I have read these forums (among others) in their entirety, and cannot answer the following question:
I have every WiiWare and VirtualConlsole -=WAD=-, (none are homebrew),
They installed on my WII using a Wad Manager and worked flawlessly.
Can I install the -=EXACT SAME=- .wad file; that i used on my WII; on my vWii (Wii U) using a Wad Manager without bricking?
I keep seeing all this stuff about having to have special vWii forwarders, and how .wads are super dangerous in vWii as opposed to WII, etc etc. I saw something about using a wad converter for wads, using a NAND Emulator through WiiFlow or GX..... There is no definitive answer on the internet it seems.
I do not care about homebrew, I want to know what steps, if any, need to be taken to install all my WW/VC to my vWii. I'm willing to load HomebrewChannel every time I want to play a WW/VC game if necessary, I don't care how tedious the process is or having a forwarder, as long as it is confirmed safe. On my WII I used to load all my WW/VC off of my SDHC card because I didn't like my main menu all cluttered up. So I would like to do the same with my vWii; have all my WW/VC within the "SD" menu within my "vWii".
I have the latest Wii U firmware, 5.0
I Smash Stacked the HomebrewChannel onto the Wii U.
I dumped Keys and Nand.
Now I'm here.
So in summary...
1. The WII WW/VC wads I used on my WII, will they brick a Wii U?
2. Which WW/VC games even work anymore on the Wii U. (I saw that there were some that freeze at the "*insert controller type here* is required" screen?)
