An overview of the latest YouTube Wii U update
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 6 Comments
Wii U’s YouTube application was recently updated. There’s not a whole lot that’s new, but a few general improvements have been made.
Users are shown recommendations based on viewing habits and subscriptions upon launching the YouTube app. The app is a bit cleaner and apparently loads faster as well. It’s also possible to press left on the d-pad to open up the same menus and content that you see on the browser version.
One thing that remains the same is keeping all content on the GamePad, and the television stays blank until you start a video. There’s no Pro Controller support sadly!

Arrow Time U update out now, XenoHorizon planning another Wii U game
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Arrow Time U has received an update. If it doesn’t appear when booting up, you may need to delete the game entirely and re-download from the eShop.
“Despite poor sales”, developer XenoHorizon pushed forward with the update, as the studio didn’t want to go back on its word.
XenoHorizon is taking what it learned with Arrow Time U and applying it to future projects. Speaking of which, it sounds like the indie developer has another title lined up for Wii U.
The ATU update is finally out. You may have to delete it and re-download it from the #eShop to update.

Despite poor sales we said we'd put out the update and we did since we don't like going back on our word. But it's time to move on now.
— XenoHorizon (@XenoHorizon) January 9, 2015
ATU's not one of the better games on the #eShop but we think it's a better investment now to use what we learned on our future games.
— XenoHorizon (@XenoHorizon) January 9, 2015
Thank you for your understanding and you'll hear from us again when we announce our next #WiiU exclusive in a few months, if not sooner!

Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams GamePad sound patch releasing in North America next month
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
North American gamers have been waiting quite some time for Black Forest Games to release the GamePad sound patch for Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams. Thankfully, it appears that the update will be available in January.
Black Forest Games told Nintendo Life:
This is an issue of the US version where Nintendo US didn’t accepted the patch we did while Nintendo Europe did. We just got the info that Nintendo US is already testing our new patch, so January is a safe bet for this being fixed.
Once Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams’ patch is released, players will be able to hear sound from the GamePad’s speaker.

Steel Divers: Sub Wars was updated to version 4.1 last night. The patch brought about a single modification, which changed the submarine’s diving and surfacing angles back to how they were in version 3.0.
