I've had five hard locks at least and several disc read errors.

In NSMB U at one point it wouldn't let me play the Challenge Mode because a disc read error would pop up. I cleaned the disc (which was brand new), but got the same message again.

The system is just generally slow as molasses going in between menus most of the time too.


1) Anything since the update last night?

2) I think poeple never used their PS3. I seriously don't see much of a difference in going from wiiu menu to a game or miiverse or anything else that didn't exist in Ps3 menu to game or store or netflix or web, etc. Do I hope its improved over time? of course, but its no where near as bad as people claim, nor any different from my experience with the only other consoles I've owned with significant home menus (wii/ps3).


Is the Wii U slow as molasses?  Perhaps this video will tell the tale.

I did it multiple times, that day.  I even went from powered off to an online match in Black Ops (The original on 360 vs. the sequel on the Wii U) and I was shocked to find that, on that day, I actually got into an online Team Death Match before the Xbox 360 found a game!

I turned on both at the same time.  As soon as the option presented itself, I logged into the Wii U or Xbox 360.  Depending on which console I pressed the power button on first, the winner varied but always by about one or two seconds.   And this was before the update.  Sorry about the piss poor condition of the video.  All I had to use was my shitty cell phone camera.
