"Use NNU patcher to access the eshop. Download the DS game that you need. It will fail because the system update will want to be downloaded first. Just unplug your Wii U. Plug it back in after about 2 minutes and then the DS game that you paid for will start to download the system update will be gone."

This is not working for me - System Update still sitting at the top of the download queue (with red 'X' plus 'Error' on it) despite leaving the WiiU off for several minutes (& several attempts).
This is on EU 5.5.1 after successfully buying Dr. Kawashima via NNU Patcher (due to DNS bypass). Dr. Kawashima is successfully added to the download queue, and can be set to download first BUT it continually stays below the dreaded 'System Update' with just 'Pending' and 'Estimating...'. Have also tried deleting Dr. Kawashima and re-downloading - same result. "System Update" (with X Error) is *always* there!
Anything else to do/check before I try the riskier 'System Update folder deletion' via ftpiiu_forever listed in another thread?
Thanks in advance.
