Is there a plugin to force a game to run in a languge different than that of the console?

I am asking because I have a Japanese Wii U.
I know some games don't boot at all unless you install the Japanese version (Star For Zero, Mario Kart, etc). I guess it's much more difficult to make those work.
The thing is, there are some games that do run on the Japanese Wii U even when they are from a different region, but they run only in Japanese. That's the case of Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze and Kirby And The Rainbow Curse. I have the European version of those games, so they should have multiple "language packages" in the data files, but they are not accessible because the Japanese Wii U won't let you change the display language of the console (no such option in the Settings Menu). I just want the Wii U to use a specific language package instead of the Japanese one.

The same Region Free Plugin included in Aroma files allows you to change the language of the games

Of course, the games have to include the language you want to use

I should have looked into that earlier... Thanks for the advice!
But there's still one thing that bothers me a little: some European games that do have language packages for EU region and Japan won't let me pick the Japanese language in the Region Free Plugin... That's Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze Zelda Twilight Princess for example. I wish the option to choose Japanese was available, but as it is the EU version of the game, Region Free Plugin only allows me to pick from EU languages, even though the Japanese language pack is definitely in the game files as well...

Comrade @ArgoRV there are 4 plugins not listed:

1 Begone Wiimotes: This plugin for WUPS disconnects Wiimotes with a GamePad button combination. Please do not use this to annoy your friends.

2 BottomPadSwap: Introducing BottomPadSwap - a new aroma plugin for half-broken gamepads! Replace malfunctioning bottom buttons with custom combos for easy Home menu navigation and system shutdown.

3 Thred List: This is a plugin for Aroma that shows a list of active threads in the plugin menu.

4 Screenshot Unlocker: Some Wii U games and apps disable the upload of screenshots to Miiverse and Web Browser. This plugin removes this restriction, to always enable screenshot uploads.

In other news, i tried again the turbiine plugin and now works!, i think maybe the lastest aroma update fixed something
 
I dunno if this is the place to make requests for specific plugins. But I have what I believe is an easy request. For the hid to vpad plugin, can it be alterred so that we can enable or disable it's change with a quick enable switch in the plugin menu? See I ask because for Mario 64 DS, I use a different button layout setting for the Gamepad, which needs to be accomplished through hid to vpad. However, this button layout change is no good for any other games I wish to play while in Aroma with my Gamepad. Is there a solution to this beyond deleting the plugin anytime I'm not using it in Aroma? If not, can a simple update be pushed to allow for that? Thanks if anyone can adjust this as needed!!

Hi all, I was wondering about 3 improvements:​

1 EnvSwap: I would like to be able to use it when in aroma, it would make me arrive on system menu of tiramisu instead of in homebrew channel is it possible?
2 A forwarder that would go to the Vwii App "Some-YAWMM-Mod" because if you Vwii is down, you can often recover by deleting latest wad.
3 For Mirroring: a working BetterSettings.wps plugin or Improved SwipSwapme plugin concerning gamepad mirroring:
Each time I go in parameters and come back mirroring is Screwed, each time time I go in nusslpli and come back, mirroring is screwed, I touched a side arrow with the wiimote, mirroring is screwed, and each time I try TV button on gamepad+RIGHT arrow, I can reach the gamepad mirroring (concerning the tile menu) to be on the TV screen.
