Many thanks Vince. - Jak na to + styl
2024 and our son asked for a Wii U haha! Had his heart set on these classic games and console. We have no prior knowledge of how to operate these as we have the current gaming consoles in our home. We were genuinely surprised when he asked, but we tracked one down in mint condition for him, and off we went, but it's not so easy as we're finding out! You are a lifesaver! Thank you so very much! Very appreciated!
Best wishes from America!
Well you should get him one!
I’ve had a wiiu since 2021 and i still play on it!
I’d be friends with your son!

Wii U was a bust. I fully invested in that piece of shit lol.

Gotta tell you, 5 years later and I was able to follow along with your video on a Wii U I'm rehabbing where the screen on the gamepad is DOA, but the pad works... I watched what you did, immitated it to a T and walked through setup! On the money even with some OS upgrades obvious by guessing but it all went great, huge thanks!
People say the Wii u is garbage but in my opinion I like it
I agree that the wii u is the best console ever

It honestly is! It might actually be the console that is just the most purely fun in video games!!! That's why I bought one in 2019.................

I appreciate the thorough video of the Wii U! I’m wanting to buy it pretty soon and wanted to see what the unit looked like all plugged up. I played a demo on it but only when it first came out and couldn’t remember what it all comes with.
lets appreciate the fact that he put in 1 hour of effort for beginners
Just bought one so excited so I am literally just watching all Wii u videos
Thank you so much for posting this video. We just bought a wiiu for Christmas. This video was very helpful in getting the unit set up. Very informative, thanks again!
Me as an Nintendo Switch owner: This Wii U set up was super complicated. The video is very informative and I appreciate your effort to make things look easy.
I had more trouble setting up my Xbox 360 than my Wii U, the worst thing was asking my parents to pay the 50 cents to have Miiverse
@@marcelojogos6247 It wasn’t free if it found out you were underaged
You can tell how much simpler to use Nintendo wanted the Switch to be
Just me who loves watching stuff like this even though I can easily set up a wii u without any tutorial? 😂
I love watching this even tho I don't have a Wii u
Same lol I have the switch but I want the Wii U for the original splatoon
Noku lucky man.. I had the regular wii lol
I have a Wii, Wii u and a switch
@@galactic4590 cool...
Robloxfan1234 2.0 yep
I may get one for Christmas even though almost everyone on the internet considers it to be "dead". I'm still excited, as the child I am being.
@Jasmine.Unicorn _Games Our regular wii has stopped playing disks lately so we managed to get a Wii U on Ebay for £100 with 4 just dance games (my sister was happy about that (she's 14)). Dad suggested getting a Wii U cause we could still play our collection of Wii games and it would be in HD rather than AV.
@Jasmine.Unicorn _Games Ordered on Saturday, posted by the seller on Monday and hopefully will arrive tomorrow!
@Jasmine.Unicorn _Games No, not at all. It was our original Wii which stopped reading disks. Dad reckons it was because the of the lens. Our original wii dates back to 2006 and we got in second hand in 2014 don't worry!
The Wii U is superior hardware (released 6/7 years after the original Wii) so will work perfectly fine! I hope you enjoy it xx
@@SusannaEmily you can play wii on hdmi too, you just need a wii2hdmi converter which you can get on ebay or amazon. The only problem is that the Wii can only output upto 480p while the Wii U can go upto 1080p. Still, 420p is till better than the original 420i
Wii U will look a lot cleaner so I recommend getting it. I said the above for people who don't want to buy a new console but still want the Wii to look cleaner.
Thank you and God Bless for explaining everything so Perfectly. You are an Excellent teacher. I have a 4 year old and want to introduce her to computers and the joy of video games and this is a great start

I used to have a Wii U but my sister broke it like 2 years ago, I am now looking at these videos and remembering how I used the console whenever I played super Mario 3D World. I miss her (the Wii U) so much🤧

Ugly profile pic 📢alert pvp time!
Thanks so much for sharing!! This was very clear & detail!! This helps me in setting up my wii U!! Thank U so much & have a nice day!!
Thank U
It inspired Nintendo to improve with their Nintendo switch, I think the Wii U is very underrated
I'm getting a Wii u quite soon and I'm very excited!
I’m about to get a nintendo wii u in about 60-30 days because my first one I had it around like 5-7 years and it’s npw bricked so I might as well buy a new one. But I forgot how to set up a WiiU and i’m glad this video still got recommended for me so now i’m ready for the day I get my WiiU! :)
This was really helpful! Keep up the good work!
That pfp tho 😂
My 5 year old loves watching your videos ! Even though we don't have any of the game consoles 😁😁
Thank you from 2020 I'm planning on buying a Wii U by 2021 lol, that was really helpful thanks
This video is in detail and I love it and the video better than any other one. Thank You for making this video and you are my favorite CZcamsr of all time

I don't care what people say the Wii U never failed in my heart I honestly needed it and it was so much better than what kids have nowadays
The Wii U is a good console. It has a few issues, but most consoles do. I still play mine, almost every day. Good video, i'm sure some people will find this helpful when they pick up a Wii U and find out just how much fun can be had with this console.
Same but my Wii U Gamepad Batery *ALMOST BLEW UP*
I just got my Wii U yesterday and can’t get enough of Nintendo games. I have an xbox one s last 2017, a ps4 pro and a New Nintendo 3DS XL last year. This year its a Wii U and I’ll be getting a Switch when they update it to a newer model...just like all Nintendo consoles do.
TEDdotcom uh, the switch isn’t going to be upgraded. Nintendo formally announced it.
Omg your vids are the best they always help me on time my Nintendo switch froze u helped me thanks
This was surprisingly exciting to watch.
That’s so good keep up the good work
At first I thought this was a joke video but then I saw that you really went into detail
good for those who haven't touch this thing in years. Liked.
Thanks so much I was bored and wanted to plug in the Wii U and this helped me so much it was more simple than I thought and it all worked fine
Awesome vid thank you now I know how to use it and connect it.
Thank you so much i just got a wii u today and this was very helpful❤

This helped so much! I did this with my projector instead but my dad did all of the setting up for everything and I never knew how to do it and now that he left I needed help because I hadn’t had a single clue on what to do. This was super helpful and I’m grateful.
thank you! You explained everything very simply!
Watching your set up vids of game consoles is like my ASMR lol
Mine too
I already set up my Wii U and I’m still watching this
Same as me
Sameee since 2014
I don't even have a Wii u
Thanx for the through video set up of WiiU. I 'm planning on getting one this week and video was very helpful!
I play my switch and my wii u
No clue why but this is one of my comfort videos
Thanks Vince for sharing your knowledge.
Vince, your tutorial rocks!! My 7-year-old wanted Splatoon and we got him the Wii U and the game for his birthday. Watching your youtube made set-up quick and very easy. Thanks!
Thanks so much, glad you liked it :-)

This channel is so underrated
The Wii U can go up to 8 players and also there's a special controllers that look like the Wii remotes but have 8 lights on them instead of 4
What!HOW!
So the Switch and Xbox aren't the only ones... Good to know!

I've recently bought a Wii system for my kids. Being completely new to the world of game consoles, this video is absolutely perfect and is my go-to for referencing set-up. I wonder if you might advise how to open the cover that protects the ports at the top of the console (I have the same unit as shown in the video) it should be obvious, but I can't work it out.
It isn't in the Wii U (the focus of this video), It is only the original Wii and not the family system.
This one is a Wii U from 2012.
The one with the GameCube port is the original Wii 2006 (not to be confused with Wii Family Edition from 2011 which's drive isn't compatible with GameCube games and doesn't have those ports.)
(I dobut you're gonna do this, but I'm gonna tell you just in case. Both the Wii U and the Family Edition Wii can play GameCube games digitally through homebrew and with their non GameCube controllers. Yeah there aren't ports and supported disc drives but the hardware is fully compatible).
Then there's also the Wii Mini which is top loader and doesn't have access to the internet if I'm not wrong (again no matter which classic Wii you are going to use (so it doesn't apply to the Wii U, if not mistaken) can only go online with custom servers. You can use the Internet Browser with you actual connection on those systems, but it's so slow it's pratically unusable.
Don't know how it works with the Wii U.)
Ah and, like shown on the video, of course the Wii U can play original Wii games plus it's own games)
i dont even have a wii u and if i would have one i already know how to set it up i just find such videos fun keep up the good work
THANK YOU! You saved me a nervousw breakdown!
I'm watching this on a Wii U.

That monitor has more HDMI ports then my $3,000 plasma tv.

The Jolly Good Gamers wierd flex but ok
My ten year old tv has 4 HDMI but it came with another with only one
Sarmad Qureshi my tv does not have any HDMI ports only Composite lol
oof so i guess that if ur ok with 576i would be ur hdmi or u shud get a new tv
I'll never understand why this console kinda flopped, it was one of Nintendo's best for sure, I would've bought it if I could back at the time
Marketing sucked
You still can on Amazon I think
It was the best fail of nintendo, the game pad was too big and u can't go too far with the game pad, why, cuz it need to be near the base, welp this console really sucked
I never have a chance for having wii u... and i look this video... waw.. what a hustle.. im glad that they come up with nintendo switch... its a big game changing
!nice video for all people who buy a wiiu and dont know how to use it thank you!
I never heard of the wii u until 2 years ago and I love the gamepad the gamepad gimmick
