I want to say Wii U. This is a big deal for Nintendo, it had a monster day 1 update (and its down again today due to overwhelmed servers). And the software on that system is still very flawed.
Still like the system (skyword sword is great), but so far I've personally had these issues:
1. Wii U crashes when switching back from Wii mode, gives data corruption error
2. eshop frequently does not work (error 105-4256 even with manual IP)
3. DHCP sometimes works, making it difficult to diagnose. Going between screens will lose internet connectivity. (required manual setting + reserved IP at router to fix)
4. Netflix still just shows blank screens and plays audio from the HDTV port (not the only person with this) - but it shows the select menu just fine.
5. Very long load times
Games are transient things, but considering how widely shelves are overflowing with these things..... Bleh, I hope Nintendo gets it working - probably one of the video game companies I most want to succeed. And I'm still glad to have the system and expect a decent number of solid titles. It just seems like they should have taken a good OS (Linux, FreeBSD, who knows) instead of trying to roll their own at this point.
