Hey I just modded a Wii U with aroma and I have some quick questions before I give it back to my nephew.


1 - Is having a big sd card really necessary ? I just backed up the nand and installed all my homebrew and I'm not even at 60MB usage.


Since my game backups run from my USB drive I guess I could just put in a cheap 8GB SD card I have lying around instead of wasting a bigger one.


2 - Can you start the Wii U without the SD card after modding it or should I unplug it completely to avoid that. Just curious on what will happen. On the Wii it's perfectly safe irc and the hombrew simply don't start but better be safe !


Thank you

32 gb would cover putting any Wii U game on it to install to internal/external hdd via Wup Installer, if that's what you're using to install games. But I think there's newer methods and I'm out of the scene.

You always leave the sd card in the Wii U.

Thank you, games were installed on the USB HDD using a 64GB SD Card and the console isn't going anywhere and nothing is going to be installed on it for probably the next ten years, It wont even be online.
