Hacking Wii U USB loading - install WiiU games to USB or internal memory

[Mr Objection]

Anyone tried online?

 

[jbuck1975]

oh yeah, the console sees it as legit, there is no trickery going on here besides the method of installation

the wii u natively supports loading games off of usb and that's what this is, full speed 100%

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

also probably a stupid question, does this bring us closer to hbl forwarders on the home screen?

This isn't a step closer. It's just a side step.

How does this even brick a Wii u ? It installs to the HHD can't you just unplug it?

I would like to know aswell. I just quoted the first post with that "brick when installing different region titles".

I just wish I could find 1 specific game working this way.

But I don't think it has NUS or WUD.

What game

Don't know but wouldn't it be like trying to put a out of region disk in your wii u

ok, I thought I would give this a try but I'm getting an error that I can't find any info on. Here are the steps I went through:

1. Downloaded a full game with NEW-NUSGrabberGUI
a. It created a folder called 0000000000000001 [NOTE: Not the real folder name]
b. Moved '0000000000000001' folder to SD:/Install
2. Opened WUD file for the same game I downloaded with Uwizard
a. Extracted Game Files to a folder
3. Opened/modified title.tik file (located in system/02/ folder of extracted WUD) with Wii U ticket modifier with GUI (aka Tik Changer)
a. Copied title.tik file to SD:/Install/0000000000000001 folder
4. Put the SD back into the Wii U
5. Plugged in a Wii U Formated USB Stick (removing my vWii formatted one)
6. Launched the Homebew Launcher
7. Launched the modified WUP Installer
8. Pressed X to install to USB Stick

Then then booted me back to a Wii U load screen, followed by a black screen with the following error: MCP_InstallGetInfo 0xFFFBF3E2

Your help is apprecaited.

a out of region disc would at least not brick your whole system. it just wont run.

Its should be:

SD:/Install/<All files here>

NOT SD:/Install/0000000000000001/<all files here>

whaat??
i transfer all game folders to sd, change first folder name to install, install it, put sd in pc, delete install folder then change the next folder to install,and back in wiiu install the next and so on without restart wiiu , u can install multipe times when you in wupinstaller

You don't even need to put into a PC, use FTPiiU to rename the folder on your SD.

I dont know if this belongs here or not..but here it goes

Im not a very wealthy man, so Im considering my options for the USB storage for this very hack.
Should I buy a 80$ worth combo of WD Elements 1TB and Y cable, or should I simply buy a 15$ 64gb usb stick and be done with it?
What do you think, I cannot make my mind so GBATemps hive mind would surely help I thought ...

Buy the 1TB HD you cheap bastard. You can always use it for something else later

I know that they won't run. But someone said out of region games would brick console

Well first fill up internal memory and see if it is enough. Then buy 500 GB or 1TB if internal memory is not enough.

you won't be able to use it for anyting else. Formats and uses whole thing.

Get a 64gb drive. Fits plenty of games. Or a $30 128gb one
