This tag collects articles specifically for Nintendo Wii U owners who are troubleshooting their Gamepad, particularly those who may be using it in conjunction with a phone or mobile device. The content is aimed at users looking for practical, step-by-step fixes for common hardware and connection problems, without any unnecessary technical jargon.
The articles here address two main themes. First, there are several guides focused on restoring and maintaining the connection between the Gamepad and the console, such as how to fix connection issues and how to properly unsync a Gamepad.

You will also find a guide explaining what the port on the bottom of the Gamepad is actually for, as well as steps to activate the sensor bar.
