Hacking I'm on 5.5.1, should I stay on it?

[Noctosphere]

I mean, I know there will be exploit released for this version, it's okay, I know it and I don'T want to hear anything like : Yes stay on this version, it will be hacked soon.
What I mean is, will there be a lot of homebrew stuff for this hacked version?
Also, even if there is a ISOU dump loader, is it easy to find Wii U iso online?
Do I need to buy a lot of stuff in order to play them?
Will I be able to play online (even if I almost don't use online stuff except for Mario Maker)
That's what I mean, if I want to regulary play to Wii U, what is the best thing to do?
Keep my Wii U updated and buy games?
or
Keep my Wii U on this version and wait for exploit?

Will there be a lot of homebrew stuff for this hacked version?
There is no certain way to answer yes or no, hopefully yes.

Also, even if there is a ISOU dump loader, is it easy to find Wii U iso online?
Yes, and its called IOSU, not ISOU, and its forbidden to ask about piracy on this site.

Do I need to buy a lot of stuff in order to play them?
Again, since its not released there is no way to answer this, but if its the same as loadiine, then not, you dont.

Will I be able to play online (even if I almost don't use online stuff except for Mario Maker)
Again, its not released, we dont know exactly what can you Do, and Do Not, as well as you will be able to DO, and Do Not.

That's what I mean, if I want to regulary play to Wii U, what is the best thing to do?
Keep my Wii U updated and buy games?
Keep my Wii U on this version and wait for exploit?
If you are willing to spend a few bucks, and got the income to do so, just go buy the games, there aren't a lot of games for this system, probably around 10 or those (MAX), are good ones.

It's only good for POWERPC Wii Us. Use 3.8.6 on others.

I agreez, the i7 5MHZ with GTXover9000X wIIU on 3.8.6 is the best. Such optimal stability. Much power

Since you're purposefully ignoring everything said in stickies and in at least a dozen threads...


YES! UPDATE THE MOTHERFUCKER!!!!

...and stop making threads about it.


@others: yeah, I know he will come back to whine when things don't turn out okay for him, but I think we can all agree that he'll do that anyway.

IMO, I would downgrade to 5.3.2

Spoiler

But in order to downgrade you'll have to wait for IOSU and/or a boot-time exploit,
but maybe downgrading isn't even necessary by then,
so perhaps it's better to just

WAIT a.k.a. DON'T UPDATE

Unless....

Spoiler

you realise the question has been asked/answered many times before,
because there are other threads on GBAtemp too (in case you haven't noticed).

Spoiler

TL;DR

Just "DO IT! - Wait! ... Don't Update!"

...

I only asked if it was worth it or if it wasn't. if you compare advantage and disadvantage...

stop being so rude guys

That's the highest there is. You can't even go higher yet. What a weird question.

 

[2manyGames2play]

Not to be rude but have you used the Search function of the forum before creating a new thread?

Responding like an asshole seems to be the way this website is going.

If I'm too scared to update and can only dream of downgrading, is it possible to do a lateral side grade?

On what firmware are you?

 

[Ridge]

Going from 5.5.0 to 5.5.1 is safe.

 

[ScarletDreamz]

Going from 5.5.0 to 5.5.1 is safe.

Indeed, users that are not on 5.3.2 or 5.4.0, should update to the last firmware. and stay on it (5.5.1)

I think the latest version is still 5.5.1, which I am on 5.5.0 right now. Is 5.6 a reality?
So unless you are sure hacks are possible, do not update.
I thought I was a dick but people are worse.
