To be fair, Nintendo can only patch what they -know- to be exploited. It was a pre-emptive patch that they had to do blindly because they didn't have the actual exploit to examine. There's no fault in them trying, and now there are 2 less entrypoints for them to worry about.
I know it's not nintendo's fault that they didn't know about yellows8 exploit, but now because of their move, 5.4.0, 5.5.0 are enjoying themselves.
Nin released 5.5.1, which lead to yellows8's fool and then now we can enjoy his exploit. :)
 
YAY! Dropbox link worked perfectly fine for my Wii U 5.5.0U system! First time I have managed to get any sort of home-brew running on my Wii U ;).....Thanks for that link! (and the person that hosted the file)

Wait, what is this? I've been dead lately.
 
Glad for 5.4.0 and 5.5.0 user! :D:D

Ah, nothing here for me. I don't see the big deal about userland exploits.
Before this, people on 5.5.1 thought there is no userland exploit, so even if a kernel exploit being released today for 5.50, without an userland exploit, 5.5.1 is outside watching the party.

Yeah, MyNintendo is supposed to be better than Club Nintendo, they award you for buying and playing the games (no extra details how its going to work yet)
I am so glad we got to experience Club Nintendo. I put so much money into games and the service really gave back.

Hm. I've been on the fence for a while, but it looks like I'll be sticking around on 5.5.0, then.

I haven't been around the Wii U scene that much, what's happened so far? (In terms of everything that's happened, not hykem's exploit.) >.<
 
My WiiU has had no power for a week or two, I dunno, it was before 5.5.1 came out. Userland and kernel is cool, but I'm REALLY itching for IOSU. At that point, the WiiU is just as cracked as the original Wii was.

It's just that we never really had a 7th gen (I consider Wii and WiiU 7th gen, and NX as 8th) system that had this capability using only software as an entry point. With what people could come up with using the gamepad. Hoo boy.
