I don't wanna use RedNand or any other CFW or something like that.
Is there a way I can install Virtual Console to USB or Sysnand like I can with normal Games and the WUP installer?

jeez that coloring...

You have to use a cfw to install vc games. cfw can be used on sysnand and is very recommended. Booting cfw is as easy as booting one of the elfs on this page

I saw that (who could miss it?). Just putting out a suggestion if he really doesn't want to use cfws.

But he still wants them on the Wii U main menu. And just made a thread calling Loadiine useless so... Yeah.
Seems like you cant read bro, stop interpret things that arent like you wish. I was just asking what it's good for. Someone else said that. Guys or Girls like you make me angry.

Seriously though, Mocha CFW couldn't be easier. There's no need to purchase a DS VC game. There's no need to have redNAND. Just open the Homebrew Launcher, run Mocha, and then do everything else like you normally would.

You can install normal games to SYSNAND or USB and not need at least a fw.img to launch them? I thought this was required for both VC and regular games.

Ok, understood.
I have haxchi installed (i am not using CBHC yet). And used WUP installer to install games of my region.
So now the Brazilian/WUPinstaller method says never install an out of region game.

Let me say I run WUPinstaller from haxchi and install a SNES/N64/DS VC Game (are these region specific?).
Will my WiiU brick, or will the game JUST not be visible until I apply signature patches (haxchi, CHBC, sigpatcher, mocha ...)?
Or do I have to apply signature patches first, then install (out of region?) VC game, then I am save?

You have to use the WUPInstaller y modified version and you need to be in sig patch mode to install the VC and to run the VC. Region doesn't matter if you use mocha (it shouldn't matter with any CFW).

edit:
It won't brick your system if you try to run the VC out of a CFW or out of sig patch mode. It'll just give you an error that you haven't purchased the game.
