Nintendo warns: Don’t turn off Wii U during updates

Turning off your Wii U during updates is a bad thing. Nintendo is warning consumers on Twitter not to do so, as this “may causing damage” to the console.

“Wii U owners, please do not power down or unplug your system while downloading updates. Doing so may cause damage to your Wii U.”

This seems like something obvious, but I do wonder what Nintendo expects people to do if the console shuts down during a blackout while updating. Or a thunderstorm. Things happen!
