Hacking Wii U: ULGX Not Launching Gamecube Games

PizzaFox · Jun 5, 2020

This is for vWii within Wii U.

Wii games run fine from ULGX, Gamecube games do not (DSI error). ULGX launches correctly from both vWii forwarder and Wii U injected forwarder. I have noticed when I go to settings in ULGX and then back to games list, it takes 5-10 minutes to display any GUI or respond to any controller inputs (cursor still moves with Wiimote in real time, however). This was not an issue until I injected some Wii U games onto a 64GB USB stick (previously, everything was injected into NAND). I have two USB sticks plugged into Wii U (128GB and 64GB). I have tried both upgrading and downgrading ULGX to no avail. Nintendont is up to date as far as I can tell.

Nintendont works and runs games perfectly, also launches successfully from both vWii and Wii U forwarders.

I’m still new to this, so I was wondering if anyone had a solution?

Thanks!

Buy a wall powered HDD as recommended by Nintendo

Hello,

Get an external hard drive, as Shadow # 1 points out, and everything will work fine.

When I remove the USB which contains the injected Wii U files, I still get the DSI error with ULGX, unfortunately. When I remove both USB sticks, the ULGX GUI fails to load for 5-10 minutes (same as before).

It should also be noted that when I load a Gamecube game from ULGX without the USB sticks plugged in, it gives me Nintendont boot.dol error. As far as I can see, all the ULGX paths are set up correctly.

By the way, the 128GB USB stick runs Wii games fine. It is a Kingston DataTraveler 100G3. I would like to report this on the USB/HDD compatibility list on the Wiki but I can't seem to figure out how to make an account.
