Hey so I just found an SNES classic. Is it worth installing the Hakchi thing? Does it gently caress up the UI?

the gyro controls are pretty good for a console shooter.

I’ve never played Splatoon despite having a Wii U and a Switch but man I really like gyro aiming after using it in the new Zelda with the bow. It’s super intuitive to make those broad motions with the stick then fine tune with some wrist wiggle. I went to play the new Monster Hunter on my Xbone as a bowgun guy and kept getting irritated gyro aiming wasn’t working.

So if Zelda is ripping off the Splatoon controls then yeah, they good.

Hey a couple pages back there was something about updating your 3DS breaking the SD reader? Is this still true? If so what do I do to prevent it other than not update?

Hakchi2 main build now has all the features from the other forks, just go with that. Automatically does everything you need. https://github.com/ClusterM/hakchi2/releases

Only problem is it will brick your new NES Classic

Yeah there’s a new fork call Hakchi 2 CE that’s compatible with the new ones. I flashed two with it.

Well with my GameCube adapter coming with Smash. Guess I’ll finally hack my Wii U. Anything I need to do to get started other than buy Brain Age or something? It’s safe to update to get access to the shop right?

Got my GameCube controllers and adapter coming from Amazon that I preordered a long time ago to use with Switch Smash.

Anyway I think it's time to mod my Wii U. Gonna buy Brain Age and follow
https://wiiu.hacks.guide/

So from what I am seeing you can now just "inject" Gamecube games to the Wii U homescreen?

https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-wiivc-injector-script-gc-wii-homebrew-support.483577/

I assume I have to also do the VWii mod for this to work right?
https://wiiu.hacks.guide/vwii-modding

Maybe also install that Nintendont program and load in in VWii before I go injecting?

Also I have a huge Wii U Library of games I've bought so I don't really need a huge USB hard drive, since I'm not planning on pirating Wii U poo poo (I think I have every game of worth except Donkey Kong) so a USB drive stuck in the back will work just fine for installing some Wii Games and maybe a Wii U game or two?

If you want Nintendont on your Wii U main screen and don't want to mess around with vWii:

Download loader.dol and rename it boot.dol
Also download meta.xml and icon.png
Create SD/apps/Nintendont/ and put those three files in there
ISOs go in SD/games

Install the forwarder for the Wii U homescreen guide:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbQHxQcfb4Y
(you'll need wup installer to do that)

Does this mean I never have to hack my Vwii?

Also where is the forwarder? Is that the thing you find on the Wii U USB helper when you search Nintendont?

Also where did you find that .dol and files. Could I have a link to the thread? Or is that just the standard one not a special one needed to work with the forwarder?

If I want to play old Wii backups can I do that from the Wii U menu or do I need to mod vWii?

Check the YouTube discription for the forwader


You can make a usbgx forwarder or whatever you want to use to play Wii games using this or if you want to make individual GameCube or Wii games/homebrew forwarders

You don't have to hack your vWii to get it to work

Yeah I found that injector and was gonna use that for my GC games. But from what I’ve read usbgx is a vWii thing. I don’t have to install that?

I don't think so, the Nintendont forwader sacrifices USB support to be able to use the tablet as a controller

Oh. The whole reason I’m modding is because my GC controllers and adapters came in.

Well poo poo

So I'm going down the list on https://wiiu.hacks.guide/get-started and just ran into trouble

where it says

16. Copy the contents of the NNU-Patcher .zip to the root of your SD card

there's already a info.json and a manifest.install in my root from step 13. Copy the contents of the WUP Installer GX2 .zip to the root of your SD card

Anyone have any clue?

edit: well poo poo theres an info.json and manifest.install in the mocha.zip too

Edit: everything works fine

I swear I have launched a gamecube game from the wii u home screen and used the mayflash usb hub to play it with a gamecube controller. I'm not at home so I can't verify but I'm almost certain I did that.

It’s working just fine actually. I’m launching nintendont using a forwarder from the main screen and my game cube controller works fine. I injected the game as well to launch from home screen and it still works as well.

When you launch Nintendont or whatever just make sure when it asks if you want to use the Gamepad say no.

Lol yeah we stopped giving a poo poo about that years ago. It’s probably just bad form to hotlink files directly.

Anyway I think the biggest one is called 3DS ISO.
