset, or internal battery switch would change anything.
And then after a system update, the problem COMPLETELY disappeared.
Luckily for me, I didn’t ship it out to Nintendo to get it repaired. My guess is that my Wii U simply had some sort of software instability, something that a future update most likely cleans up.
so, i didn’t get the error code yet. should i stop playing the game until a new update comes up?
You better patch this quick Nintendo. I’m almost done completing the game and if this glitch does anything to my data or system, I’m gonna be pissed.
My Wii U has already frozen twice, once in Lego City Undercover while I was scaling the red bridge for a challenge and once in The Wonderful 101 when I was fighting the final boss.
Reblogged this on JustACityKid.
I’m getting tired of this gen everything is so fucked. Next year we had better have finished games from both First and Third party developers because this is getting ridiculous, everything is rush and unfinished, I am done pre-ordering games I’ll just buy these games at launch my god.
I rarely get horrible lag when playing online. Maybe 3 really bad games since it released. Other then that its been a rompin stompin good time for me!
hey heres an easy fix DONT PLAY ONLINE TILL ITS FIXED plus for all you guys saying nintendo online sucks WELL AT LEAST ITS FREE AND AT LEAST OUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION ISNT CONSTANTLY BEING STOLEN has happened to microsoft and sony respectively so at least nintendo is proven safe all THANKS TO THE EXTRA STEP OF THE NINTENDO NETWORK ID
Constantly being stolen? Are you stupid or something?
http://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/2o2ems/error_1600103_its_not_smash/
It’s already confirmed that SM4SH is not causing the issue since other games have caused it as well. It’s been dated since November 2012 that this error has existed. It just happened to really REALLY few people.
Grow up, just like Xbox and PS, Nintendo also has a few faulty consoles in between the 7 million+ it has sold so far since launch. It wasn’t acknowledged until literally yesterday because everyone wants SM4SH to fail so badly when it’s not even it’s fault. Nintendo has to address this formally yes I agree and I hope it gets resolved. But we don’t know how many people are experiencing it truthfully. So don’t point fingers at the game because most people who own this game have been playing it without issues.
I never even went online and I got this :/
Ooh…

It’s really weird. It only seems to happen when the Nintendo slaps that 10 minute ban on you for quitting online matches. Like whatever system is in place seems to be the problem.
