Don't care about vWii but do care about future Wii U mode hacks, is it safe to update to latest firmware? I am guessing that when future hacks do come out, there will use the latest firmware, so am I good to go?

I don't get the point of this...

Why do you refer to some member of the Fail0verflow team and their statement that "updating the Wii U's firmware would be safe"?

No one of them said what kind of exploit they may have used. They may have an exploit that is safe. But no one ever said that Fail0verflow is going to release any kind of information on what exact exploit that is.

Maybe they don't release anything. Why even should they...? They have no reason to do that. The side effect of releasing such is also ineffective as we all know. I prefer to stay away from updating the Wii U's firmware.

Btw i like the way how companies like Sony and Nintendo call their bug / exploit fixing "improving user experience and system stability". Come on guys: don't tell me you are that credent...

    That Dell data breach is worse than people probably realize....

    When I worked for Dell we had access to data about military contracts and addresses for high ranking people.

    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol

    sometimes I wonder why anyone would ever buy mega man x legacy collection 2
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I always thought that capcom shuffled the games in these collection, but apparently they are all in chronological order, which makes legacy collection 2 worthless
