The actual Desmond gameplay portions in three were actually pretty good though. Really immersing with no HUD, and cool environments.

Help Im Alive posted:I checked out the Daily Log app yesterday to see how much I've actually been using my Wii U ever since I got it back in December and I was honestly pretty surprised. My top 5 were: My Top 10 (on my account, a few games would be higher if I added up accounts but screw that) Nintendo Land - 47:16 New Super Mario Bros. U - 23:01 Game & Wario - 15:32 Internet Browser - 14:57 Netflix - 14:19 Lego City Undercover - 9:57 Sonic Transformed - 8:54 ZombiU - 7:25 Miiverse - 7:08 Hulu Plus - 4:29 Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate - 4:20 Scary how I haven't owned Game & Wario for a week and it's already #3 on that list. I'm not done with any of those games at all too, still plenty more gameplay coming.

Wait, how are you guys getting those top 5's and 10's? I can only see daily listings. And Netflix is my current (And probably will always be) highest time with a staggering 526:38 on it.  It would probably be less if I had some actual games to play on here besides the few VC games I've bought and the two Retail games I own but I'm not getting Game and Wario for a while and once the first party games (Along with other games that I'm looking at like Bayo 2 or W101) start rolling in again I'll probably stop using it as my Netflix box so much.

Did we discuss the Summer firmware update yet? If not then you are in for a treat! So when can we expect this Summer update?   The link she posted goes here.

A new update was just pushed now. It's just for stability. I wonder what this "summer update" is going to really add.

It's not. Basically it enables the Wii U to periodically check for updates when it's turned off and download/install them so it's ready to play next time you turn it on.

My bad (kind of), it's a small system update while the summer firmware update is being pushed back according to Emily Rogers. Unless they are the same thing and it's just a play of words.

Still waiting on the ability to make purchases on other devices and download them remotely, which Iwata announced before the console came out.

This is why it's always safer, when presented with an entire season as a release date, to assume "a month or two after the season ends". The spring update was right on time, but that was just lucky.

Have they even hinted at what's going to be in the update? All I remember being advertised update-wise were videos about the loading time improvements on the system menu that were in the Spring update.

All I remember being advertised update-wise were videos about the loading time improvements on the system menu that were in the Spring update. I remember rumors last year about cloud saves being added in 2013. I'm also hoping for a unified account system that'll probably come when the 3DS gets Miiverse, which is also supposed to be sometime soon. Of course, it'll probably just be more speed, but that'd be my wishlist right there.

A good (if slightly esoteric) feature would be audio sync between the Gamepad and TV. It's no longer an issue with my new TV, but with my old set there was an irreducible audio delay and it sounded horrible whenever the same sound played from both sets of speakers.

Thanks everyone on the words on AC3, I decided to just dive in and sorta ignore the awful space magic parts. I wish there was a way to play on both the Wii U Remote and TV at the same time (sorta like how Mario U works single-player) because I have awful eyesight but my partner wants to watch me play... So I have to sit up close to the TV to see what I'm doing most of the time  (Off-TV play completely turns off the TV.)Also has anyone who's played it on Wii U had weird graphical glitches? In the first area whenever I'm far-ish away from a sailboat the sails turn neon green and yellow.

There was a whole cutscene where the main character just didn't have a head.

So I bought Game And Wario even though it got bad reviews What a poo poo selection of MP games. The only good one is pictionary, but I have been burned out on Words With Friends and all those other FREE apps on my phone. Single player is better, but that's single player. BEWARE E: This goes to show how starved I am of MP games and what I'll spend to at least try it out. Come on Nintendo, this is loving weak.

Push them dude!

Does homebrew work on the wii-u's wii side? I'm trying to get a rip of my xenoblades so I can dolphin. Do I need to dig out my wii instead? I'm looking at the OP and the modmii route.

If you didn't flip it yet at Gamestop, also give Miiverse Sketch a chance. It's surprisingly addictive and funny stuff comes out of it.
