Despite being connected to the internet, and verifying it, every time I attempt to download the wii transfer program on the Wii U, it times out and I get an error code (don't have it at hand) and a message saying that I am unable to download it.
This is very very frustrating. I got my Wii U yesterday, and just keep getting nailed with freezes, timing out, and error codes. Is there some sort of issue with the nintendo shop at the moment? And my Wii U is about a foot from the router.
