If I have a basic Wii U set, can I transfer my data to a deluxe Wii U with the use of only one Wii U gamepad or do you require two game pads to complete the transfer?

HELP!!! Gamepad screen discoloration
I just noticed the there are "blobs" of color on my gamepad screen. There is one big purple "blob" and a smaller yellowish one close to it. They become visible when the screen is ON and displaying dark colors like black or blue, but don't really show on brighter displays. What are they? Will I have to repair and if so about how much would it cost?
Wanting to sell my Wii U, but not sure how digital downloads are handled..
I'm debating on selling my Wii U because I need the money for a new computer. I see lots of listings on eBay with people selling their digital downloads with the system and saw someone ask a question if the games are tied to the Nintendo ID, then won't they become unplayable when the seller removes it.. The seller responded that they have already removed their ID and the games are still playable. I've read on other websites and have gotten conflicting answers, so, I'd like to try it myself and see. I posted on another forum and was told that I can remove my Nintendo ID, but then will be required to call Nintendo support in order to put it back on the system. I'd like to list it and if it doesn't sell, giving me the opportunity to keep the system, log back in with my Nintendo ID to get my games back.
Hope that all makes sense. Any advice would be great. Thanks.
Deadzone too huge on gamepad and gamepad pro
I notice in First-person Shooter like Call of Duty Black OPs 2 and Deus Ex Human Revolution Director's Cut That you have to move the analog stick half way to start moving, which makes it feel "laggish".
I looked around other fourms and they noticed too. I'm surprised it hasn't been discussed here.
I tested both the gamepad(tablet) and the gamepad pro, and they both show the same issue.
I don't think it's a hardware issue but more of a software issue.
Please look in to it. Having this issue makes playing first player shooter unplayable.
Definition of "Deadzone":
[quote]'Deadzone' is the portion of an analogue stick's range that is ignored by the plugin, so any movement within this area does not register in a game.[/quote]
Wii U Gamepad Repair Questions
My repaired wii u is on its way back to my house and I was just wondering
1. Will they give me a new one or will it be the same broken one but with a different battery? The screen fell on a very hard surface, cracks all over and all wouldn't even turn on. It's shipped according to the status thing but also another question.
2. I typed in the ups outbound thing they gave me and it says they can't find my package. My mom recieved a messed up email to confirm but it contained nothing but the title.

What kind of adhesive is used on the Wii U gamepad's plastic screw covers?
So, one of the plastic screw covers has come off while using the gamepad. I have the plastic covering sitting in a cup right now so it doesn't get lost, but it appears that the adhesive used to hold it in place is shot. It seems like a trivial/easy enough repair to just re-attach the cover myself without having to send the gamepad away to be "repaired" by Nintendo, but I'm not exactly sure what adhesive is used to hold the cover in place. I'm thinking it might be rubber cement (based on how the old adhesive is now kind of a balled up rubbery thing), but I also know that rubber cement can also damage certain types of plastics. Out of curiosity does anyone know exactly what kind of adhesive Nintendo uses to hold these screw coverings in place?
I have an issue with my Wii U, hope to find solution here...
I've had the console since launch, and have had no real issues until now. I go to turn it on and it comes on, quick start menu, etc, but once I select anything it goes thru the typical loading, shows the Nintendo and Wii U logos. However, it will go no farther than the Wii U logo. After a few minutes the gamepad shows a message to hold the power button for 4 seconds or longer to force a shutdown. I do that. Console shuts down. I turn it back on, and it repeats the process. Is there anything that I can do to fix this or do I need to send it back to Nintendo for repairs??? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Wii Lan Adaptor not working.
Hello there.
I'm trying to set up a wired connection to the Wii U. I have the ethernet adaptor (non-Nintendo) plugged in my router and added the wired config into Wii U. When I test my connection it takes a long time and eventually shows the error code 103-1407: "Unable to connect to a network device"
Here's the info about the configs on Wii U:
Wired Connection, set as the preferred "Wi-Fi Network"
- Ip Address -> Don't auto obtain
- IP: 192.168.0.25 (doesn't conflict with anything)
- Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
- Gateway: 192.168.0.1
Everything matches with the config on my PC, which is plugged on the same router.
- DNS -> Don't auto obtain
- Primary DNS: 8.8.8.8
- Secondary DNS: 8.8.4.4
Also matches with my PC
- Proxy Settings -> Don't use
- MTU Value -> 1500
Now About the router. It's a DLink DIR-645.
Some extra info include:
- DMZ host set to the Wii U adaptor (192.168.000.25)
- Internet Connection type is DHCP (range of 100~199)
- MTU Value -> 1500
- UPnP IGD enabled
There are tons and tons of other configurations, but I'm not sure which of those are relevant to mention.
I really really tried everything I could find about this issue, and have been trying for weeks and wasted more than 20 hours on this. Even got a change of modem to a newer one which didn't change a thing.
Is anyone able to help me? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Problem with Wii U "deleting unnecessary data"
So I went into the data management part of settings on my Wii U yesterday sometime after the Nintendo Direct, and the system showed me a message that said something like: "The system has detected unnecessary data. Would you like to delete it? This process may take up to 30 minutes or more and cannot be canceled," so I proceeded with this deletion process. That was perhaps at 6 PM yesterday. It's 5:03 PM as I'm writing this. The deletion process hasn't ended, and it's nearing 24 hours since starting it. Obviously, it promps me to not turn off the system's power. I don't know what to do. I feel like it won't stop ever and that I'll have to power off the system, but if I power off the system, I might lose some data. I don't even know what data I might lose. My system might even get bricked, although that might be a bit extreme.
Wii U not reading Wii games anymore
I would like to know if there's any solution to my problem (hopefully not shipping my Wii U back to Nintendo for repairs). Around summer time, I was able to play my Skyward Sword game in my Wii U, but now it also has the problem of not reading any original Wii disc. The Wii U will atempt to read it, but stops and says there is no disc to read. I haven't done anything to the console except for playing the compatible Wii U games, making sure it is updated and play downloaded games.
Surround Sound Issue
This is a rather odd issue that I can't seem to determine an exact cause for. I have working pcm5.1 coming from the Wii U and it sounds great in Monster Hunter, but onto the issue...
Any time I shut the console off and turn it back on after an hour or so, the sound will be stuck in stereo and will refuse to output in surround even when changing sound output settings back and forth.
I have found the only way to fix this problem is to switch video outputs from HDMI to non-HDMI and change it back again afterward, I guess to "refresh" it. After this I can finally set sound output back to surround to get 5.1 again (until the console is powered off for an extended period of time once more).
Oddly if I turn the console off and back on shortly after, this issue does not exist. It only seems to happen after the console has been off for a while. Anybody know what might be causing this and how to avoid this unnecessary hassle? I have multiple devices hooked up to an HDMI switch, however they functional correctly without having to jump through these extra hurdles.
Here is my setup:
TV

Surround Receiver

Need help with external hard drive Wii U
I ordered a new Bufalo external hard drive for my Wii U just a bit ago and now not sure if it will work. I know Nintendo says they recommend it to have its own power source which the one I ordered does but I noticed differences bewteen the one I got and the one they recommend.
Here is the Buffalo they recommend http://www.buffalo-technology.com/en/urunler/depolama-cihazlari/harici-depolama/drivestationtm/hd-lbu3-drive-station-external-usb-3-0-hard-drive/
and the Buffalo I got http://www.buffalotech.com/products/desktop-hard-drives/drivestation/drivestation-axis-velocity
The things I noticed different are the SATA and connector type are different between the two. Will the one I got work or should I cancel the order? Hoping to get an answer as soon as possible. Any other info will be greatly appreciated thanks
TVii not finding Provider (Canada)
I live in Southern Ontario and have Bell satellite, I have set up the gamepad to connect to my TV and reciever but I cannot get TVii to recognise Bell as a provider. I have tried my postal code and literally dozens of others from around the province and country, I must have spent two hours attempting to have bell list as a provider with no luck. This is especially frustrating as I have read of others who see Bell listed though they do not use bell (and forums don't allow people to post their postal codes for reference)
This is very frustrating.
How do I transfer data on Wii U to SD card?
Bought a new SD card for my Wii/Wii U. I have game data on my Wii U hard drive that I want to move to my new SD card. How do I do this? I looked online and couldnt find what I need. Everything but what I need I found. Thanks
Wii U Gamepad frozen on Nintendo logo
Hello,
I just bought a Wii U/Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Set. I followed the instructions in the Quick Start Guide and made it through without any problems; I played Mario Kart for a little while, and then watched a movie on Netflix. I turned the console off afterward; now, a few hours later, the console turns on and brings me to a "Start with this user" screen. Unfortunately, I cannot proceed any further, because my gamepad does not respond - it sits at a white screen with a Nintendo logo and does nothing. No buttons work, the touch screen doesn't respond to anything, the Home button doesn't respond. All I can do is hold the Power button until it turns off, and try again, to no avail.
I've been searching around on Google for an hour now (with the gamepad on, just in case it is actually loading something), and haven't been able to find any help at all...
Any help would be much appreciated.

New gamecube controllers for Wii U
Good morning everyone,
Does anyone know if the new gamecube controllers will be compatible with the Wii U Virtual Console Wii emulator? I have yet to transfer my library of virtual console games from my Wii to my Wii U because I cannot use the gamepad or wii u pro controller to play them if I do (really ridiculous of nintendo on their part in not even allowing an update to do so).
Another question,
Does anyone know if nintendo will ever release an update so that I do not have to buy a whole new controller wii controller to play my virtual console games on my wii u if I were to transfer my games onto my wii u? It's just realy ridiculous how I cannot play Majoras Mask or other N64 games with a wii u pro controller.
Thank you,
JV
How do I load saved game files on sd card in wii mode wii u

Also after I get the files loaded and play more how do I make sure the game saves on the sd card. The reason they are on there now is because I transferred them from the internal Wii U memory to the SD card. Please help I want to play Mario!!
