Upcoming Wii U System Update Will Help Improve Load Times

March 28, 2013 by Matt Hawkins

Eventually the time it takes to exit a game and to entire the system menu will actually be tolerable.

As you can tell, it's a night and day difference. One could easily harp on Nintendo for having such a ridiculously slow system performance in the first place, but the most important thing is that it's being addressed and will soon be a thing of the past.

The upcoming update is the first of two, The second comes later this summer, and will finally give us Wii U Virtual Console. Unfortunately, it will have its own unique headache to deal with.
