Will you hack more DS Vc games? If you are, please hack Mario Party DS

On top of needing interest and time, which he probably doesn't have, Fix94 also stated that he needs the title key for any titles he might work on.

So if you want to have any chance of seeing your game supported, the first steps would be to extract your title keys with tik2sd, and upload your keys.txt to that title key site. Without the key, there's not much Fix94 can do, even if he wanted to.

I edited the images, the name and the config of Haxchi and everytime I inject them the VC game appears with "???" and it's needed to download the game another time.
What I'm doing bad?. There's some limit on the images size? (The images for the TV and the GamePad has a size of some MBs).

Because if you want to use haxchi it has to be a legit brought game off the eshop. So you have to buy it for it to work from a cold boot

After we install Haxchi, can we still play the game ?

You can also save that money and brick your 100+ dollars Wii U instead like countless other n00bs. Your choice

No, so buy something you don't want to play.

Or you could install an out-of-region version of the same game after you've installed Haxchi since they have different title IDs and Haxchi lets you run out-of-region titles. (That gets confusing for some people though, especially when you get into CBHC.)

Hey! I followed this guide https://gbatemp.net/threads/guide-noob-guide-to-wii-u-hacking.451297. Haxchi worked. It did not change my logo though? Used it on phantom hour glass. The other thing is I cant get e shop games to install onto my usb or nand. The game I tried from the eshop to wup install was Minecraft Story Mode. Any tips on what to do?

Boot haxchi first. Then go into system settings. If you're into Haxchi (latest version) CFW, it should show system menu version 99.99.99. Exit the system settings. Boot homebrew launcher, and launch wup installer y mod. Install your game while you're in Haxchi CFW. You will also need to run game while in Haxchi CFW. Easy.

is it possible to hotswap your SDcard while using haxchi? I get a black screen with -3 when I go back into Miimaker and swapping my SDcard while the WIIu is still on.

So my Wii U is on version 5.5.1U, and I'm trying to download Brain Age for Haxchi. I ran nnupatcher and bought it on the eshop, but then I see that there's a system update? I attached an image of what I saw. Any workarounds?

That's what it says if you have Nintendo servers blocked. There is no Wii U system update as of this posting, and it's unlikely that there will ever be one again

Alright thanks. I just tempor disabled the DNS and everything worked fine.

So is it safe to assume that we can switch back to auto-obtain dns in the settings?

I wouldn't exactly risk it by doing so permanently. It's better to use the DNS as a "just in case" option. It's not fun when your hacks stop working because of a 5.5.2 update out of nowhere. I just disabled it for 4 minutes to download Brain Age, and after, I put it back on. I remember reading somewhere that an update is unlikely, but still possible.

Can I use Haxchi to autoboot into Mocha CFW?
And why might one want to install ColdbootHaxchi after installing regular Haxchi?

Yes, I actually have Haxchi with hotkeys to boot multiple types of Mocha CFWs. Just edit config.txt. One may want to upgrade to CBHC to boot into CFW when they boot up the Wii U, but that's pretty dangerous. It drastically raises the risk of a brick if you're not careful.
