Silly random question. How do we know Hykem isn't trolling all of us. Has he released stuff for the scene before or is there anything else that vouches for his validity?
Totally not being insulting or anything I realize he could just be someone new to the scene as well. I was just curious and not familiar with any of the guys in the Wii U scene.

We're talking about someone who's been reverse engineering the IOSU this whole year.
He has been contributing to the http://wiiubrew.org/wiki almost daily
Yet it still has the old Wii Brew logo...
lol im sure someone could move the w and the i over and then copy the second i as the third i and then get rid of the original third i and have it be the wii u "u". boom. maybe ill ask my wife to do it if shes up to it later
but it is, but its execution is very limited/impracticable with it being dependent on a very small game being injected into another games save area......but just because it isn't real world practical doesn't mean it didn't happen.....it just means its not fit for real world usage but still serves as a PoC, the game is indeed loading from a USB hard drive....but with the IOSU exploit around the corner i don't think anyone should bother trying to find botchy hamfisted jobs to get USB loading working, as i said it was done more as a PoC rather than an real proposal for USB loading

If you want a better understanding of how the Wii U works, from my understanding, it's boot0 (which we've had for a while) -> boot1 (needs a special key nobody has) -> loads IOSU into the ARM processor, which starts initializing PowerPC -> Cafe OS is loaded and it starts loading the system menu. If you have access to ARM, you can skip most steps, IOSU on the ARM sets everything up, if you have access then you can do anything PowerPC side and a bunch of stuff ARM side too. Just modify memory from the ARM to add kern_read and kern_write and tada, loadiine, cafiine, tcpgecko all work. The OS isn't region specific so it should work across the board, unless it has weird buffer issues like ours does >.>
Also, since IOSU does all the hardware accessing, you can have SD and USB access in any app, access the raw data from the disc drive to dump it, and emuNAND. You *SHOULD* also be able to install your own titles then, so it can also have a permanent exploit.

there's nothing to charge back because the keys don't cost them money to generate in the first place -

@The Real Jdbye What don't you get? If someone use a stolen creditcard. Then sell said key on G2A. If I the dev sold the game key, I will get the charge back cost. That's how it works, it doesn't matter if I generate 300 keys if 300 of them are bought with stolen credit cards. I never said it was on Steam, but its the dev that gets hit. There is a ton of stories out there if you google it.+1
