Latest Wii U update removes Nintendo TVii icon in Europe, other tidbits
Last night, Nintendo issued a new update for Wii U. The system’s firmware was brought up to version 5.4.0 in all regions.
Regarding the latest update, Nintendo said that it was intended to improve the user experience and stability as a whole. A few more details about what it actually does have since surfaced. In the end, the changes are pretty minor.
One change is specifically for European regions. The Nintendo TVii icon has been removed, which makes sense given that Nintendo announced a few months ago that it has no plans for the service.
The only other changes worth mentioning pertain to the Internet browser. The webkit has been updated, those who have Google set as their default search engine are redirected to this page, and users can post comments on the YouTube website.
Here’s a full listing of items that were modified in the new update:
