New Wii U games for 2013

Wii U owners rejoice! Nintendo have announced a flurry of games for the console featuring some Nintendo favourites. Among the titles you can look forward to playing over the coming months will be two new Zelda titles (one of them being an HD remake of The Wind Waker), a new 3D Mario game which I presume could be Super Mario Galaxy U, a brand new Mario Kart title and Yarn Yoshi, a similar concept to Kirby’s Epic Yarn.

How to transfer data from the Wii to Wii U

If you’re looking to transfer all your data and game saves from your Wii over to your Wii U you’re going to need to use the transfer software which you can find hidden away in the ‘channels’ section of the shop.

Ubisoft have released a couple of live action trailers for Wii U launch title ZombiU. They follow the plight of two survivors in London who give a testimony to camera and are then promptly attacked by some virus-infected weirdos. My advice?

Wii U bricking during firmware updates

The Wii U‘s hit a bit of trouble in the US on its day of launch. Once bought, customers realised it needed a firmware update of over 1GB which on slower networks could take more than an hour to download. People with dodgy connections reported interrupted updates and bricked consoles as a result. So the question is, is anyone in need of an expensive black paper weight?
