The Wii U's security has been compromised. A modding group known as "venom" has hacked the Wii U Key allowing games to be dumped onto the system. The Wii U key enables piracy and doesn’t allow users to modify the system. Nintendo confirmed the instance in a statement stating, “that a hacking group claims to have compromised Wii U security”


The first game dumped onto the system was The Avengers: Battle for Earth, which takes up 23 GB. It looks like every game is padded to fill out the disc, and it's not clear if Nintendo can remove content at this stage.
