Anyone have issues with Gamepad intermittently disconnecting? It just started a couple days ago, but there have been several times where the gamepad loses connection to the system mid game. At first I would get an error code on the Wii U, but now I don't, so I don't think it is a system issue but may be a gamepad issue. Just wanted to check here to see if anyone had an issue before calling Nintendo.
Pretty much me from Day 1 of owning the console. It seems to become less common the more I use my Wii U, and the further away I get, but that happens to almost all of my electronics in my house. Have you installed/bought anything that sends out a wireless signal recently? That could be contributing to your problems.

You have the right to disagree with me and the ability to consider anything valid that I say; Please exercise both.
it could be Electromagnetic interference, the place I'll move to has so much that I get connection errors on local multiplayer(3DS) by playing 1-2m away from the other players(I know it's interference because it only happens there, nowhere else) might be the case with your WiiU you might be in a bad place with too many wireless things around(or unexplainable interference some places have it)
goodbyes are a sad part of life but for every end there's a new beggining so one must never stop looking forward to the next dawn

I've had that happen about 20 ft, or so, away. Or, if I leave it alone... for long enough. The only other idea I might add, is you might be accidentally pressing the TV button.
Also does this if someone (including maybe yourself) puts their body between the Wii U and GamePad. Water kills the 5Ghz signal and your body is made of it. Same with metal, if you have a cabinet that's made of metal make sure the Wii U isn't too deep into the cabinet. If you're sure it's neither of these things contact Nintendo's support.
