Hello, i have bought Splatoon, Zelda BOTW and few other games but i am collector so i want to keep them factory sealed so i was thinking about downloading them using wii u usb helper and following this guide (for some reason i cant post link to the guide i want to use so here is name of guide "Wii U USB loading - install WiiU games to USB or internal memory" posted by BurningDesire here on gbatemp) but i have few questions
1 i currently dont have 64GB sd card so i cannot dump my MLC (i have already dumped otp, seeprom, slc and slccmpt just cant currently backup MLC) how important is backing up MLC if i am only using wup installer loadiiine and loadiine.ovh (no custom firmware or patches), also does installing trough wup installer leave any traces after uninstalling game except tickets
2 is it confirmed safe for both offline and online (i would like to play Splatoon online without having to unseal my original disc)
3 if i get banned i can unban myself by editing serial in xml file?
4 can i update the games using wup installer
5 can i update the game using eshop?
and finally and probably most important, i block updates using DNS (i dont spoof firmware or anything else, only DNS), if i run NNU patcher to update games and acces eshop to buy and download games is it gonna update my firmware (i am on 5.5.1), so will running NNUpatcher cause wii u to ignore my dns block and update to 5.5.2?
Sorry if this is already asked but i researched little bit and just want to confirm i have correct information and can proceed to use wup installer to install games to NAND or USB and play online
