The entire wii u library in WUP format is already on Archive. There's also Wii U downloader and Nusspli. The later will do all the work for you, although it'll take awhile. Why jumping though all those hoops?

Why? You just made things harder on yourself. Just google Wii U USB Helper. You can get the games in the correct format already there.
That’s not really the best tool anymore and I wish it was since afaik it was the only one that allowed remote installs over your network

But since that homebrew is an outdated elf file it kinda makes the whole tool worthless to use when combined with its terribad UI

Wii U downloader is much better (even tho there’s no remote install option )

The remote installs are dumb. It just stores the files on the SD cards before installing. You can do the same with ftpiiu, but there's no point, just use NUSspli then.

Really? Wow I never knew that I always thought it was actually getting around the double storage problem. Like FBI used too for 3ds remote installs

TIL thanks for the info! I ended up using Nusspli tho even tho it took 2 days lmao

No way around it sadly. The functions used by the Wii U for online installs only install directly from NUS (I'm unsure if those functions are used by NUSspli or not, but they can't be used for local files)

    @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

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
