Is it possible to create a basic USB Loader GX forwarder that keeps the Wii U clock speeds?

If it is possible;
- Would this mean that any Wii or GameCube game loaded via USB Loader GX thereafter keeps the Wii U clock speeds? Or would it be reset when a game is loaded?
- Would this forwarder need to be installed to Wii U NAND and not loaded up as a .wuhb file?

My ideal scenario is to have two forwarders for USB Loader GX on the Wii U side - one standard forwarder (easy; already done) and one that retains Wii U clocks. I just don't know if this is doable.

Cheers.

Is there any game cannot reach 100% speed with a simple GX forwarder? I mean what is your goal for doing this?
Besides yeah currently the "official" GX forwarder can only be installed on USB

Yes. Some GameCube games can benefit further by running at Wii U speeds, and yes, I'm aware Nintendont already runs them at Wii speeds with improved performance.

Simplicity of being able to run Wii and GameCube games via an unthrottled USB Loader GX without individually patching, packaging and installing them. Understanding that some games might not play nicely with the full Wii U speeds, hence the 2 forwarders side-by-side.

Why does it need to be "official?" I'm currently running a GX forwarder WUHB file and that's just on the SD card.

I am no programmer myself, but I believe to achieve this (nintendont with Wii U clock speed) you need to reprogramm the code. And correct me if I am wrong, but there might be compatibility issues, because WIi is designed to be compatible with GC games, while Wii U is not. A simple point is that overspeed.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
