Hacking Wii U Wishlist

[AxelHei]

The IOSU exploit is right around the corner so, I had an idea to make a wishlist of apps we want with IOSU. If a dev doesn't know what to make they can choose form this list if they would like.
Comment below apps for things you would like to see and if they are good I will add to main post.

• Gamepad in vwii support
• Universal GamceCube adapter support including vWii
• Loadiine with online with USB support FAT32
• An app to enable SDCafiine prior to launching
• Custom themes
• Upscale Wii games.
• Upscale GameCube games
• Make a decrypted nand dump and search for unused/beta/debug/interesting things (cafeaging!)
• Video Streamer Like Kodi

The ability to uprender Wii games to 1080p.

Me? First and foremost, Gamepad support in vWii mode (esp. for emulators), failing that, custom firmware that doesn't require spoofing to gain access to online gaming, that, and brick prevention.

Thread hasn't been posted on since Feb, not sure if they'll like bumping a thread that old, IDK

Gamepad in vWii and Universal GamceCube adapter support including vWii, hell yeah!
I would finally be able to put my Wii to rest if we can actually get these two things.

Only reason I still use my Wii is because I can't use my Gamecube controller on Mario Kart Wii on my Wii U

this is regarding IOSU not normal homebrew

 

[greenlanternx]

a media player with external cd/dvd/bluray support
an SDK based on libwiiu (or maybe something new)

Most of it still applies tho

Never said bumping, just linking so we can continue with all the prior ideas


RootFW will allow for plugins so it'll be able to do numerous things, the only thing I remember off the top of my head is an f.lux port, I'll think of more later

What do I know, I haven't been following the scene very much as of late, I don't even know what's going on anymore lol.

What makes you say that? Please turn my skepticism into excitement!

Edit: There's also been other hints (elsewhere) about it happening soon™
How soon? Who knows.

I don't believe its release is imminent for a second.

No idea who that is, never seen him on here or anywhere else, could be an elaborate prank for all we know.

It's not a prank. Take my word for it.

RootFW

See? Even she's mentioning it.

Well...JustPingo promises lots of things (for instance, this: https://github.com/JustPingo/KernelTimeMachine-Old) but hardly ever delivers. I'll be here, hoping he's referencing a team effort. Otherwise, there isn't too much hope.

EDIT: Well, if NWPlayer123 says it exists, then that's something, I guess.

Where is the option for unabashed piracy?

I'm not saying it is, just that it could be, or that people can easily pull things like that, nothing more. That and I just never heard of this justPingo person, seemingly came out of nowhere, and besides, I don't know how useful the IOSU exploit would be to the average Joe, methinks most users won't be able to use it out of the box.

We already have Loadiine for that lol.

 

[NWPlayer123]

In the depths of hell, obviously

I wasn't in the scene when KTM was being worked on, so I don't know how he was back then.
But, Pingo and some other guy (which I won't name, just to be safe) are in fact working on it.
