Rip. Any site alternatives?
Just exit and restart Wii U USB Helper, then let it add the host file entry. The site is still there, you just can't resolve the name to an address (and since the address would get you to the site, we can't tell you what the address is either.)

Yup, that's what I thought...

when showing new additions to the app (from those title key sites) - is it possible to show which one they come from? like separate the 3ds from the wii u ones. It makes it hard to find new wii U games/updates when 3ds gets spammed so often.

What would be even better is showing which "Platform" it is like "Wii U Retail Download" Or "NES 3DS"

Yes of course that could be done

So, whats up with the title key sites?
The owner of that site didn't renew the domain for this year.
Consequently the server no longer is acessible from the known url but it is still online, at least for the moment.
The latest version of USB Helper will patch your host file to bypass this problem.

Correct me if I'm mistaken but that would only work on rooted devices, I will see what I can do though.
Hmm not sure of that hopefully someone else knows but I hope not as I can't root my phone as it belongs to my work lol and my pc is not working so the phone is the only way I can get games at the moment.

That's correct. root access is needed for /system/etc/hosts - if you are rooted you can manually edit this file

Alright, good news. I have coded a new way to bypass the issue which does not require to edit the host file! I've just published an update for the desktop and the mobile app :)

Hey! just to say that the Latest Update is fully working on Ubuntu 16.04.02 LTS (Linux distribution) with a wine version out of box (2.7 Staging) + winetricks dotnet45 ! ;)
Thanks for reporting back!
If you wish to make a guide for other Linux users I'll be glad to publish it on the front page!

    Google isn't very helpful anymore, you get recommended loads of crap that doesn't solve the thing that you're looking for.

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @K3Nv2, afaik yeah but I also don't think that it runs on home grade routers like openwrt/dd-wrt does. OPNsense runs on full-on x86 PC hardware
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Sadly openwrt seems to be dying for support unless it's just. Anew name
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Like made by the same devs different architecture
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    idk, I mean it had a new release back in March https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/releases
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Not sure how recent hardware it supports though
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I mean for 1st party routers iirc linksys use to support it
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    ahhhh that I have no idea
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    pretty cool though if so
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Or from what ive heard ways to set custom imgs for 1st party routers so locked down now days
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    OPNsense VM and specs and specs of system it's running on. https://imgur.com/a/S9wgGUD
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I've turned more features on in OPNsense lately and it's getting kind of high on RAM usage, I see. Probably bump that up to 4GB soon
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I wanna make a 8core router with support for 20gbps doesn't even sound that silly lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I only have 1 gig internet but internally I have 10 gig connectivity for everything on my lan lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    fiber connection from my desktop PC back to my core network switch
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    2 port HPE SFP+ PCIE NIC in my desktop and all of my servers
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    silly shit
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    eventually this desktop is going to act as a server too, just for the hell of it. Because this PC is WAY fucking overkill for how little I use it.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    And once I do that, my desktop OS that I interact with is just going to be a virtual machine and use GPU passthrough to connect everything
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Send it to me ffs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    No because it's my desktop lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    The most use this PC is getting right now is 979 Chrome tabs open right now
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    This is my desktop there are many like it but it is mine alone
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Enabled PPPoE on router now no wifi connection lul
