OP Updated. Good Job, WiiU Hackers, Good Job!

Run GameCube Games? YES! (Devolution for VWii is quite compatible, but requires a whole lot of kibbitzing to get working because of "anti-piracy" Measures. More info in this thread. Also, Before leaving the Scene, Crediar gave us Nintendont, another Gamecube backcompat program. Compatibility has increased significantly since it was released, and even runs some games that Devolution couldn't. Also, Open source! If you'd like to download or help with this project, more information in this thread. Here's a compatibility List.)

This could probably use a minor update, since Nintendont now has amazing compatibility and Devolution is barely worth mentioning. (Simply for the fact that it exists and does perform the same basic function... But Nintendont is the obvious choice for pretty much everyone.)

The only reason someone would want to use devolution is for broadband adapter emulation at this point

Do you mean from a NAS or streaming from the Web?

I think he's talking about multiplayer online

Oh wow you're right break can't come soon enough

You'd probably need to be on the "current" firmware to play online? In that case you'd need an 3DS-like EmuNAND or a version spoofer.

Look up "WUP-Installer" in the search bar

I'm on 5.5.0E, hopefully there will be support soon, Cannot wait to play backup games:

Super Mario 3D World
Xenoblade chronicles X
Kirby power paintbrush
Wonderful 101
Bayonetta 1 & 2
Pikmin 30
Splatoon
Zelda Wii U
Zelda TP HD
Raymans Legends
Yoshi's Woolly World
Donkey Kong Country: (the ice one)
Cod: Black Ops 2
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
NES Remix 1 & 2

That's what i'll hack it for, maybe a few more in the future, all the other good ones I already own

Or you could just buy those games. Just sayin'.

Yeh, i'll buy zelda if it takes a while for the release, unlikey tho, I was very patient with the 3DS

I'll try to be patient again

Well, since Loadiine's compatibility list is getting better and better every day, I figured I'd open the floodgates.

OP updated. Have fun, noobs!

Someone here can tell how downloadable content works on wii U? Its like the wii (download a .wad dlc from around the internet) ? I mean, there's a way to make dlc work with the use of loadiine yet (the legal and the illegal way)? Also, titles from e-shop will be possible only when the iosu hack comes?

 

[muskieratboi]

Read the Loadiine thread. DLC/Updates etc don't work yet. You'd need an IOSU exploit for that. As I said, early days.

 

[BeefBaby]

It would be "one small step for "A" mario".

Finally nice to see that the Wii U progression guide is finally at the stage where people can hack their Wii U's

Now for 5.4.0 and 5.5.0, the hype train ride continues

My Wii u is over 5.3.2 is there anyway to downgrade or will I have to wait until there is a way to downgrade because I am really hoping to play backups on my Wii u?

Just Wait. Turn off the internet config on your wii U, just for precaution, and stay in the current version you are. There are things coming soon (dont ask when, but stay tuned) for 5.5.0. and 5.4.0....Theres no way to downgrade, and when the IOSU hack comes, maybe there will be, but I dont think we will need to.
