"New information has emerged regarding the web browser for Wii U which will be capable of running on either your television or the Wii U Gamepad screen. You won’t be able to download files or upload files in the browser, so you won’t be able to download and save, or upload videos or pictures. We already know that the browser won’t support Flash, but instead it will support HTML 5 video. AAC codecs are supported for sound, while video formats and codecs include H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC Video) and MP4".

I wasn't planning to download or upload stuff from my Wii U anyway, but will this affect you?

No, as long as if I can watch you tube videos, I'm good.

I'm not bothered, it's what I have a computer for. Wii U is a video game console, not a computer for browsing the web.

I have sold my Wii U, so if I deleted you from NN before I sold it, or haven't accepted your friend request since, this is why.

Not being able to download or upload files on a console internet browser was almost a given.

When? lol, the only other topic I see about the browser is the topic I made the other day about it's HTML5 test, this information was not disclosed with that test, more so this article was made today, completley different news story.

Their source is the html5 test from earlier in the week.
Take with a grain of salt.
It'd be safe to assume Nintendo will keep features from the 3DS browser.

Uh, I have my PC to upload and download files. To me, the Wii U's main purpose is going to be to play video games.
