I have a Wii U with a busted SD reader. The SD won't latch and I have to jury rig it so anything can be read in the Homebrew Launcher. That worked for an hour or so and now I can't get it to recognize any SD anymore.

Is there an any way to use a second USB to install titles to either NAND or another USB drive?

This is driving me crazy.

TIA

Yes. There is a way to install Wupinstaller games From USB to Internal memory and only that way.

Cant install from usb to usb.

Also you can install to memory and then move to a USB.

You need to use Mocha FAT32.


Remember. Format a USB device as FAT32.
Dont use 2 USB/HDD in process

Booting Mocha FAT32 your USB device will become a SD and USB ready device at sametime and Wii U will see as a formatted usb.

You can install games from USB to Internal. But not from USB to it self.

Like @Redirr said:

1. Take an unused USB HD and format it to Fat32
2. Copy your titles to a folder called "install" on the root of USB
3. Plug in your Fat32 USB hd into your Wii u
4. Launch mocha fat32 edition
5. Install your titles to nand.
6. Turn off Wii u and remove USB fat32 HD.
7. Put your Wii U formatted HD back into the Wii u and boot up
8. Go to data management and move from nand to usb
9. Rinse and repeat

    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Nah the air can do that
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Ask @x65943 he's trained for that stuff
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Kissing random dudes choking in celery? Really? Need to study for that?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Yes it requires a degree
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign

    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It literally turns it on.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
