#138938 Wii U got problems?

Posted by crellion on 27 November 2012 - 05:14 AM in Wii U Hardware

I'm kind of torn about polls like this. I mean - if I only had a couple of freezes since launch but all is good now - should I consider myself fortunate and say I don't have any problems? Or should I be completely "freeze-free" since the start to say this?

I know some people don't care if it freezes a bit, but as long as it works great after that and they can game for hours-upon-hours - they consider it a-ok...



#138725 Wii U Game/App Updates (Download and Install)

You'd have to watch it install.. you cant install an update in the background.


Bummer - well I guess we're not there yet in terms of these conveniences - here's to hoping though :)



#138691 Wii U Game/App Updates (Download and Install)

It's not possible for it to be running and updating at the same time..

So, yes. You have to manually do it.


Well I'm not even saying running the same game or game - like if it was downloading the Nintendoland Update (which is a massive 238mb) - and I was in Netflix App the whole time until it finishes downloading. Then are you saying - it will install only when I click on the Nintendoland Channel again from the Wii U Menu (and show the Install Progress Bar) - vs it installing silently in the background while I'm still in Netflix and then I can just launch Nintendoland and play it straight away...



#138688 Wii U Game/App Updates (Download and Install)

The update will install the next time you open the app.

It does it in the background.. when you press the home button, the last icon will be download management. You can see the progress in there.


So these software updates never silently installs in the background? You always have to "manually" trigger the install of the update?



#138621 Wii U Game/App Updates (Download and Install)

Posted by crellion on 26 November 2012 - 03:54 PM in Wii U Hardware

I got a QQ regarding Wii U Game/App Updates like the incremental patch updates just released for YouTube and Amazon Video App Channels. I noticed that when you click on those specific App channels, it will automatically start doing an update on it (if there is one.)

But there is also a "Start Software" button which just launches the App immediately - and it seems then the update just happens in the background. My question is if you do this, will the update then apply itself automatically after it finishes downloading, or do you have to manually go back to the Wii U Menu - click on that App Channel again for it to trigger the Install?

Also does the Install itself always have to take up the entire screen or can it be done in the background automatically?
