i bought a second hand wii u that has been soft modded to play games from a sd card but i found out you cant play these games online so i bought call of duty from cex but at first the disc would not even insert into the drive it , was almost as though there wasnt enough strength to drag the disc in! but , eventually after a bit of pressure it went in but says invalid disc.

do i need a new drive?
is it simple to change?
should i get my money back? it was £100 and the guy said i could have money back . he also said he had never even played a disc on it as he had all games downloaded.
im worried if i return it i wont be able to mod another wii myself ......
cheers for reading

It's less of molding and more of literally entering a URL. Anyway there's some slightly more advanced things and you can install these games to your home menu with online Play! ^_^

If you have a ton of storage (sd card or usb) why not keep it! I know by browsing the Temp in the Wii.U section you can find some important links! I'll edit the post if I find some.

This is definitely something to look at: http://gbatemp.net/threads/wii-u-usb-loading-install-wiiu-games-to-usb-or-internal-memory.445514/ ! It'll pretty much give ya the method and info. I recommend waiting for a bit though because it's still buggy and in development.

    I cant justify $1k+ on a nice ass phone. I can spend that on a 75" tv screen. Why a 6" screen device cost me the same? lol

    I can justify a decent $800 smartphone that'll last 3 years when I could get a 65" TV for $400 and buy a decent micro computer for $100 more
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tbf there are decent $400 smartphones in today's market that make top end spec phones unjust it's just what you want
