Things I've learned this week by following @OutofPrintArchive:

1. Your Wii U can be bricked by long periods of disuse. Leaving your console powered off can cause its NAND flash storage to become corrupted.

2. The e-shop for the Wii U and 3DS will shut down this month.

None of this is good news, of course. It's bad news, but bad news worth knowing.

I'm not sure how true this is. I've got two myself. One is my modded US 32GB model, and the other is my brother-in-law's non-modded JP 32GB model that he gave me.

I'd love to test and see how they compare since I haven't powered on either in over a year. The article seems to suggest a modded is safe. Does anyone know if this is the case?

While the JP one is really just a backup/spare parts system, I'd like to preserve it in case my US one goes down. I wasn't looking to mod it since it's a spare, but unless there is a way to back it up other than modding it, I might just have to do it.

The unfortunate thing is that the JP one is in the basement, and I still can't lift anything too heavy since I recently had a / a little over 2 weeks ago. I'll have to dig it out as soon as I can to check it out.
