How can I do that? When I try to disable standby functions it wants to disable the quick start menu. I should clarify that I don't really care about alerts, but I do want to prevent the console from auto-updating the firmware. I didn't really see how to do that.
Go to System Settings. Then to Power Settings. Then to Quick Start Menu. Then Wii U Gamepad Alerts. Select 'no".
Then you won't get any more alerts.
I just tried to disable my Standby Functions as well, and I got a similar message about it also disabling my quick start menu. So I don't know what to say about that one. I don't care if it updates while the system is off, I'm fine with it. But does anyone else have any ideas?
I'm really digging this. Love how hitting the home button brings up the QS menu instantly and you can just jump right into a game. It's especially nice if you have a big library of digital games. (Which I do.)
My only problem with it is because of all the "non-gaming" stuff I've been doing while playing almost nothing but Mario Kart 8 I get all these random apps on it. System Settings, Friends List, MiiVerse, Statistics, Internet Browser, eShop, Downloads. I don't need quick access to those things. It should exclude most if not all of those basic system apps.

"Don't stir the pot" is a nice way of saying "they're too dumb to reason with"
Here's another good one. When you boot up the quick start menu and click on the button to go to the full Wii U menu, it does not take you to the Wii U menu. Instead it takes you a screen saying "from here you can go to the Wii U menu." Um, yeah, that's why I clicked that. Then you hit the button again and you're in.
At first I thought this was just a one-time tutorial, but no, you see that 'tutorial' page every single time. Does Nintendo not understand UI design, or what's ... What's going on here?
It's a safety question, similar to "Are you sure want to do that? Yes/No". At least the new button is at the same spot, so it just to rehit again. The quick start is quick, getting out of the quick start isn't that quick.
i wish we could have it so the notification ringtone goes off when a friend messages us on miiverse too. would make setting up kart races easier instead of using my phone.
The Logs app has been updated too.
The start screen has changed slightly, the lay out is a little different, and you can check the logs of other profiles on your WiiU.
YES, thank you, Nintendo! ^_^ Games have been moving away from the simple "put the game in, press the power button, play games" idea for far too long, so, to see Nintendo actually taking steps to go back to that? Awesome. Just pure awesome.
Sorry to hear it's not working for some people, though.

To be completely honest, I don't really understand the point of the Quick Start Menu.
I hope you're joking. If you're not, let me tell you why quick start menu is such a big deal. Instead of waiting 1 whole minute to access the game, we can now get into the action in 20 seconds.
However if you're a physical person (like me), then yeah this quick start menu is not that big of a deal since you need to change disc anyways. But I do play a lot of VC games, so to me the quick start menu is awesome.
the quick start menu = GREAT saves soo much time lol
Not as much for me since I decided to require a password when about to use a title. I put it so my siblings won't get to play whenever they feel like it. They'll have to ask me instead.

I never used it before, but given my daughter's penchant for getting up an hour before me it's nice to be able to keep tabs on how much she's playing when I'm asleep. I think more parental options like being able to set a timer on play to say, enforce a break after an hour, would be great.
