I don't think you know how piracy works. It's only a loss when it was a potential sale to begin with.

Exactly. Once it loses relevance to the original dealer, like NES, SNES and N64 games on their original console, then piracy is more acceptable. It's much less so when buying a product that's still being sold by the creator. It's good that some of the people here promote anti-piracy, at least for these new consoles.

i mean tbh if a hack doesn't come round soon I'm getting a WiiKeyU ^^

^ This one gets it...
A proper, all-access hack/mod would be awesome for homebrew, since there are ODDs just around the corner that will (almost) only facilitate piracy.

Imho, it would be a good thing if it was like the SMC-hack on the 360, where you couldn't get on the regular Live (eventually) and all the mods was kept on lan or other servers (X-link Kai)

The WiiU pad has sooooo much potential when it comes to homebrew, can't wait to see more :D

WiiKeyU is the best ^^

Has anyone asked chadderz if this exploit he created can be used on other games than mk8 ? If so, it could possibly extract roms or assets from the new nes remix collection just announced for the U.S. .

Yes it can be, my exploit is in the PPC kernel, not MK8. The exploit allows me to take control of any software running on the PPC, which is basically everything to do with games, menus, etc.

I for one would like to see some Pikmin 3 Bingo Battle stages modded, and the possibility of disabling the 100 Pikmin on the field restriction. (Imagine a battle with 200 Pikmin per player!)
We don't own a lot games for Wii U which is one barrier, and also we don't have time to be attacking every game. We'll stick to modding MK8, which will provide tools and insight that other teams can eventually use to do other games.
I smell LULZ...

(Very good job Chadderz!)
Mdmwii? There's a name I haven't seen in a while! Thanks, I very much doubt Bean would do 4tl again mind.

Thanks for the answer and for being honest. :)

Great work Chadderz! CTGP is my favorite homebrew on the Wii and I'm looking forward to seeing what you, Bean and community can do with MK8 once you're ready to release some tools. Hold that kernel exploit close, as all it takes is one leaker to spoil things. It's entirely up to you, but I'd suggest it is safe to share the exploit with FoF as they've been excellent to guard their exploit from leaks.

They have full controll, this is about 90%.

Then the time trial ghosts....ugh, those are proving to be a pain.
I thought the staff ghost were fairly easy to beat, now the downloaded ghost on the other hand...

What is really unsettling is that I cannot see how much total coins I have collected, unlike MK7 you can see how much total coins you have collected. I believe I have unlocked all the parts and characters in MK8 except for that darn gold glider and not knowing how many more coins I need really sucks.

    @The Real Jdbye, tbh the HD collections are more justified since they include more than just 1 game per copy

    @SylverReZ I read that non-binary people identify as a blend of male and female. The point is i think i'm a blend of those and thus non binary
