I asked about this on nintendolife, but i thought i could get some input from you guys to.

i recently bought a wii u that i found to loud, it was louder than the sound on my tv, even when i bumped it up!

 

 

video off it ( might have to turn up a bit, bad phone to capture sound with )

 

its loud sound even from the distance at the end of the video.

 

is this normal?

 

my friends is so quiet, i find it weird that the white should make more sound than the black.

 

(the sound is constant throught playing or in the wii menu )

How are we supposed to tell you if it's normal when the video is private?

Hmm definitely not normal. Mine's a black one and never did any noise like that. How long have you had yours for? Is it in a well ventilated place? Does it heat up a lot?

seems the black wii u machines dont encounter this issue, not based on what i heared so far.

 

one day old, no overheating, stays cool.

I don't know if it will help or not, but trying setting it vertically if you have the accessory stand. Or you can try blowing out the dust and make sure you have a bit of space for it to breathe. If it comes down to it, send it in to Nintendo to fix.

You should probably just go ahead and get a deluxe set while you're at it. It's definitely worth the $50 extra. In fact, idk why Nintendo is still selling the basic pack.
