If you pick up Shadow Puppeteer on the eShop today, it’s highly recommended that you play directly from the Wii U’s storage. Unfortunately, performance is drastically impacted if the download is being read from an external hard drive. The game’s developers to intend to patch things in the future, but until then, definitely be aware of the potential issues you may encounter.

“We have found that playing the game from an external hard drive will make the game run slower because the read/write rate of the hard drive. Of course we want everyone to be able to play the game, from external hard drives too, so we will make sure to address this in our patches. Until then we recommend that the game is played directly from the Wii U.”

Update: Updates notes are in, and Nintendo didn’t surprise us! It’s the standard line: “Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience”. There’s been talk about the previous version causing issues with SD card corruption, so perhaps today’s patch addresses that.

Following last week’s firmware release, the 3DS has once again received another update. Version 10.5.0-30 is out now.

Nintendo has yet to share any notes about today’s update. Once they’re available, we’ll add them in here. I’d be surprised if it’s anything beyond improved stability though!

Nintendo sent out a new Xenoblade Chronicles X update late last night, bringing the game up to version 1.0.2. Players will find that Spanish and French subtitles have been added. These can be accessed by setting the system language to the desired language. Xenoblade Chronicles X’s update weighs less than 20MB, so it’s quite small!

Thanks to Cameron for the tip.
