You know that next-gen game you've always wanted? The one everyone's been talking about? Yes, that one.
Friend's dad's cousin's uncle confirmed that it's coming installed on this update.

The OP should add the release notes to the first post for when its finally updated.

http://www.nintendo.com/wiiu/system-update/

It hasn't been updated as it still at 3.1.0U:

"Available Now:
New features and improved performance for your Wii U console

Unlock the next level of potential for your Wii U™ experience with system update 3.1.0 U, available now. Features include:

Improvements to standby functions: The standby functions will now regularly connect to the Internet when the Wii U console is powered down to check for available SpotPass data or software and system updates. Software updates will be installed while the Wii U console is powered down, and system updates will be installed the next time the Wii U console is powered on.

Improvements to system stability and usability: Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience."

Thanks for reminding me. That hopefully means that the update will already be downloaded by the time I get home.

YOU BETTER NOT BE LYING ABOUT FOLDERS

FOLDERS ARE SERIOUS BUSINESS MAN

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

 

[Vidal]

Software downloaded from the Nintendo eShop will include released updates and will no longer need to be updated after installation

SONY, I'M LOOKING AT YOU

 

[ratcliffja]

What about the GameCube backwards compat and upscaling?

Also Wii Y forwards compatibility.

 

[Fandangox]

I'm scared that it's not a big deal because they haven't said ANYTHING about it.



Why would they do that? Lol, that doesn't make sense. The maintenance, if anything, would have been to prepare for the update.

Yeah I have no idea of these stuff works, but just throwing out uneducated guesses.

 

[Riki]

This was added months ago to the WiiU.

 

[Soren01]

Unleash the power!!!

Nintendo fans are crazy. I hope this firmware update that you are all freaking out over lives up to your hype levels.

So no youtube fix?

Not even worth turning the system on

 

[chronosic]

Damnnnn, dont get off work for another 3 hours.

 

[DidntKnowJack]

The updating while in standby is awesome, but really this is mostly a stability update. Still, I'm happy they're improving some of this stuff.

[Jrs3000]

So I turned on my wii u and it asked me to verify my account password and now accept a nintendo network service agreement. Anyone else get this?

 

[ShadowElliot]

Aaaaaaaaand... Done.

No GBA/GC VC? *sob*

you have a $350 youtube machine?

 

[Sandfox]

Nintendo fans are crazy. I hope this firmware update that you are all freaking out over lives up to your hype levels.

GAF crashes over the most ridiculous of announcements at times so its not that crazy.

Yep, which is sad since those things are minimal expectations for consoles.

What about 4K? Did they add 4K???

 

[Nostremitus]

Started the update, 33 minutes... Not bad.

648mb seems pretty big for a update tbh

Dude, don't do that.

 

[Zoramon089]

Good thing the WiiU can download and install updates even when you're not there

 

[DogMeat77]

Who needs games when you have firmware updates? Downloading now... Firmware of the year edition.

 

[Krakn3Dfx]

The last 3 times I've turned on the Wii U has been for system updates. *headshake*

 

[Kajigger]

MY SYSTEM'S SO STABLE!!!!!

*Punches hole in wall*

 

[MoogleWizard]

This update is going too fast, it can't be the big one. It must just be preparing all the little Pikmin inside Wii Us for tomorrow when they will have to rearrange all the innards!

 

[moolamb]

I'm so happy to be a part of this hyper berserk Wii U cult-club! Who cares about games, UPDATES ARE THE SHIT.

 

[zink120]

Yep, click on your mii, enter your password and accept the new service agreement. Then download the update!
