Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
A new YouTube update is now available to download for Wii U. It’s not too big, as the download is under 100MB.
We’re not entirely sure what today’s update encompasses. It does seem like there may have been a bit of a redesign – see the GamePad image below. There might be additional ads as well. If anyone has further insight to share about the update, let us know!

Thanks to DJMusicClues and Jake for the tip.

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 3 Comments
Following Freedom Planet’s final delay, GalaxyTrail said that a new date wouldn’t be announced until all bugs and issues were ironed out. The game did finally make its way to the North American Wii U eShop on Thursday, but some players are unfortunately encountering a notable problem. During a particular cut-scene, a bug pops up that can cause the Wii U to freeze.
GalaxyTrail said on Miiverse a few days ago that they’re aware of a problem. There’s no timetable for it yet, but a patch is already planned. GalaxyTrail also shared some temporary solutions.
Here’s the full Miiverse post:

Xenoblade Chronicles X updated to version 1.0.2 in Japan (glitch fix)
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 8 Comments
Xenoblade Chronicles X has received its second update in Japan. Given the small increment in the version change (1.0.2), it should come as no surprise that there isn’t a whole lot to the patch.
The new update simply addresses a single glitch within the game. Monolith Soft has fixed things so that players won’t encounter issues obtaining a single Union Point at a time during offline play. That’s all there is to it!
Shovel Knight update size (Plague of Shadows)
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 3 Comments
The Plague of Shadows update for file size is now available. On Wii U, the patch weighs in at a little under 100MB.
The 3DS version is slightly different. You’ll need 715 blocks of free space, but that’s from the entire game. Yacht Club Games has brought the overall size down from 1,217 blocks.
Note that on 3DS, you’ll want to grab the update from the 3DS eShop. Don’t use the in-game menu!
