-I'm running Haxchi in the
-5.5.1 U Firmware
- Updated blocked by DNS
- I have mario kart and super smash bros installed in PC with Wii U USB helper and on my Wii U via WUP installer IN MY sysnand

Ok here's the question : can I run NNUSPatcher and install updates (while having my DNS on) and Also buy DLC for smash in the shop and download it fully

I have a question, since you said yes and yes. I just bouthg the DLC , but in my download icon has an X, there's two things in there. The system update which is being blocked so it says error and the super smash bros content (dlc) which keeps saying pending and doesn't move ? Any help remember I'm not in the latest software

Can you buy dlc this way ?

Nevermind it worked, I turned off my Wii U and then back on so I can remove the update error that was queued to be priority downloaded over the DLC . Now it wasn't there and my DLC downloaded fine.

The trick is to unplug your system from the back (Not from the wall outlet), wait 10 seconds, then plug it back in and turn it on. The download should proceed like normal.

Do you need to rerun NNUpatcher each time you shut off the wiiu?

Only if you need to access the eshop or download game updates.

Nope, the game will resume downloading normally and without nnu patcher enabled. As soon as you turn it back on from unplugging it, you're golden.

I also bought Mario kart 8 dlc after launched nndupatcher. Had exact the same problem. The download section was the firmware update stucked due to DNs block. Also my dlc was stucked. I had to manually disconnect the power cable from the back of the console while it was turned on. After that I booted the wii u without relaunching nndupatcher and it started automatically to download the mario dlc. Cheers
