how do I rip the roms from smash 4 Wii U like there's masterpieces and there's a bunch of games I really want to play legally and have roms of.
can somebody please make a tool to rip the roms from Smash 4 on Wii U?
Like all I found was this on github:https://github.com/farmerbb/RED-Project/issues/220
but it's very hard to follow and I want somebody to make a .py script that converts it into a playable rom
i want a rom of earthbound from smash 4 on Wii U
 
I mean, it's possible, but it's wildly inefficient due to the extra layers of encryption and other modifications Nintendo throws in there. There's no real reason to do this.

If your goal is purely to play Earthbound, then just use NUSspli. It downloads directly from Nintendo's servers, and it's going to be way faster and considerably more reliable.

If your goal is to get the ROMs, and you legally own them on your Wii U, just use the Dumpling tool.

It's not as easy as just forking the application. The GitHub you linked to was talking about a VC game, not the Masterpiece version. You'll likely just have to learn some hex editing.

The original tutorial you posted is a helpful guide, and probably the best you have. What parts are hard for you to follow? I'd be happy to go more in-depth on what you're confused about. I work with this a lot.
