So, WiiKey apparently claims that they've managed to hack the Wii U, meaning that hackers are able to play pirated games.

Wiiudaily article

Apparently it's not something that would be too much of a problem for Nintendo to take care of I believe, but just figured to check what you guys think?

I wouldn't be surprised if this was just another way for the site to get more action on the comments section, since it seems as they're the only ones posting about it, haven't checked many news sources so I don't know.

As for something interesting that might end up being positive for those who'd like to see GTA on Wii U, it doesn't confirm anything, not something that anyone should get hyped for.

Wow. The Rayman Legends app was a fucking disappointment. Just the same levels with some fucking challenges that are shit and a waste of time. I thought they were going to add a new level, not repackage the same game and put in some small things and expect us to forgive them! No! I've been with Rayman sine the original and this is just fucking ridiculous! Whoever said "Rayman fans don't fuck around" on another thread is right! I am pissed and Ubisoft just wants more money to crap out more Assassins Creed. Out of all their series Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six and Rayman are the only ones that haven't strayed from their path and fucked up. But Even Ghost Recon fucked up I heard and Rainbow Six and Rayman, I'll wait and see. I don't get why the fuck they keep ignoring their mascot that got them on the map and just replace quicker than the speed of light! Honestly Ubisoft, you just piss me off sometime and now you've reached my limit!

I dunno something that isn't the same thing with some small things included. At least a new level to play.

Eh, so EA drops their support and apparently claims that Wii U is unable to run their Frostbyte 2 engine. Some people claim that since that Crysis game ran smoothly on the Wii U, they must have not even tried to make the Frostbyte run properly.

I don't find this as a big loss since I barely have any EA titles, like, one MoH and The sims game for GCN and NHL 97 for SNES, that's it.

I'm hoping that they'll get what's coming to them, honestly, it looks like they're acting like complete dicks and seem to be proud of it.

Oh and Ubisoft Reflections have teased that they'll announce something new on E3, what could that be?

And lately EA have been douchebags towards Nintendo because the latter stopped caring about them (there's the rumor EA wanted Nintendo to use their Origin as the Wii U's online service and they responded back with a "lol nope") . So it'not surprising EA is throwing shit at Nintendo and basically dropping their support.

I don't know much about the history between Nintendo and EA, heard about the online service argue, but it's rumored that right now the things between some guys from Nintendo and EA are so bad, that they refuse to talk with each others, that's already saying something about the co-operation.

But you can really see who is childish company, I haven't seen Nintendo saying anything bad about EA, although I wish they did, I think it's wrong that EA can just talk bullshit about them and the Wii U, but I guess Nintendo is just being smart.

I don't think so, already one hacker who is apparently known for being the one who was the main key for the creation of homebrew for Wii, has said he won't bother hacking the Wii U, he said something about, homebrew not being as appealing anymore because consoles are becoming more like computers or something like that.

He also said something about that Ouya thing being way easier to hack, but got to remember that he is just one hacker, some dickhead will evenually create something like that, but right now, if someone is stupid enough to hack their U and turn on the internet while playing, they might just be fucked.

Well, it is starting to look like that Xbox One isn't a threat to Wii U at all, people seem to be pissed off about it, haven't really checked too much, but from what I've read so far, seems complicated to me.

It looks like that the competition will be tough with Wii U and the PS4, since they seem to be the more gamer friendly systems, but who knows, it's too early to say, but if Sony makes a mistake with the pricing, things definitely looks like Wii U is getting the upper hand.

Honestly, the more flaws PS4 and Xbox one have, the better it for Wii U if you ask me.

Oh and hey, look, EA news OMFG WTF WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!?!!

Wii U is going to be this generation's N64...

It suffers from an early lack of games, but will have some of the best first-party games ever made!

I honestly barely play my Wii U right now, I need a new game and I can't think of one to get, any help? And I played MHU3 at my friends, it was alright, but I don't really think they improved much from the Wii version.

You didn't play enough. It's definitely a huge improvement from the wii version. I'm around 120 hours in and I still haven't finished the game. I suppose that if you don't like this types of games you shouldn't buy it.

I do like those type of games, it's just that I couldn't be bothered to play most of what I have already played, I'd rather get Injustice.

They're going to make some games, most likely crappy watered down ports or just some crappy games in general, other than that, nothing.

I don't really care, but considering the fact that they own the right to Star Wars games, I'm concerned about the Wii U version of Battlefront 3 (when it eventually comes out). But even still, most of there games are more enjoyed on a PC, like Battlefield.

Super Metroid for Virtual Console is currently on sale for 30 cents in the eshop. Wootwoot!

Been having a great time with MHU3 for WiiU, totally recommend that game if you ever pick up a WiiU. Also got Nintendo Land and NSMBU which have been fantastic.

Nintendo REALLY needs to advertise their console better. :/... Maybe they're waiting for more games to come out or somethin'.

Man, I really need to use my Wii U more, I might just get Injustice for it, but only like 3,000 people are playing it, I don't want Assassin's Creed 3 online to happen again. Wait 1 hour for a game, lose connection, find a game, players are noobs. Still I might just get MHU3, I blame Ubisoft for my Wii U barely being used. Right now, I SHOULD be playing Legends, but nooooo, they had to be dicks! Anyway, that's my rant over, anybody actually played Injustice on the Wii U?

If they can make that for the Wii U Gamepad i don't see why you can't charge it on a normal backup battery charger vis the USB,sucks that the Pad doesn't have as much versatility when it comes to charging it or then the battery life wouldn't be much of an issue anyway.

Support Game and Wario on Crowdfarter.

Wario needs your help, so give him your coins so he can make his damn game!

Trailer.

Looks really good, mostly because it's another game fro the Wii U. Only 40$ too, so it's worth buying.

Nintendo Land 2.0, but still, looks to be great with friends.

What they need to do is re-design the pro controller with a headset jack, I having my gamepad next to me when I play AC3 online (that is when I find a match)
