hi @GaryOderNichts
I have made a new video how to unbrick vWii by using NUS Downloader method :)
it's exactly the same thing like the update you get to change your vWii region
get to change vWii in firmware version to new or old
for this video I used a Japanese versions of vWii
I convert my vWii region EUR vWii to JAP vWii for this video enjoy :)


Thank you @NintnedoGuyin66 I used your guide on the video with NUS downloader and it works.
Now vWii is in full function (something like formated NAND).

In this guide anyone must pay attention on specifics.

vWii Decaffeinator v2
Changelog:
  • Now supports regenerating the setting.txt.
    The file will be regenerated from the consoles region and serial which can be read from the Wii U side.
    This means it is now possible to restore a vWii from a 100% empty NAND without any NAND backups.

Simply boot into Haxchi's cfw by pressing the button it is configured for example if you didn't changed the configuration it should boot onto cfw if you press the A button iirc

You have haxchi from a video guide which probably isn't set up to run CFW.
You can either use mocha now or reinstall haxchi with a proper config.
In the future you should use https://wiiu.hacks.guide to hack your Wii U instead of using video guides..

What does your config.txt look like?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

If you don't have it, it's in the game's folder. Use ftpii u everywhere for haxchi.​
