So I downloaded the files for Color Splash EUR but I don't want to risk anything so how can I be sure that it's really a EUR Game?

Nothing will happen if you install an out of region game. You just wont be able to play it and will have to uninstall it. The download should have the title id somewhere. You can also check the title file i believe

Everyone who talked about this told that installing an out of region game causes a brick. Did that happen in older firmware versions?

That must've been a bad urban legend, lol.
Just like @uribemaster said: No it doesn't brick your console, it just doesn't start, not without regionhax.

It's also safe to install to NAND? (Sorry for all those questions. A Wii U is not that cheap and I don't have the money to get a new one if something happens)

Yes it is.
How did you download it?
I prefer using uTikDownloadHelper. Shows you the region, and downloads it with a disk title.tik (if there's one).

I downloaded it on a site but I'm not sure if it's allowed to name it. It was a USB Ready Game. It has all the files and the ticket should be modified. (I didn't download it with NUSgrabber or USB Helper or anything because I don't have access to a PC right now)

IMHO if you can get the game directly from nintys server, don't get the game from "that iso site".

I'd be too.... that's why I suggest using either NUSGrabber, uTikDownloadHelper, JNUSTool, etc ...etc...
I'm just gonna try it. If it's safe to install out of region games it should be fine... I hope.

It doesn't hurt, even if it have a missing file in it, the worst could happen is wupinstaller doesn't install it, or the game doesn't start. But really, use the above mentioned programs next time, they exist for a reason ^_^

And if you're really paraniod you can check the titles ticket info with this tool:

Alright it started to install but it stopped and I got an error code (bad SD Card) I formated it 2 days ago. Is that a common error or do I really have to format it again?

Did you format it to FAT32 with 32k cluster size?
Is the read-only slide slided off?

I did. And no it can write on it. HB App Store wouldn't install Homebrews if it couldn't write on the SD card. I'm gonna try it again. I think it's because I missed a step.
