FYI:

This useragent:

Mozilla/5.0 (Nintendo 3DS; U; fr) Version/1.7455.US

Entered here:

http://www.tera-wurfl.com/explore/

Produces this error:

nintendo_wii_browser
Not Found
The requested document was not found on this server.

On my server, through the PHP API, with the 2.2 wurfl.xml, it breaks with errors. If I install the 2.1.1 wurfl.xml, it works without error. I created a patch file with nintendo_wii_browser and nintendo_wii_browser_subua devices from the 2.1.1 wurfl.xml, and then reinstalled 2.2 wurfl.xml with the patch file, and the error no longer occurs.

Indeed, there is an issue with Nintendo user agents that has been fixed in the upstream APIs. They will be released in the coming days to address this problem.
