Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 0 comments
To register a Nintendo Network ID for your child on the Wii U, you’ll need to fork over a one-time fee of $0.50. Parents need to carry out this process for children under the age of 13. This goes in line with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
To complete registration, you’ll need to input credit card information. Nintendo assures consumers that information isn’t stored on the Wii U or any server. As a result, you’ll have to re-enter credit card information for eShop usage.

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
After tearing down the Wii U console, it would appear some folks have managed to discover some details about the Wii U’s RAM.
The console is apparently making use of 2GB of Samsung DDR3 memory. It runs at a max speed of 17GB/s.
How does that stack up to other consoles? The PlayStation 3 runs at 25.6GB/s while the Xbox 360 runs at 22.4GB/s:
360: 22.4 GB/s + eDRAM for framebuffer
PS3: 25.6 GB/s main memory BW + 22.4 GB/s graphics memory BW, no eDRAM
Wii U’s eDRAM amount as well as speed are currently unknown.
