Hey, guys! So, I acquired my Wii U about one year ago and ever since I've had a few problemas. It started with those freezes that sometimes made the Wii U make a loud noise. I then found the solution to solve it, by limiting the Miiverse languages.

However, since one of its crashes, my Gamepad has been having a really weird problem and I've dealed with it for months, but now I'm really tired of it and I want help to solve the issue.

Here is the video of the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ispfmZIUm0s

Basically, whenever doing anything that requires a connection with the actual Wii U, the gamepad screen twitches like this, timely. It doesn't happen when, for instance, I turn the gamepad on right before choosing to go to the Wii U menu, which made me realize this has something to do with the gamepad connection to the Wii U.

Does anyone know of a way to fix this? Thanks in advance

how far away is the GamePad from the Wii U?

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

Really close, a meter at best. But it happens even if the gamepad is right next to the Wii U.

What other devices are near your Wii U or GamePad

That shouldn't be happening, bro! Call Nintendo Support and/or the place where you bought it to see if they can fix it or replace it for free because that should not happen AT ALL!

At any rate, have a good one! :D

Not much. The DVD player and the cable TV box, pretty much. But I've played on the Wii U in other places and it happens anyway, so I don't think that's the problem.

Do you use wireless N on your wi-fi? If it's using the 5 GHz range I think that overlaps with the gamepad frequency, could be worth changing the channel it operates on to see if that helps...

I think that might be it, given what happens... How can I change that?

EDIT: I just remembered that, as I said, I've tried using the Wii U on other places (other houses) and the same issue happened. So I don't think that is it.
