Hello!!!!!:D
Recently (approximately 2 weeks) I decided to install the homebrew channel and other utilities using the 3dshacksguide.
After finishing the guide, I decided to install a game through FBI since I discovered that the freeshop was no longer working, the game installed was Pokemon Omega Ruby from the US region.

Yesterday I finished the history of the game and I would like to uninstall it from the console since I do not have much space in the SD, the problem is that I do not know if I can uninstall it from the system menu since the game was installed through a .cia, and I read on some pages with publications from 2016 to 2018 that they must be uninstalled from Emunand (I don't have this installed) or something like that and others say press R on the FBI to uninstall it there.
Could someone tell me the most current method to uninstall games?

I have a 32 GB SD, but it's almost full because I had games installed before installing homebrew.
To uninstall games, I can use the system menu or FBI.
There is no need to use an Emunand or something similar, right?

PS: Thanks for the help:)

Yes. Emunand is obsolete and has been for quite some time, don't worry about it just go ahead and uninstall.

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Carrying a PC or phone is so old school!
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
