I am trying to keep everything organized but I am running out of boxes. Anyone else running into that problem?

People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

I imagine it will make more when needed just like on 3DS.

It still puzzles me why they haven't added a folder option like the 3DS has.

Maybe they knew they wouldn't need one because the Wii U was DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO- oh look a kitty!

The Wii U menu automatically adds more pages, so I'm not clear on the problem here.

Just like the 3DS did so unless you've dl everything on the eshop you should be fine.

The problem is that I am not able to keep my games organized. The first page I have Downloadable Retail games, Mii Maker, Wii Mode and Video Streaming services. (takes about 10 boces) Then the next two pages were eShop only titles (games that aren't available retail) which is about 22 boxes. The 3rd and 4th pages are NES VC Titles, about 16 boxes. The 5th page is SNES VC Titles, about 12 boxes. The last page/ 6th page is stuff I rarely touch such as Daily Log, Parental Controls, Wii Street U, System Settings, Wii U Chat, and Health and Safety Information. (6 Boxes) Which brings me to a grand total of 66 Boxes out of 90 are full. I am getting to the point where I may not be able to keep everything organized, which I am disappointed about

Wow um yeah if this clearly upsets you have some problems that you might want to get checked out. It's not the end of the world. Besides you can just click and drag the icons to where you want them and you can expanded how many pages each thing takes up. Like page 1 and 2 are NES VC games Pages 3 and 4 are eShop games etc. that's all. Clearly its nothing to get upset about.

Maybe upset was the wrong word... maybe I should have said disappointing. On 3DS, thanks to the folder, I can keep my games orginized very easy. (plus there are 8 pages of 15 boxes each page)

Not really. I have enjoyed each of these games. If I didn't enjoy them I would delete them. I am not saying all these games are rated 9 out of 10 because I believe anyone that lets reviews determine what games they play is missing out on a bunch of great games (maybe except a couple of VC games I haven't played yet, lol)

@DefHalan: Ok yeah disappointed sounds better then upset. For some reason I was picturing like foaming at the mouth and ripping your hair out over this.

As I said earlier it puzzles me that they have the folders for 3DS but not Wii U.

totally agree, I wonder if it will add more pages when/if I get an external Hard Drive. I am running out of hard drive space.

That kinda makes sense. I can see having the amount of pages change depending on the size of your hard drive. I would think that a bigger HD would add more pages then a smaller one.

They'll probably add folders. Those didn't show up on 3DS until later.

Nope.
I dont go digital unless I absolutely have to on Nintendo hardware and all the VC and indie games I'm looking forward to haven't been released yet.

I don't see why people have to be mean to @DefHalan in this thread. I ran into this problem at one point, as I like to have my NES, SNES, eShop games on separate pages, but there was one point where just before it added another page I had to share one of the pages for eShop / NES games. I know, not a big deal, but for people who like things to be organized it can be a bit annoying.

They should have just added folders for the Wii U right off the bat. If it's something they're going to have to do eventually, why not just do it in the first place and get it done and over with? So, as far as folders go, the sooner the better. Disappointing they haven't added it in by now. Again, not a big deal, but a minor annoyance.

I gave up on organizing my games into sections. The front page has the disc channel, Mii Maker, Wii U Chat, System Settings, Activity Log, Wii Menu, then retail downloads in the rest of the spaces, followed by download only, then VC, and all the smaler apps like Uplay and Wii Street U after the last of my VC games. Lastly, the health warning and parental controls are on the last page.

Even with the folders on 3DS, I do it the same way. I'd honestly want a size option that changes how many are on each page. All the features similar to 3DS, will presumable all be added at the same time, if at all. They'll probably do this eventually.
