I've been in my friendd house all day playing th out of it and I just entered the eShop by randomness, it's telling us to update, I'm in 5.5.3 and my console is american region, dafuq. It's not even the usual "couldn't download update" that appears in the Download Management in every hacked Wii U even if it's updated. It's on the eShop.

I updated on a spare Wii U that was already hacked, and all the hacks still work.
I've not tried updating THEN hacking yet.


USBHelper still works as well, so it was not an ESHOP security patch either.

Maybe it really was just a stability patch?

Functionality is still there and everything works, but I was forced to re-install all the games. Keep that in mind if you are to update.

    @SylverReZ, cuz of lag?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No. Whenever you use the internet on Windows, Microsoft collects personal data and installs bloatware that isn't necessarily needed, such as Edge.

    I recall @impeeza mentioned some trick about not having bloatware when installing windows where you set up your country to "world" or smh like that

    Yes, you can debloat the operating system, but in some cases for me it just reinstalls them.

  • impeeza @ impeeza:
    @Xdqwerty yes, when you are installing Windows on the first steps you are asked for your current location, you MUST to select «international» so no bloatware is installed, because the bloatware is location based. if this night I have some time I will setup a VM and take screenshots.

    @BigOnYa, RealPlayer is spyware too.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Psionic Roshambo, Yeah, BonziBuddy was both spyware and ad-ware. It collected children's personal information without consent as well as display fake Windows popups.
