I know where I could download ROMs if I wanted to, but that's not what I want to do.That dosn´t make sense PC is even more powerfull you can download roms at any rom site i can´t link you to it but that site is a paradise of emulation and download a emulator on the same site what do you want to play?
What do you want to do?I know where I could download ROMs if I wanted to, but that's not what I want to do.
With a tool like TCPGecko or cafiine you can grab whatever ROM the Virtual Console is using and actually play them in emulators on your PC, yes. With cafiine you can even send a different ROM file to your Wii U and play it there.So you could use the ROMs in emulators and whatnot?
I want to extract the ROMs from the VC games. I've done this with my regular Wii VC games, and wanted to see if I could do it on Wii UWhat do you want to do?
you can´t emulate wii u or wii u vc so if you want that you can´t do it
That's exactly what I wanted to know, thanks!With a tool like TCPGecko or cafiine you can grab whatever ROM the Virtual Console is using and actually play them in emulators on your PC, yes. With cafiine you can even send a different ROM file to your Wii U and play it there.

Most work tho. I tried running Animal Crossing on the Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training VC and it somewhat worked, however it crashed after the character driving the taxiSome ROMs are different then the corresponding cart dumps by the way. not sure why?
yeah I forget what rom it was now but the sound data used a different compression. for some roms these changes may just be bug fixesMost work tho. I tried running Animal Crossing on the Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training VC and it somewhat worked, however it crashed after the character driving the taxi
It's probably possible now (but no one really cares to develop tools to do it) since we have access to practically all of vWii (what the games run in) and enough access to the Wii U's data to do anything practical.So same can be done with Wii games? Not vWii but Wii games that are available on Wii U
probably not, atleast until we can dump our tickets to get the title keys as afaik booting into vwii will remove cafiine/pygecko so no way to dump anything once you boot up a vc wii game as it plays in vwii mod with some additional patches for gamepad controls (i guess that ^ may be true, it might be possible to do something with vwii mode to dump the game, but idk tbh as i assume wii vc games can only be launched via the wiiu homescreen (i have no idea really) which could be a problemSo same can be done with Wii games? Not vWii but Wii games that are available on Wii U
legal"ish" backup vs you dirty stinkin pirateWhy would you do this. Just dl the roms
You can dump the from RAM or TCGP Gecko, but they are 1:1 the same as current dumps found online, so it's rather pointless.
which roms?some of the VC ROMs are different. MD5 them
The Definitive Guide to Wii U Hacking -> "How do I dump ROMs from VC games?"I want to extract the ROMs from the VC games. I've done this with my regular Wii VC games, and wanted to see if I could do it on Wii U
only one i know was megaman battle network gba, never really played the game, but the person who i helped dump it said the VC version had some extra items unlocked , and the rom we dumped from ram was indeed different.....im assuming that was done because some items required network play or something to unlock, so nintendo/capcom just unlocked them as the network feature doesn't work on wiiu.......but thats just a guesswhich roms?
the games I tested were the same.
