[uyjulian]

Nope, it will come out Thursday, isn't that when all the eshop updates?

If it's on Sunday night I'll curse Nintendo....and then probably I'll love them again after seeing what they've done

 

[Jan1tor]

I still say that if Nintendo keeps their track record the April update will be in May!

It might actually be Sunday as that's when they release their big stuff...

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.... I want to see what changes for vWii, and if f0f makes announcement. Will update prevent hack? Will it not and hack release time since major update released now as this gives time for devs to dig in and stay in?

 

[uyjulian]

i think the update could be available from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm pacific standard as i guessed from the maintenance time said on the Nintendo website...

wether its Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday.... I want to see what the changes for the vWii will be, and if f0f will make any announcement. Will the update prevent the f0f hack progress? Or will it not and the hack be released since the major update is now due to be released as this gives time for devs to erm hmm fuck knows what this bit meant.?

TRANSLATION ATTEMPT!!

I really dont think nintendo are going to be concentrating on blocking the vWii as they seemed to give up trying on the real Wii. The changes to the vWii are as far as i understand the addition of a quick boot into vWii mode with a key press combo on startup. Not sure what you meant by digging and staying in... sounds like a night in with a smackhead.

It is done
Testing when I get home from work, but at a first glance it is nice and fast
Others are reporting that it is not affecting vWii \o/

 

[jalaneme]

so is the new update available in the uk yet?

 

[blaisedinsd]

So I heard there is miiverse support for all controllers now. In new super mario bros U can you now type messages with wiimote pointer? I heard you can type but not draw, but does this work in the game too?

Certainly is. I am installing the update on my Wii U now.

 

[PrimeX]

Ok this is a great update. The os feels and is much faster now, with lower timings all around. vWii is fine as I said before
Didn't try to write with wiimote in nsmbu but this is not a key feature imo

 

[jalaneme]

i noticed how fast it was when exiting out from settings, miiverse is much faster too.
