Hacking Wii U USB Games on Home Screen

[Archerg]

Hi,

I sincerely apologize for this post if it seems ignorant, but I am completely new to Wii U homebrew (but have homebrewed other systems before, so I'm no stranger to cfw), and every post is pulling me every which way, and I need some or any help on this.

I've followed the guide on how to re-enable the Wii USB Helper using the method from the Reddit post on May 2, 2018 (don't know if I can post links as a new member here), and have full but somewhat deconstructed games on my USB drive. I also have some GameCube and Wii games in there in the same format as the helper downloads. However, when plugging it into my Wii U, nothing shows up on the main menu.

I'm using CBHC as well as Haxchi, all to the latest version, an drive not formatted to Wii U, but at fat32 format, Loadine but not used, formatted and set up SD card, and the directory for the games are E:/DATA/USA/GAMES (or ESHOP).

I greatly apologize for the inconvenience, but I would be over the moon if anybody could offer any help as to how I can make this work. Thanks

You have to install those games using wupinstaller

Have a read

Edit: to be clear you can't install "loadiine ready" games, loadiine is very outdated
