Editing Wii U (section)

==Trivia==
*The Wii U is the only eighth-generation console to have complete backwards compatibility with its [[Wii|immediate predecessor]].
*The Wii U is the first home console with no native 4:3 support for any of its ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog series|Sonic]]'' games; some [[Xbox 360]] and [[PlayStation 3]] ''Sonic'' titles supported it (i.e. ''[[Sonic Unleashed]]'' and ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I]]'' and ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II|Episode II]]''), and all Wii ''Sonic'' titles supported both 4:3 and 16:9. If the Wii U is set to 4:3, all Wii U ''Sonic'' titles will be displayed in letterboxed widescreen on 4:3 displays. The Wii ''Sonic'' titles, on the other hand, can still be played in 4:3 on the Wii U as long as the system itself is set to 4:3.
*This is the final home console to have analog video support.
*The Wii U is [[Nintendo]]'s final home console since the [[Wikipedia:Super Nintendo Entertainment System|Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] to have a budget label; as of November 2022, no [[Nintendo Switch]] titles (including ''Sonic'' titles) have been re-released under the [[Wikipedia:Nintendo Selects|Nintendo Selects]] label.
*The Wii U would be Nintendo's final home console to include region locking for both physical and digital titles, whereas its successor, the Nintendo Switch, supports physical titles from other regions and allows for digital titles to be downloaded from other regions.
**Much like the [[Nintendo 3DS]], the Wii U eShop's region will always correspond to the region of the system, regardless of where it is used; if a North American user gets ahold of a European Wii U, they will still only have access to the European eShop.
