So I have recently modded my Wii u and got some games I got through Usb helper, and after some games, I got and put into the Wii u, I thought "what if I could get Wii games through the Wii u?", as my thinking came on my mind, I thought of trying to get some offline games I haven't got the chance to play or try it out like for example "Wii play or Wii Play: Motion", so I went ahead on my computer with my 64 GB sd card I used to put the game's files, put it onto my computer and began the search. After some time, I found some games I found called romspure, but after some thinking, I wasn't sure if that's gonna work considering the fact when I try to open Wii sports club got on, giving me an unknown error. But, I wasn't sure what to do and wondered if Wii-emulated games would work on Wii u, help?

Forwarders or injectors, like UWUVCI, would probably do the trick if you want to play games by clicking on them through the Wii U menu and immediately going to said game. But playing Wii games without going to the vWii requires an emulator that no one has ever made (to my knowledge)… because there’s a native Wii already built into the Wii U.

No, just use the Wii in your Wii U. Either homebrew your vWii and use USB Loader (download the vWii option), or run the Wii game through UWUVCI and upload the Wii game to the Wii U the same as you would any other Wii U game you want to inject to the Wii U menu (illegally or not).

If you want to somehow play the game without using the Wii in your Wii U, then you can't.

If the games you want to play are on eshop. Just use Nusspli to download (slowly) them, so they'll install on the console like any normal wii u games. Or you can just dig through archive dot org for the Wii games in nus/wup format, download them, put em on the sd card and install them like so.

This is probably the simplest route and you don't even need to touch the vwii side (I think, I don't really use vWii because I use dolphin instead).

    sleeping with uremum

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
