Im literally sitting here with a boner now. FANTASTIC!!!
On some shady site i found a tool called Nds2WiiU. Is this legit?
Can I just...put a rom (of a game I own) into it and ...viola thats it? Or should I follow your procedure fiveghteen?

I have the program and I used it to make new super Mario bros ds and it works good

I would like some help. I remember some one found a way to increase the resolution of DS games on the Wii U VC injects... Can someone point me in the right direction please, tried a few searches with no luck.

I've been playing some Super Mario 64 DS and Metroid Prime Hunters lately injected using NDS2WiiU app, and I've been loading them through Loadiine.
I wanted to ask two things:

1) Can I change the button layout for a particular title?
Let's say for example I want to change the A, B, X and Y buttons to the Right Stick for Metroid Prime Hunters.
Is there a file in charge of the button layout? Like a json file that I can modify or something?

2) The NDS games have a setting called "Render Scale", which when set to 2 instead of 1, makes the DS game display in HQ. (No more blocky 3D models!)
Has there been a way to avoid the infinite looping Wii U loading screen when going back from one of these games with Render Scale set to 2?

Thanks in advance!

Edit the "configuration_cafe.json" file found inside the "content" and change the following settings:
Code:
{
                    "screen": [
                        {
                            "source": "upper",
                            "rotation": 0,
                            "size": "1280 720",
                            "target": "tv",
                            "position": "0 0"
                        },
                        {
                            "source": "lower",
                            "rotation": 0,
                            "size": "854 480",
                            "target": "drc",
                            "position": "0 0"
                        }
                    ],
                    "desc_string_id": "VCM_LAYOUT_10_EXPLANATION",
                    "background": [
                        {
                            "position": "0 0",
                            "rotation": 0,
                            "resource": "//content_dir/assets/textures/tvback.png",
                            "target": "tv",
                            "size": "1280 720"
                        },
                        {
                            "position": "0 0",
                            "rotation": 0,
                            "resource": "//content_dir/assets/textures/drcback.png",
                            "target": "drc",
                            "size": "854 480"
                        }
                    ],
                    "name_string_id": "VCM_LAYOUT_10_NAME"
}
That's the configuration for the upper screen on TV and lower screen on the Gamepad.
I changed the offsets and the size of the screens to match the entire screen which is 1280 and 720 for me. The Gamepad is always a standard 854x480.

BTW does someone know how to change the resolution of N64 games?
I've been searching the files inside content for a while but couldn't fid anything good.

I am starting to think that the resolution might be stored in the RPX file. :/
Has someone been able to change it?

So mario kart 64 was dumped on a certain wiiu iso website if you know what i mean, the only new ini file is pokemon snap USA and EU that i could tell, pokemon snap usa now recognizes the pictures even tough the red dot doesnt show up but it works injected on mario kart 64 VC on loadiine.

Damn I was hoping for Resident Evil 2 USA and EUR inis. :P
Oh well, at least they provided new .ini files for Pokemon Snap, which proves the point that they are indeed making new configuration files with each release.

Thanks for the heads up!

Is anybody here capable of injecting N64 and SNES games?

All I want is to play again through all Zelda games on my Wii U gamepad so I'd love to have the PAL games injected instead of the US games which are floating around.

If someone PM me I would provide the neccassary german roms. :)

Is it possible to, say, inject a NTSC-U rom onto a PAL wiiu vc rom? I assume it would be pretty straightforward?

Or the exact opposite as it's what I want (PAL SNES Zelda ROM into NTSC SNES Zelda VC)?
xD Yeah, pretty much what you want.

Also, reading the first couple of pages, for n64 (which is what I'm targeting), the config files should be the same between versions? So it should work fine?

That's a thing I'm curious about as well.

Are VC savefiles (the native game saves accessed from in game pause menu, not the save states) compatible with savefiles I get from emulator+rom usage on PC, Androidphone, Wii Homebrew emulators or whatever?

And if yes - how are they accessed?

That'd be such great news as I could continue playing my Dragon Quest Monsters (Gameboy Color) savegame which I'm playing for over a decade now (first on PC, then transfered to my Android phone) on a Wii U with injected DQM rom.



This absolutely can be done for n64, ill take a crack at it.
