I just got my Wii U installed with Homebrew Launcher and Wup installer. I know how to download and install Wii U games (was not easy finding where and how). I need a simple and straight forward explanation on how to run Wii games on Wii U using Wup installer.

I'd really appreciate any help on this as I have a few games from Wii I really want to play on my Wii U like Xenoblade Chronicles.

Unless something has changed in the last 6 months you don't. You softmod your Wii mode on your Wii U then use a USB HDD to play games from just like on a real Wii.

Thanks for the replies but it seems there is no easy way to actually do it...guess I'll leave it alone until I find someone that can do it for me. Thanks again guys!

Yes Xander... is not that easy as install Wii U games... For Wii games you will first need to hack de vWii menu of the Wii U. Is not too complicated but, you know..

Hi
Virtual Console Games are basically seen as WiiU games by the console, so you can install them the same way as WiiU games.

Other solution, Dump your Wii Games and inject them using for example TeconMoon's WiiVC Injector.
This way you can use WUP Installer (and you can customize Wii games to use the Mablet)

Bye
