I have an orange nerf armor on mine. It's actually pretty comfortable and adds a tiny bit of grip


#134465 Slow Internet and Freezing Netflix

Posted by Rathavyr on 20 November 2012 - 08:02 AM

Found a fix to my problem on another site, in case anyone else is experiencing the same as me. This also works if you cannot connect to WiFi at all. Netflix and other apps no longer froze the system after doing this:

Ok so far heres what works, entering in everything manually.


1. Go into connection types, Hit "Manual Configuration"

2. Input your SSID

3. Input the correct security type, this is key.

4. Put your password in properly

5. For ip address "Do not auto obtain".

6. open up cmd in your computer, type in ipconfig

7. Now input that ip address but add 10 to the last number so "192.168.0.1" will be entered as "192.168.0.11"

8. Enter the rest of your info inside such as subnet mask and default gateway exactly as you see it in your ipconfig.

9. Now hit next, hit configure now for your DNS. When asked about DNS hit "Dont auto obtain".

10. For the first server put in 8.8.8.8

11. For the second server put in 8.8.4.4

12. Hit Next, when asked about a proxy hit no proxy

13. Leave mtu as the default

14. it should work, if not check the ip and that it is the internet ip + 10. Good luck

A lot of the 3rd party ports are having some problems at the moment, getting really annoying :(


#135471 Rumor: Another Wii U patch coming next week, will fix freezing issues

Posted by Manny T. Starr on 21 November 2012 - 11:53 AM

Eh, I wouldn't worry so much as to how long these combined updates will take for those who've yet to obtain their Wii U's. Let's just be happy that Nintendo's actually trying to fix their mistakes. c:

#131168 Is my copy of Assassin's Creed 3 defective? (Picture included)

Data is stored on the outer ring base. I believe the only purpose for the inner ring is to allow it to cling onto a clip (and for your finger :P)


Yep.

Now the REAL reason the inner ring exists is to keep gamers from being single for the rest of their lives. ;)


#130842 My video game store got 3 basic wii u in today

Posted by Spleenzorio on 16 November 2012 - 11:09 AM

This is why I still wait in line even with a pre-order.  Perfect example - 1999 for the Sega Dreamcast I waited out at what was then an EB Games, now gamestop. I was first to arrive and by the time they opened the doors well over 100 people were in line. They came out with bad news. Out of the 80 systems ordered only 40 arrived. First come first serve kicked in. Felt bad for all the others, but stuff like that happens



That's why I prefer pre-orders by far. I was first on the list for a Wii U at my EB Games, and even if I'm dead last in line when they open I'm garenteed to get one. I just called my store and the girl said they already got theirs and have quite a few, although I'm not sure how many pre-orders they have total but they do have a waiting list. Only sucky part is they aren't doing a midnight or early opening, so I gotta wait til noon >_<!
