Hardware Wii U System Transfer question

[k3rizz3k]

I have a Wii U at 5.5.1, and am thinking of getting one at 5.3.2.. My question is, will it let me transfer without updating the lower system? Or can this cause issues?

No one knows?

it wont let you transfer unless both are on the latest firmware
It might work if you spoofed the 5.3.2 one but i am not sure

Alright, was worried about losing the games on I got through the eshop. So I guess I should hold off for now?

there are private 5.5.1 kernel exploits just wait until they are released and block new updates

Alright, I just cleared internet settings from the WiiU for now. Since I don't play online anyways. Can you link me to a tut for blocking them a bit more permanently?
