LOL It would be cool actually, but I think the weak power of the console won't give you much. :)

1- That is why I posted it here and not the news section.

2- Doesn't mean you don't have one that no one has one.

3- I care, and people with a WiiU do care.

It was a joke. I don't have a use for it, but I know many people who do!

Cool, I knew about the folders but I didn't realise it also added the ability to change the apps on the quick start menu. Means that the recently used apps won't always be useless crap like system settings and so on. Cheers for the heads up.

Nice, I hate having to scroll on any touch devices. Always cramp up all my apps on my phone into folders so I can have everything I need 95% of the time in the same screen

Neat.

 

The Wii U has become a console that I am actually really interested in
since Nintendo's excellent show at this year's E3. Before that I held no
interest in the console at all - but I found myself interested in literally
every single game they showed off at the event. :D
