A few issues have plagued the Wii U launch. Users have encountered freezing problems, for instance, and one user even manged to gain access to a Miiverse mock menu.

Although it hasn’t been smooth sailing for Nintendo, EEDAR analyst Jesse Divnich says the Wii U was successful. Divnich is also not at all concerned that the console will perform well on the market throughout the holiday season.

“The Nintendo Wii-U launch was a success. There were issues. Issues that are common among hardware launches and Nintendo should address them over time. Nintendo will have a successful holiday season, as they always do. I have no concerns about the Wii-U’s success through the holidays.”

A couple of months back, Akihiro Suzuki noted how the Wii U’s CPU was presenting a challenge in making Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper. Reports had surfaced from TGS that the game possessed a lower-than expected frame rate and fewer on-screen enemies compared to other Dynasty Warriors titles.

Suzuki promised an improved performance for Hyper before release, but unfortunately, it doesn’t seem as though the team was able to completely deliver.

Destructoid editor Jim Sterling wrote on Twitter recently that Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper’s frame rate is “noticeably worse than the PS3 version.” In a separate tweet, Sterling wrote that it is “very bad in Warriors Orochi 3 at times.”

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Rayman Legends was supposed to have a demo on the eShop for the Wii U’s launch. Strangely, it never made it out this past Sunday and it still isn’t available. Where is it?

We did reach out to Ubisoft about the situation a couple of days ago. As of this moment, we haven’t heard back. If and when the company responds, we’ll be sure to let you know.

Did your favorite SEGA characters not find their way into Sonic & All-Stars Racing? Well then, now you have a chance to make your voice heard!

Sumo Digital’s Steve Lycett is asking fans to come together on the official SEGA forums and come up with three top characters they would like to see in the new racer. If at least 1,000 unique people show their support per character, Lycett promises to “present the results to SEGA.”

“I’ll set you a challenge. Without any policing from the SUMO or SEGA crew, if you can all agree on three characters by the 1st of December and prove there is sufficient interest of at least 1000 unique people *per* character, I will present the result to SEGA. I can’t promise anything will happen as a result, but since you’re starting it… Let’s see if you can organise yourselves in the next few weeks to pull that off!”

You can participate in the discussion here.

A lot of Wii U games already contain updates. Nintendo Land has a rather large patch – it takes up 221MB.

New Super Mario Bros. U and ZombiU have updates as well, but they’re much smaller. They come in at 29MB and 18MB respectively.
