I've seen people asking if they can install EUR DLC to a USA game, is that a possibility now? For me it seems not possible.
no cannot apply DLC from another region onto another region since they have different title IDs and require the same ones to work
AKA: EUR DLC only work on EUR game and USA DLC only works USA game

That's what I thought so. Thanks for the answer.
 
What if it was repacked?
if its repacked with correct title ID it will work if the DLC had no region locking on it in the first place (ie. wrong name's for folders)

Like editing the xml?
no it has to have correct title id on install as that is what is stored in yout title.db

There is nothing wrong by doing this right?
As in eshop will still work? It should yeah but probs will only display what was available on your original region since none has made an eshop region switcher yet. Also if you actually plan to pay for anything there I have no idea if your NNID funds from 1 region will be converted to another but you can find out
 
If I do this will eshop show me content from all regions?

Nope because your eshop application is for your region only. This method make just your console able to launch any content region (and update them normally because it's just URL's for updates). But your eshop content is "locked" to your region (unless we found a way to install more than 1 eshop, but its not in project I think). Each region have his proper eshop

Have more than one eshop would say deal with differents accounts and some other region settings and certificates. It will probably never happens

Eshop title is just a graphical front for nintendos servers, if we can just mod it to grab the content for eshop from a different region it will display the content from that region

Precedent answer just edited ;)

Even we find a way to display other region content in one eshop App, Nintendo will want to know (via account, settings verification and certificates) who you are (or which console try to get content to be more precise)

The icing on the cake would be if someone made freeshop wii u edition then there would be no need for redirecting servers or to use one of the many pc programs to download the files for installation

It's more probable and possible to make with actual tools. M8b someone is already working on, i've no idea on that
 
I will try to make my console region free... just because some games like fatal frame xD full no DLC edition lol

Triple check which line you modify before sending the file to the WiiU and you will be fine. Try this on rednand before if you have one ;)

Be sure to have a good text editor too (Notepad++ by example)
