I haven't tested nwm on node 6 yet. You might try cloning the repo directly, upgrading nan to a more recent version (npm install --save nan@latest) and then doing npm install -g in the repo. If that doesn't work, a few small src/nwm/nwm.cc edits might be needed to get it work with the latest nan. Happy to accept a PR if that works, otherwise I'll look into it when I have chance... which is probably a bit later.

@mixu, updating nan to latest version helped.

i'm have a same problem, but "nan" not helped me.
