Right now you probably can't use it and may be dependent on the game.
Edit: Okay nice with Blops II!

Didn't I see someone playing BLOPS2 on the control pad using IR controls? That's something, at least.

"Urgent" question guise :
I'll have to go to sleep soon since I wrok early tomorrow, but the update will likely end at 2 or 3 o'clock in my calculations...
So my question is : Will it install automatically and is there an auto power off ? Or will it still be on tomorrow morning ?
Thanks !

When you're connected to the internet (and your Wii U isn't pretending it's not). Try the fix posted on Kotaku if it's not working. I sporadically had Nintendo Miis until this fix was performed.

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
Edit: opps, wrong thread.
New user tip: now only do you have to update the system, but most games too. So give yourself lots of time!

Hmm. Best place for me would be on the dining table (wife might not like it though). Direct below the bedroom, and less than 10ft to the sofa. Would need a long HDMI cable but I've done at before with the projector.
How many of the games so far use the wiimote with the sensor bar? I'm thinking if the sensor bar is only used occasionally, I might pick up a wireless one and just drop it in front of the TV when needed, rather than having he wired one stuck on top all the time.
Edit: just got a server error while downloading the system update :/ is that flaky Nintendo network, or possibly a wifi issue?

From what I remember, the automatic power-off feature is enabled by default. However, it should be temporarily disabled while the update is downloading and installing. I think it should install automatically.
I'd make sure no discs are inside the console in case it stays on all night, though. The disc doesn't seem to stop spinning as long as the console is on.

Thanks. I guess I'll put on an alarm at 3 o'clock then.
> that feel when no power off
This.when you make an update the power off feature is disabled. After downloading the update, it installs it. Just mind the battery life. On the system update, it blinked red so I charged it while updating. Don't know what will happen if you are updating , and the gamepad shuts down from the battery ...
Is there a way to turn the pad screen of when watching Netflix and the like? When I go to home menu and pad settings, the netflix pauses, then i turn the screen off, but the only way to unpause netflix is to hit a button, which turns the screen back on. Am I missing something?

40 minutes left for UK midnight launch?
Yeah it does not take that long, unless it applying the update.
Correct.
I'm curious for this too. Also can I play nsmbu with the game(using the controls but turn the screen off in order to save battery?

I think a lock up is normally coupled with a noise coming from your console. Not sure what your problem is.

You create a new Nintendo Network ID. You can name it the same as your Mii on your 3DS if you choose to do so.
I don't believe there is a nin account system for 3ds yet.

There is no workaround for Netflix just yet, but you can turn off the GamePad display from the Home Menu and control New Super Mario Bros. U with a Wii Remote.
Personally, I keep my GamePad away and turn on the console with the Wii Remote so the GamePad doesn't have to be on at all when I play New Super Mario Bros. U.
Edit: I misunderstood your question. The screen has to be on in order to use the GamePad controls.

Apparently GAME in store prices are around £50-£55.

Thank you for the reply. I find incredible relaxing playing nsmbu with the gamepad so I guess I'll have to deal with it

I just had a quiet lock up during Blops II. Was during the tutorial for the RTS part of the story mode. All my other freezes were buzzing ones though.

If you mean the stamps, you can view them by clicking the appropriate icon in the screen just before playing each game (the screen that usually consists of a camera panning around your Mii).
You can't view the requirements for each stamp, but the stamp name could provide a clue.

Awesome. What did they add?
