Has anyone else noticed that when visiting YouTube and watching videos on the Wii U browser that you never see annoying adverts..? Or is it just that the videos I watch don't have them..?

       Wut? I see ads all the time when I am using the Wii U browser.

Yup, definitely no adverts on YouTube. You know the ones I mean, sometimes you get those little yellow vertical lines that put an advert across the bottom of the screen or those longer, full screen adverts you get where you get a 5 second countdown on the bottom right of the screen before you can skip the advert.

I wonder if this is why Nintendo got the hump with these Let's Play videos..? They must be paying YouTube some sort of fee to keep YouTube videos ad-free on the Wii U browser.
