Hello, I am new to the vWii modding. I want to know if it is ok to put the homebrew channel on a 5.5.0 U console. I don't want my wii u console getting bricked
What do you mean iOS under 200If you do everything right, and dont mess with ios under 200 you'll be fine.
And just to be safe, make a nand and ios'es backup.

So will it work on 5.5.0?Follow this guide: http://gbatemp.net/threads/full-vwii-softmod.339899/
