How would I go about installing a rom of Xenoblade X onto my modded Wii U? I don't have the disc, I found the file online, and when I tried to put it on my sd card for installation, it said it was too large for FAT32. What can I do about this?

Then it's the wrong type of file for installation. You need Wup installable files that you put on your sd card and install it to your external hdd or internal. Inside the folder they should say .app and they're all small files less than 4 gb individiually. Google 'Wii U USB Helper reddit workaround"

No, I told you how to do it. WUX has to be converted to WUP the installer is called WUP installer and it's the only way to install games to your Wii U thus you have to have WUP files. It's not that hard to follow a tutorial and use Wii U USB Helper. If you have any questions about it ask, but I told you to use it for a reason.

Sorry for the confusion, I guess. I figured it out, but there wasn't much to go off of in the application itself.

    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
