From what's I've been gathering on this site lately, most of you use Haxchi instead of Mocha or Loadiine. If so, then you are aware that save data backup programs such as SaveMii or Saviine's results are hit or miss. With all do respect to the people making these programs, Nintendo's costumer disservice policies makes it that even formatting your Wii U will make your save data on an external storage useless.
Now I'm not programmer, that's a fact, but I have been working for software companies for over 12 years, so I know that the only other motivation that will push results other than the challenge itself is money. Now I can't speak for everyone here, but except during weekends, holidays and vacation days, I have little free time, so much so that if I could buy extra hours every day, I would.
In short, here is my proposal: Make a simple and easy to use program that allows you to backup and restore save data to any Wii U systems and that's at lease compatible with major titles. We're talking about first party of course, the non-shovelware 3rd parties and VC titles would be nice too.
Now don't get me wrong, this wouldn't be an actual Kickstarter, the point is to see how much money we could potentially give to a programmer, have this person make the program, prove to us that it works, we send the money via Paypal and the programmer releases the program. The programmer is free to release the source code or not.
Communities such as ours tend to have the reputation of being nothing but pirates who won't pay for anything. I don't know about you guys, but I purchase my physical games and dump them myself, so I think it's time that we prove those stereo types to be wrong. Anyway, guess I'll start my pledge, 100$ USD.
