    Who still uses a physical Wii?

    I do. I have an old Sony Wega CRT in my bedroom and a Wii with component cables really puts it to good use. Especially when using emulators with the 240P Doublestrike option.

    Help -- Wii U no longer loading games since upgrading to tiramisu

    Either missing sigpatches OR you do not have Tiramisu auto booting. What happens when you launch the health and safely screen? Do you get a warning about running the environment twice? Do games work after launching H&S?

    Can Anybody Help Me With An Issue When Trying To Hack My Wii U?

    Something is definitely wrong. Either the SD card slot is damaged or the SD card has an issue. Try formatting the card with the SD Card Formatter tool from sdcard.org: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter/ Since it is a 32GB card it will format as FAT32 by default with the tool...

    Original Gamecube controller won’t work on Wii nintendont

    What the heck is a "wii port"? And, if this is a Wii, why is this being posted in the Wii U section?

    Can Anybody Help Me With An Issue When Trying To Hack My Wii U?

    When I initially modded my first Wii U (using the guide) my card would not work either. I was using an 8GB SD card...kingston I believe. I tried with a 4GB ADATA card with the exact same files/config and it worked. What I have learned from this instance (and others over the course of time using...

    Homebrew Nintendo releases 11.17.0-50

    I find it absolutely ridiculous as everyone else does that Nintendo decided to give one last FU (or maybe this is not the last?) in the form of an update to patch exploits on a damn system that has not been available for purchase for three years. It's bad enough that these are being scalped for...

    Homebrew [RELASE] WiiUDownloader - Multiplatform alternative to Wii U USB Helper

    That is a shame. I have not followed up on the 3DS shop for a long time and that is sad to hear. Anyway, back on topic. I have been using your tool to archive the entire USA set and started the process yesterday evening at 6PM. It was running rock solid into around 3AM this morning. When I...

    Homebrew [RELASE] WiiUDownloader - Multiplatform alternative to Wii U USB Helper

    This application is truly a work of art. Simple with the options you need. I appreciate the fine coding! Do you plan on writing one for the 3DS shop? That is, if you haven't done so already and I am just not aware of it ;)

    Homebrew Error 199-9999 when trying to launch homebrew

    This comes from SD cards that are not "fully" compatible with the Wii U. For example, I have a 4GB Toshiba SD card that came with a 2DS console that works in a Wii U *sometimes*. It worked for installing Tiramisu and dumping the nand, and works sometimes for auto launching the payloader. BUT...

    Hacking cloning wii U USB HDD?

    Really glad to hear that it works and I thank you for testing. I suspected it would but it is excellent to have an actual test performed. I have used it in the past to create images of drives as well as straight up clone. It's nice to store a full disk image if you have the space too. ALSO...

    Hacking cloning wii U USB HDD?

    Old thread I know, but perhaps HDD Rawcopy would work: https://hddguru.com/software/HDD-Raw-Copy-Tool/ I used this tool to image an Xbox formatted hard drive (2TB) to another 2TB drive. The file system on the drive is xbox specific and not recognizable by any PC, so similar situation. If...

    Wii Problem. Very Odd Component Cable Trouble.

    Strange. I have encountered many things with Wii consoles over the years but the inability to use component cables was certainly never one of them.

    Wii Problem. Very Odd Component Cable Trouble.

    You need to take a step back before opening things and "fixing" things that you think are just "broken" for some reason. You most likely either have: 1. A defective component cable 2. A TV that is not properly accepting the signal 3. A TV that has an issue with the component connectors 4. Not...

    Odd Wii homebrew behavior (Red Mario Wii)

    Well, it's been many many years since I have used an original Wii. I used to write software for this thing ;) Anyhow, while I have a Wii U modded of course with the vWii side of things modded, I wanted an original Wii again for the bedroom where I have a Sony Wega CRT on order to take advantage...
