Why is firmware versions 5.5.1 and 5.5.2 so important?

This genuinely puzzles me. I know it's not because of RedNAND, because even the newer versions can use it. I dont think its for CFWs, as you can still use CBHC with 5.5.5. Maybe its because it can support older and newer homebrew? I don't really know, so I wanted to ask just to starve off the curiosity

Not sure who told you these firmwares were particularly important, because you should be able to hack out a Wii U on any official firmware.

Oh, yeah-- I'm aware. I already have a hacked Wii U, but everyone likes to point out what firmware version they have (specifically when its 5.5.1, 5.5.2, or 5.5.3) and I just assumed it was special or something and I wanted to now why.

    if we can have economic literacy, decency and respect for rights then so much the better but that is asking too much.
  • Xzi @ Xzi:
    Even if AOC had gone straight from being a bartender to running for president, she would've been preferable to the last two guys we elected

  • Veho @ Veho:
    I gave this homeless guy $5 and an old lady behind me told me he's just going to use it for drugs, so I confronted him and asked where I could also get drugs for $5
  • Veho @ Veho:
    The leading expert on drug abuse and drug rehabilitation in our country recently said in an interview that IT people and developers are all on cocaine (statistics have shown). So I thought I could score some, but apparently none of my coworkers or my wife's coworkers or our friends and their coworkers are on cocaine and don't know where to get some primo shit. Which leads me to believe the statistic is somewhat skewed.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Turns out all the cocaine is actually consumed by one single guy and he's messing up the averages.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Both in cocaine use, and in the KPI.

    Xanax is the opposite of what I need.
