I am having this strange thing, my Wii u turns off automatically after I have played a(ny) game for about an hour.
I am using WiiSXR 2.3 Beta and it is installed as a channel on the NAND, just like this video:
It doesn't matter which game I play, the Wii U acts the same for every game. All the games are .iso and .cue files.
Is anyone familiair with the same problem?

Maybe the Wii U is getting hot ?
Since WiiSXR is an VC Inject and uses the "full Speed" of the Wii U´s CPU´s maybe the Console is overheating ?
Did you have checked the Fan is running ?

Good morning Alexander, thank you for your answer.
I can play any Wii U game for many hours without any problems (the console won't turn off).
For the Playstation games that I play I don't even run the sign_c2w_patcher, as the games run great without it.
Could it still be a fan problem in this case?
I will check it out though :-)

I got you.

You need to turn off the save energy settings in the wii u settings.

This happens because the wii u thinks it doesn’t get any controller inputs and turns off after exactly 1 hour
Thank you for your answer prince_h.
That sounds odd, but I think you might be right.
Kind of strange, as I am using the controller all the time, or does this have to do with the emulator hack?

I think it has to do specifically with how the wii u gamepad is coded as a controller.

Normal wii controllers for example won’t have this problem, since the wii u recognizes them as an active input

Thank you prince_h, I will try it and I think you have given me the solution I was looking for.
