Wii U

[UltraMario]

The gamepad has to be in a certain range of the Wii U. But some people bring the wii u places and just plug it in somewhere without a tv and play a game like NSMBU that you can see on the gamepad. Pretty sweet idea if you ask me.

So I guess that's a no...?

Well, it was never a portable console. It's just a wireless controller.

With a SCREEN.

Nintendo basically said it could be independent from the TV, so how was I supposed to know.

I would take you seriously of you didn't put the crying face there.

I FIXED IT. HAPPY?

 

[Crackin355]

I think you left caps lock on.

As far as I've been testing, New Super Mario Bros. U can be fully played without TV.
Nintendo Land and ZombiU, however, still require a TV.

I clearly understand, but I just meant the system in general.

 

[YamiHoshi]

Most of the Wii U features are usable without TV, but there are still exceptions, like YouTube.

Say WHAAAAAAAAAT!?

 

[YamiHoshi]

Yes, YouTube:

 

[Crackin355]

I thought they had to have an update to include the video services like YouTube? Unless it already happened and I'm behind.

 

[Revin]

Are there any new customization options for Miis on the Wii U?

 

[Mario4Ever]

No, they just carry over the added options from the 3DS.

 

[Revin]

Does that mean you can easily transfer Miis from the Wii U to the 3DS?

 

[UltraMario]

Also, does internet browser the Flash, Javascript, and other stuff like that?

 

[YamiHoshi]

Actually, YouTube came with the Wii U, I had it already pre-installed.

And no, there's no Flash on in the Internet Browser.
I didn't test JavaScript, though.

 

[UltraMario]

HTML5 works, I suppose?

I just hope Java works.

 

[YamiHoshi]

*JavaScript.
Java is something totally different.

 

[Lakituthequick]

As far as I heard, it doesn't support flash.

JavaScript would be stupid not to include, every browser has it.
And HTML5 is supported.

I haven't been in the Mii Maker since making a Mii to correspond with the creation of my Nintendo Network ID and such, so I don't know and haven't tried, but I'll let you know as soon as I get a chance. What I meant was that the customization options introduced on the 3DS are also present on the Wii U.

 

[Revin]

Ok, I was just wondering.

 

[YamiHoshi]

I'm in Mii Maker a lot, but only for the music.

 

[New Super Mario]

Is there a way to control what comes up in the WaraWara Plaza? I'd like games I've favorited to come up, not things like Bass Fishing and 30 Great Games: Obstacle Course.

 

[Mario4Ever]

I don't think so. I think it depends on whoever's online at the time (I've seen communities for the eShop and Wii U Chat, for example, though I'm not sure those count, since I think everyone in the plaza at that time represented Nintendo).

 

[freakworld]

The Wii U is the best console ever. Period.

Wii U owners I have 2 questions for you

1 When playing Wii games on Wii U can you play them on the Gamepad?
2 Can you do saving and stuff on the Gamepad?
