Hacking @WiiUBrew Title Database Editors

[BullyWiiPlaza]

Please don't shift the order of tables in the titles database every time for unrecognizable reasons because it breaks JGecko U's title downloader causing the wrong table to be downloaded. This is the 2nd time I needed to update the tool just for the table index because of user complaints and it gets a bit old because it's not my fault that it breaks.

Below is the current selector I'm using:

String titleDatabaseURL = "http://wiiubrew.org/wiki/Title_database";
Document titleDatabaseDocument = Jsoup.connect(titleDatabaseURL).get();
Elements titlesTable = titleDatabaseDocument.select("#mw-content-text > table:nth-child(20) > tbody");

Before it was this:

Elements titlesTable = titleDatabaseDocument.select("#mw-content-text > table:nth-child(14) > tbody");

Adding one game (The Legend of Zelda™: Breath of the Wild) shouldn't cause this.

Thanks for respecting the dependency on the site's layout. Alternatively suggest a selector which is more "robust".

Why not save a local static copy now. No more games are going to be released right?

Yeah, it does that but all newcomers might have troubles and someone always might find a reason to edit the database and insert more tables which breaks the titles downloader

Do you need to download it at all anymore though? Just package the title file along with jar file and remove online check?

Yeah but I still like to have the updater intact
There are still games coming out, the Wii U is not completely dead.

Oh really? Sorry I didn't know. I thought zelda was last
