Hello, my friend just bought a Wii U, I hacked it and everything, is ready to install games.

Now, I have my whole collection of games installed on mine, we don't want to break the internet by downloading 700GB of games.. (or the contract with my ISP lol)

Is there a way to extract my installed games into an installable format, alla Disc2App program?

Thanks

If you don't have the discs, then you have to re-download them using something like Wii U USB Loader. I highly doubt you have any need for 700GB of games though. The Wii U didn't have 700GB of good games.

I do have the discs :D went tru that process once TOO FREAKING SLOW. I was thinking that maybe dumping them from the HDD would be faster!

To my knowledge, if you can rip installed games from a HDD, it would have to be on the console itself and to the SD card.

Basically the answer to your first question is no, unless you rip all of the discs (legit) yourself with disc2app.

I mean In theory should be the exact same, something like DDD but modified to dump the specific title to the SD Card... remember when you used to use that program to dump your digital titles to SD for its use with Loadiine? Yeah, I was thinking something like that but converting it to APP files ready to install somewhere else...

Maybe @FIX94 knows what I'm talking about!

DDD may work, but over the network is slow, and it needs interaction per title, right?

Yes it does, you open the title, it gets stuck forever while its dumping the game files... and then when its done, it boots the game normally... (I don't remember if DDD was over network or SD Card) I would love to see a mod of that making it dump digital titles.... into App files

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So that version is semi rare
