I can't wait for this update to come out! I also sure do love playing online games on Wii U and 3DS, it would be a shame if the servers shut down or something
Still odd how unoptimized the Wii U OS was during it's first 4 months. I remember it couldn't even install games in the background before the April 2013 update too. You had to stay in the Download Management app and wait for whatever you downloaded to install.
Very impressed with the new loading times. Launched Nintendo Land and it loaded in 5-7 seconds and returned to the Wii U menu in a mere 3 seconds. Simply glorious. Thank you Nintendo!!!
Wii U menu is way more charming than Switch’s menu. Switch menu needs a optional background music, and a Wii U theme withe those rounded borders for games icons.
The "please wait" message only occurs when a disc is in the drive, & especially noticeable on the "Injustice" game . Good to see that's getting fixed as well!
Since the game's load times are up to developers, I really hope they launch an update for their games, so the speed can stick to this update! It would be awesome!! :D
@@clothinghanger6978 oh damn really? I recently moved it into my room, but I haven’t played it much. I don’t have many games and idk much about modding either so-
This firmware also have Virtual Console, so i guess its online today when the store also is updated. This Firmware also have a few new technical features like fast boot to Wii, support for "copy to" more than one USB device etc. Rayman Challenge is also released today. A big day for Wii U owners.
Well, the Virtual Console service comes to the Wii U shortly after the April update, if that's what you were talking about. Can't wait for this update, the VC and the summer update! Hopefully then things will start to look better for the Wii U.
To be honest Nintendo, this shouldn't be something to show off. The one on the left is horrible, the way you made it at the beginning. The one on the right is okay but not good
Man, that difference will be great. Seriously, to those who haven't seen how long it takes JUST TO GO TO THE MENU, it's practically forever. Once I get that update, I will be very happy! :)
I like how the video audio is like, the Wii U's from the right side can be heard only through the right earphone on my headset, and same for the Wii U's audio from the left side. that's some creative editing shit right there c:
This is just what my system needed. And holy crap, after the near 3 hour update time when i took it out of the box, i sure hope we can make the os as fast as possible.
It's a large OS update. It was a mistake not to launch the console with this quality, but these things take time to produce and it's coming now. Wii U still has a small enough user base that most people will never be aware of this issue.
I was just looking around the Nintendo videos and mindlessly watch directs, trailers, and this stuff. You were the first comment that popped up on this video.
Man, the home menu looked very different back then that I didn't even noticed it. It was more transparent and the Controller Settings and Manual buttons weren't on the top.
If it's Nintendo and all I care about are Nintendo games, which are animated characters and visuals and not trying to get close to real life graphics, like the damn graphics, frame rate, and resolution doesn't really freaking matter.
Yep. It came out first on Sony's MSX2 on July 12, 1987, but it was remade months later for the Nintendo Famicom on December 22, 1987. Then the Famicom version was ported over the the North American NES in 1988. Regarding the Famicom/NES remakes, though, "The Nintendo Entertainment System version features several changes from the MSX2 original, and it is not considered an actual Metal Gear game by series creator Hideo Kojima."
No it's not. I've been going into system settings everyday and my Wii U still says there is no system update available and that it is running version 2.1.3U, the most recent stable Wii U update released March 4. This speed-improving update is not out yet.
The wii u was such a good console ,it’s a shame it didn’t sell well ,I hope Nintendo does something similar to the wii u in the future ,it was an amazing console
As I said, I didn't know if Eyetoy was the first motion control gaming device. But I don't see how your example fits into this discussion. It was mainly just a "digital" camera made for taking pictures
Yeah I remember the time me and my brother who came back from college played the original black ops zombies on the PS3 split-screen good times good times.
oh so NOW you decide to recommend me a video of the wii U. real funny TH-cam recommendations.
Ah you too ?
Me too
Me three
Me four.

It might seem crazy what I'm about to say...
About that…
Well...
Yeesh...I guess it's MY job to tell him.
Me too, and I agree 👍
I know right! I love playing Nintendo Land and Mario Kart 8!
I sure enjoy playing online with others around the world on my Nintendo 3DS and Wii U family of systems!

Didn't realize that returning to the home was that slow. This is definitely a welcome update.
Yeah

Back then I didn’t mind it, as the loading screen was so calming and futuristic 😅.
@@elijahtorres2688I recently got a Wii U, I can confirm that it only takes a year when first entering the menu.
as someone who has owned a Wii U since the beginning all i can say is "it took you this long?"
wow i'm dumb lol you know its kinda funny though because the Wii U home page still feels really damn slow lol
sheepslayer87 I I'll ill kkk
What?
Never happy are you?
This was in 2013 numb nuts
Wow, looking back at this after the Switch's super speedy OS, how did we ever put up with this?
Because the loading music is lit
I still rock a Wii-u, still enjoy AND put up with it. The loading is like 8-10 seconds, what is there to put up with?
id put up with this over how boring they made the switch
Because it was beautiful and lively. The only good nintendo UI.
It was 2012, and not even cellphones were that great at the time. And, Wii U was a more full featured OS, too.
This seems like a really nice and useful update. It is gonna make such a huge difference when it comes out.
it already came out 9 years ago

Samevi other way around but yes wii u is beast.

Why youtube recommended this to me NOW??
its sad that nintendo lost all of its charm from its menus
This was 10 years ago. Now they are closing down the eShop tomorrow 😢
This is amazing. The Wii U is sure to be a success now!
Also - I was a day 1 Wii U owner. I loved it, and still do! Success or not!
Anyone else getting this recommended??

I remember being so hyped when this came out. Crazy how time flies
@@michaelbreslin3336 Same, got hyped for Wii U back then as well but I never got it lol
2024: "This service is now discontinued. Thank you for using this service."
this video is a good way to test if you have the right headphone on the right ear
Facts
i wish the home menu still looked like this.
cant wait for this to come out next april
Wow, can't wait for this update to release!
xD
BRO ITS BIN OUT
Man's probably using Internet Explorer
both of these menus are so old and I love it

11 years…
finally, i knew these load times could be improved
TH-cam wants me to see this after the Switch Successor was confirmed to be in development. Real funny TH-cam
Underrated console 🔥🔥🔥
Wii U menu is way more charming than Switch’s menu.
Switch menu needs a optional background music, and a Wii U theme withe those rounded borders for games icons.
Was it worth the long loading times? I’ll take function over fashion for a menu in this instance
The most charming part is how you have to wait one minute to see it
Yes! Thank you, I was always annoyed with the loading time. You rock Nintendo in soo many ways! :D
The "please wait" message only occurs when a disc is in the drive, & especially noticeable on the "Injustice" game . Good to see that's getting fixed as well!
what? i get it when there is no disc inside
before: 23 secs
after: 8 secs
I wish Nintendo made a new dual screen console that could play games from most previous consoles, the new console should be compatible with the switch
I hope they continue with the Wii name instead of Switch
I was 21 in 2012. I spent the following years collecting ps2 games. (And OG gameboy games).
this is so exciting! cant wait for this to come out!
Since the game's load times are up to developers, I really hope they launch an update for their games, so the speed can stick to this update! It would be awesome!! :D
That's actually a huge improvement. Come summer time it will be even faster.
Who's here because it was not recommended by TH-cam but because it crossed your mind ?
It’s 2020 why is this in my recommended. I haven’t touched my Wii U in like a year-
I touch it for softmodding reasons
You should, it's a great console, and you can mod it in like 30 minutes and not get banned like on Switch
@@clothinghanger6978 oh damn really? I recently moved it into my room, but I haven’t played it much. I don’t have many games and idk much about modding either so-
*Notice*
You're at the top of the desktop comments list for some reason. Expect a lot of attention!
Missing out bro
People are actually complaining on how 8-10 seconds are long.
im glad i got my wii u after this update
I got mine 7 years ago
Wow. I'm really looking forward to this one!

@@angelahernandezleonel4791 ok
Very impressive
i remember when this update came out
I bought my Wii U 5 months ago. I hope Nintendo alows my games purchases to be downloadable on the Switch.
No, Wii U buddy.
Switch won't be able to play Wii U software
Yes, i know. But i still have hope in a virtual console version 4 the switch. It would be great.
Ricky Galan 😎👏
There is no indication that that is going to happen.
I just saw this in 2016. #NeverTooLate
Me too. It popped up.
Just saw it on 2017! Hello from the future!
2018 :P
Apavlakos 2018
2018 here
it isnt about the consels or the graphic or popularity or any of that jazz its about the games you play on there and the fun you have
Oh boy I remember these days when I was waiting like a hour to return to the Main Menu
GelberToad1401 lol
Same before I sold my Wii U 😭😭😭🤦🏼♂️
My dad got a wii u for me in christmas 2012. I remember it being much longer than that
I remember when updating the Wii U for the first time to get Nintendo Network. That was an hour to just install the update.
why is this in my recommended are they trying to make me buy a wii u bro how did they know i have a wii
Well, the Virtual Console service comes to the Wii U shortly after the April update, if that's what you were talking about.
Can't wait for this update, the VC and the summer update! Hopefully then things will start to look better for the Wii U.
And then they ruined everything in 2017.
What is this magic right there, what kind of sorcery is this?
The dislike button?
ivaerak IT'S NOT A SORCERY!
To be honest Nintendo, this shouldn't be something to show off. The one on the left is horrible, the way you made it at the beginning. The one on the right is okay but not good
They're honest
indeed they are but to me it looks like thy wanna say ' look how fast it is now'
Most certaintly was but i don't think they have the right to 'brag'. Now with the Switch it seems like it's blazing fast. They can brag about that
8-10 seconds really ain't that long
Man, that difference will be great. Seriously, to those who haven't seen how long it takes JUST TO GO TO THE MENU, it's practically forever. Once I get that update, I will be very happy! :)
I see im using my wiiu right know and its fast!
Still better than switch

Forever will be

cool. meanwhile on PS4 and Xbox One, you press the home button, and you're there before your finger leaves the button lol
It is not THAT fast.
meanwhile, the Switch is more fast than all those consoles.
Tja Videos I'm pretty pleased with how fast the Switch is, yeah. Glad I skipped the Wii U tbh
Now 2023 i have the latest update, and its more bad than ever before
This is just what my system needed. And holy crap, after the near 3 hour update time when i took it out of the box, i sure hope we can make the os as fast as possible.
Thanks nintendo😃🙂🇲🇽
jaja xD
Nintendo help I can't connect to the internet
Gaming with Miguel bruh y u like your own comment
I miss my Wii U so much I could cry rn
now make it so I don't need the wii u gamepad to change the god dam settings
I come from the future, they never did and we have this system called the Nintendo Switch.
0:54 Lol dat moment when Nintendo begs for likes tho
What? They aren't supposed to ask to subscribe?
Smokiam They don't ask when they take people's games down, so they no, they aren't.
bob robin this was before they took fan games down
It's a large OS update. It was a mistake not to launch the console with this quality, but these things take time to produce and it's coming now. Wii U still has a small enough user base that most people will never be aware of this issue.
im watching in 2015. And actually TVii service is not EXISTING in Russia :)
Nintendo TVii got discontinued back in August
oh, ok. Thx for info.
+Leon ShowRus no problem
NOOOOOO!!!!!! THE TVII APP WAS THE BEST THING EVER!! This is the reason why the wii u failed
"I see no difference"
Wow, I never realized how slow the old load time was until watching this...

first
Sure you are.

Also remember when you didn't have to pay to play online? Good times.
old home menu was crisp, and fast to open, why did you change it?
It used to be about how many "bits" a console had. Now it's all about how many particles can be displayed on one screen at a time. I miss the old days
I still use to this day a black wii u console. I have mario kart 8 and super mario 3D world, still runs like new
La extraño wii u fuistes una gran consola.
6 years in and the Wii U and the 3ds still manage to have more features then the switch. 🤣
15 seconds faster! Cool. Gonna be real helpful. The last thing we need is the Brawl loading screen every time we go to the Wii U menu! :P
Finally. Thank you Nintendo, downloading it right now.
I love Wii U in 2021. Still using my unit.
Glad they made it so much faster :D
Thank god for this update, as changing from software to software was a pain in the ass.
