'llo here
I tried the script with Brain Training on sysNAND, everything went good, telling me the installation was successfull... but it's still booting Brain Training... Plus the icons didn't change...
Strange ?

EDIT : I donwloaded the game a few days ago for the mod so it should be the good version.

EDIT2 : i did it a second time, now it's good
Dunno what happened...

We must buy one of those games from the eShop? can't we just install one of those titles with wupinstaller ?

You can, but then you can't use it until you first run the fw.img...
That means you still have to use the browser exploit first.
And the whole point of doing haxchi, is you can boot hbl (and any other homebrew) right from console boot. And you never need the browser exploit ever again.

Aha, that would beat the purpose of this then. Thanks!

Hopefully someone can explain this for me.

I just setup rednand yesterday so if I'm correct if I follow the steps for this won't it just boot my rednand and not allow me to install haxchi.

The fw.img I have on my sd root is used to boot the rednand.

You can install a rednand forwarder on sysnand with this, but you have to change the fw.img with the wupserver one for the install.
After haxchi is done you can change it back for rednand fw.img.

Thanks, thats what I needed to know.

Are there instructions anywhere for creating the wupserver fw.img

I think just for this, you better just get it from "that iso site". That's what I used. Works like a charm. Search for "precompiled wupserver fw.img".

Is there any way to get both the HBL and the DS game at the same time? I have Hourglass but it kinda pains me losing it xD.

Nnnope, the game is non-existent the moment you overwrite it with the modified rom.zip

For haxchi, just download Brain Age, its only 6 bucks in NA or £6.22 in the UK.

There is a way, if your Wii U is region-free:

You could install the EUR version of the game afterwards, if your Wii U is US. Extract the savegame from the US version with Saviine and install it to the EUR version afterwards. (This will also work with the US version on EUR consoles, but the game will crash if it tries to access another language in the config menu.)

This will probably brick a Wii U that is not region-free.

Well...., yeah that's a solution too.

Just as a heads up, Brain Age game appears to be free in the EU eShop.
It still shows €6,99 but when you click next then all of a sudden it says that it's free.
