If your connection sucks like mine, you'll probably be waiting a while when it updates. To update go to the system settings, go to the 2nd to last option (should be the update option) and click it. Then click Yes or Ok or whatever it says and start the update. If you have a fast connection you can get it like Mex did in 40 minutes. If it's slow like mine, you should probably wait until you're done playing for the night to update.

This is the first of two firmware updates to up the performance of the Wii U's OS. The next one is due out in the summer.

The details of what the update does is below.

You have to initiate it yourself.

To update go to the system settings, go to the 2nd to last option (should be the update option) and click it. Then click Yes or Ok or whatever it says and start the update.

Is it any good?  I really only use the WiiU for COD, no miiverse or netflix.

It really helps when starting up one of the apps or a game or going back to the main menu. You might as well just get it.
