The Wii U's browser is pretty awesome.

Can you watch youtube on it?

It is better than the youtube app.You can play the youtube clip on the TV while still browsing on the gamepad. Or choose to watch it on the pad. You can fast forward/backward with the L/R buttons or the left thumb stick.

EDIT: Pro Tip. if you want to see non-common video formats:

 

• Go to Start Page
• Go to settings (top right)
• Go to "Switch User Agent"
• Choose iPad 
• Go back and try to play the video again.

 

Unfortunately this resets when you turn the Wii U off.

Hm i havent ran into any video formats that didnt play, but Reddit wouldn't load properly. Maybe that will help. Thanks.
