Yeah I bought it too and I really like it. Also the Wii U tablet with the invisishell fits perfectly in the Wii U charging cradle if anybody is wondering

Wiiu remote plus is the same as regular remote plus?

I believe so.

Hopefully, it actually updates tonight.

My tracking updated this morning, however I only have one tracking number. Mine is currently in shipment and has a delivery date of tomorrow. This was with the standard shipping.

Yeah, it's just different packaging.

And you might not. It's all dependent on the tv it's plugged into. Some people's TVs just happen to do a crappy job with analog component signals. If you don't notice a difference, you probably always wondered why people complained about their Wii's looking super blurry and the colors not being super bright. Additionally, depending on the size of your tv and the distance you sit, you may have never noticed the blurring pixels that plagued others with the Wii.

To explain, this:



and this:



are identical.

It looks like your Nintendo ID is tied to the system it's created on and currently there's no way to use it on another Wii U system.

Edit: It looks like Nintendo's stance on this will eventually change according to this article.

Broken link, but yep, that sucks. I hope they change that.

Fixed, thanks.

Are saves tied to your account? If so would that mean you couldn't even transfer your saves, either?

The glasses used for 3D all depends on your tv/monitor. I think he was questioning the statement of 3D being on the gamepad. I don't think the gamepad can display 3D right now, I think that was just a rumor.

I think you might not really know what you are talking about.

Walmart has white Wii-U bundles (unit + game, no controller) online again.

Thank you mods for cleaning up the thread. Especially that QQ guy's post. Welcome to 2006, Mr. "QQ".

Got my system yesterday at Target, but didn't know if I wanted to open it (YES I DID!) or wait (NO I DID NOT!) .. totally forgot I'd have to wait 48 hours to download a damn update, or else I would have set it to download overnight. Why don't things just work out of the box anymore? I mean I know I could just play without the update, but this is more of a general statement than one towards the Wii U.

I think the ones with Wii packaging has the sync button under the battery cover. You don't need to remove the battery cover to access the sync button for the ones with Wii U packaging.

How accurate is Walmart.com's inventory tracker. According to my zip code, 10 area stores have both units in stock?

Wow. My system is funky and I was going to exchange it but I don't want to lose my ID. I hope Nintendo makes the necessary change ASAP. Guess I will hold on my system as long as I can.

Are you still having problems with the system locking up?
