If they were on the SD card then standard tools like
http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec (I doubt its partner program testdisk will be needed here but if you are putting together a kit then make sure to grab that at the same time) and https://www.piriform.com/recuva/download and whatever other recovery software you like (I tend to find none do anything beyond what those two do as there are limited ways to pull off automated data recovery). The DSI behaves like a camera so something in the dcim folder will probably be it.

If they were stored on the DSi (don't know if they can be offhand but if it is like various types of phone) then not unless you made a backup of it, and you will want decryption keys for it. Without that I would not put it past say the AISI, NSA or similar national level signals intelligence and law enforcement to get something out of it, for us mere plebs then not so much.

    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist

    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
