Game preservation communities attempting to fix dying Wii U consoles are discovering that the lifespan of the console might just be a matter of luck.
Over the weekend, YouTuber Voultar documented their efforts to bring "unrecoverable" Wii U consoles back to life after reports that not using the machine for a lengthy period of time could contribute to its untimely demise. As the system's eShop approaches its close, those reports sparked notable concern, as players would lose access to its games as well as the ability to buy them.
