Gameranx said, "At this point, the Wii U just can’t catch a break. Sales projections have been missed by significant margins since its launch in late 2012, and recently, it was announced that Nintendo would be skipping out on its yearly E3 press conference in favor of smaller, less risky Nintendo Directs. So, as you’ve probably guessed, we’re not here to deliver any good news. According to the Wii modding website WiiKey, the Wii U has been cracked."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
With the server shutdown for Nintendo Wii U and 3DS, TSA say goodbye to the small communities and remember the times spent online with these consoles.
Thanks to the modding scene... people can still take their 3ds/WiiU online.

I might actually buy a WiiU now but on a serious note. This is really bad for nintendo. Unlike MS or Sony. People treat nintendo consoles as secondary devices. So let say a player hacks their WiiU and nintendo bans them from their online services. That player will most likely not give a crap. Microsoft or sony users on the other hand would be really hesitant to hack their consoles since online is a huge part of them. Their friend list, netflix,psplus and much more will be cutoff. So nintendo better hope this is just one big lie because right now. They honestly don't have anything to hold against their users to stop them from hacking their device.
Lol!
Ya, I'm not really into stealing and modding foolishness. These people are a bunch of 10 year olds who strive to ruin online play. Hopefully with system updates and patches, we can keep them from hacking Mario Kart.
No homebrew though, says the article at least. So you'd have to borrow/rent all the games you wanted to have locally.
EDIT: Not saying I support or don't support the modders, just speaking on topic.
if Wii U sales increase you know why
