Hi I wanna play some WiiU&Wii games. I haven't touch my WiiU since I got Switch. WiiU is hacked with cold boot on lates EU firmware. I wanna know if using same HDD for WiiU part and vWii is possible. Before I heard that vWii needs HDD with modification that prevents WiiU part not give prompt about formatting etc.

Thanks for reply :)

Stay home & stay safe ;-)

The only way is to create a wii virtual console for each wii game.
It is not as simple as use a dedicated hdd with usbloader and there is the limit of titles to have in wiiu menu

OK thanks - so old method with hiding HDD from WiiU part ts still valid? And another question if vWii also takes 2TB drives or less?

2tb max for wiiu, i run a 8tb on vwii side, more maybe permissible but 8 covers pretty much the whole wii and gc library comfortably

You're using two drives? Or single drive with partition mods... That will be great, but IDK if possible
yes, 2 drives, vwii one u stealthd to avoid that format nag you mention, both self powered
not sure if this is what your looking for specifically, just wanted to point out you’ve got much more scope for the vwii side using 2 drives

I know that some drives needs "Y" cables. I have one more question about cheats on Wii U is it still use this clunky PC method or there is better way?

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
