[QUOTE="leejaclane, post: 10193973, member: 603196"] This has probably been suggested before, maybe there's even already a plugin for Aroma for it, but what about a replacement menu interface for the Wii U? Is that even possible? Like a "Simple Wii U Menu" or something. Feel free to use that as the name if you make one, or use a different name, I mean if you make it you'd obviously get to name it. My thoughts are something like a list of all apps that you can scroll through, as well as category pages for them -- Wii U games, system & settings applets, Wii VC (which could have sub-categories for official eshop ones and injected ones), N64 VC (again with sub-categories), homebrew apps, and custom categories, as well as maybe a recently used category. It could be a plugin that replaces the normal Wii U menu, and with an option to turn icons on or off for the apps listed (the icons would display beside their titles), as well as having a search function and sorting function. Ideally you'd also be able to set it to display something closer to the normal Wii U menu, the way Wii loaders like USB Loader GX can display the Wii channel layout to look like it does on Wii. But you'd be getting rid of folders and replacing them with categories, categories which can overlap like the groups on Switch or on Steam so that if you had a Mario category and a Multiplayer category, Super Mario 3D World and all the others could show up in both. It also wouldn't be a bad idea if this went hand in hand with that often-suggested bypassing of the 300 title limit (has that been implemented in Aroma?) -- I know a lot of people don't care about that, I don't really care about it myself since the Wii U has so few games and I don't tend to do a lot of injections, the 2 TB HDD I got seems wasted on Wii U. But maybe just doing a totally different menu interface like this would already bypass the 300 title limit anyway? I don't know how it works to be honest. All of that is probably very ambitious though, I only bring up the idea because I was planning to loan the Wii U to friends for a bit and realized that when they make user profiles they're not going to have everything neatly sorted into folders. Alphabetizing helps, I know there's a sorter for that, but they'd still have to wait for icons to load on each page and scroll sideways through the pages and highlight each one to actually see its title if they don't recognize it just from the icon. It'll be tedious for them. It's just an idea though, I'm not expecting anything to come of it, I only wanted to say "wow, wouldn't this be neat?" [/QUOTE]
