Hi there,
I got this Japanese Wii U for a while now, i got almost all my collection of NTSC US disk games works fine using the 119 region hack.
to explain things correctly im using coldboot haxchi,
what is very annoying is the Wii U menu language is Japanese, i read many posts here on the forum suggesting the use of system config tool to change the language of the menu.
Long story short i got the tool and installed it, took more time to find the config tool user manual and even more time to safely understand to use the basic features it provide.
However the magic tool didn't do the magic trick , got an error : Faild to switch DRC language. at this point i decide not to go any deeper as many experts here explain how dangerous the tool can be.
Another approach i took was suggested by user to replace the Japanese Allmessages.szs file(s) with and English one from other systems, that did work for few menus mostly settings but not all.
The goal here is to get the Japanese Wii U menu to English, thank you in advance for any point in the correct direction.
