I just wan't to try if the localhost work...

and I think the wii u have to be connected to the net...:(
Yes, your Wii U must have internet settings input on your console. But with Nintendo's URLS or your Wii U's MAC address blocked, you can still access your local server.

Only recently I see people recommending staying on 3.1.0... Is there an exploit available for it not available for 5.3.2? What am I missing here?
I think there's an old IOSU exploit for 3.1.0 that has been patched in newer FW, so it's just one more backdoor if somebody ever decides to do something with it.

How to do that?

Follow part 2 of the guide lol. Each router is different though, so I can't say where in your router settings you will find a MAC filter or URL filter, if yours even supports them. My MAC filter is in Parental Controls, and URL filter is under Firewall.

Sorry for kinda being off-topic but is there a reason this IOSU exploit was never released if it's been patched? I'm sure there's quite a number of people still on 3.1.0 that could make use of it.

I honestly know nothing about it, aside from its apparent existence and the fact that Hykem may have it.

Hey, I'm completely new to Wii U stuff - is this an actual hack for the Wii U? Or is it just for vWii? After reading everywhere on this forum that the Wii U is not hacked yet I am guessing the latter but I don't seem to see any mention of the vWii in this thread. Thanks for your patience and sorry if this is an annoying question :-)

The Wii U has been hacked, to varying degrees, for a long time, since May of last year. Since this August, one of our PPC kernel exploits has been public, allowing you to do game mods and memory edits.

So, it's possible but the team doesn't want to do it? Will it happen in the future?

    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
