Thanks for your reply, I'm actually looking for the wiiMC app, not the forwarder.

Really? Nice, does YouTube no longer lock up the browser?

I didn't really see it locking up on 3.1.0E either

Should work just fine on vWii mode

I didn't really see it locking up on 3.1.0E either

What the deuce? I wonder why it locked up on the last firmware version I used. Well, glad to hear it doesn't freak out

I've not had a problem with it either, so I'm not sure what he means.

When I used YouTube a few days ago, the video froze. Looks like it was a fluke, so I should be fine. Must be my crappy WiFi This was on the browser and not the dedicated YouTube app.

Anyway, glad I could help

Question does it also stream V-wii sound?

It does

And that's how you GET SHIT DONE

 

[drakorex]

Anyone else notice that the USB ports changed? It used to not matter which port I plugged my hdd into for vwii. I always plugged it into the front left port. Now it has to be plugged into the top back one.

Yep.

Now lets somehow make Pro to work as Classic Controller

So I think it is kind of silly I can quick boot wii mode by holding B but it forces me to make a menu selection on the TV in order to function.

So if I want to play wii in off tv mode I have to ask to switch the TV input or else blindly pont the wiimote at the screen and hope I get lucky.

Even having to use a controller this a very cool feature for people like me who have the Wii U hooked up to main TV in the living room that is shared among the family. Don't get me wrong, supporting the gamepad controls as at least a classic controller would make it tons better but this is still a great feature. I have not hacked my vWii yet but this is really making me want to.

OMG awesome update!!!

• Users can choose to output to the TV and GamePad, or just the TV

That's awesome!!! If Nintendo can make the Wii U Gamepad a 'Wiimote emulator' then the Wii U Gamepad is pretty much compatible with vWii

It's easy to point it to the right choice, when the cursor is on the "Yes" button, you can feel the controller vibrate a bit, then you press A

Oh wow this is a great update. They claimed Wii Mode gamepad support was impossible due to hardware, looks like they ate their own words in the end.
I had to double check to make sure it wasn't April 1st, this update just sounds too good to be true.
Every single new feature added is something that was requested by a lot of users. It seems Nintendo do listen to those requests

The new eshop music is great, also the browser is much better (scores 308+4 point on html5test, making it the best video game console web browser as of now).
