Nintendo has released a minor Wii U (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/nintendo-wii-u/games/12079/wii-u/) system update.http://cdn.medialib.computerandvideogames.com/screens/dir_2943/image_294311_thumb_wide300.jpg (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/viewer.php?mode=article&id=294311)
The update, dubbed Version 2.1.3 U, makes "further improvements to overall system stability," according to Nintendo's patch notes (http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/wiiu/en_na/system_system_update.jsp)
.The patch is not the previously announced Wii U speed optimisation update (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/387903/two-system-updates-to-remedy-wii-u-game-loading-lag/), which is set to arrive across two downloads in April and later this summer.Those updates will also introduce the new Virtual Console - boasting games from classic consoles including, for the first time, titles released on Game Boy Advance.Speaking during a Nintendo Direct broadcast in January, company president Satoru Iwataapologised to Wii U owners (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/387903/two-system-updates-to-remedy-wii-u-game-loading-lag/) who believe the loading times between selecting a game and playing it are far too long.Iwata also detailed a number of enhancements designed to make the Wii U game experience more social."The fun of video games is not only just playing games, but also sharing experiences together with people - even though they live far away, their skill levels are different or their experience does not happen at the same time," He said."We want Wii U to be the system that brings everyone together."
