Homebrew Is the Wii U worth Modding?

[WaffleRaccoon]

So I still have my Wii U that I got for my Birthday long time ago and I'm thinking of selling it because it takes up too much space on my shelf. I was thinking about Modding it but is it worth it? Should I just Mod or sell the Wii U?

You're probably not going to make much money off of selling git so I would keep it. It's definitely worth modding as much as a regular wii. Most wii u games aren't worth playing/require a game in the disc drive for you to launch them anyways.
At most I could see you selling it for $60 and it's definitely worth $60 in enjoyment

It's 100% worth hacking. You can play any Wii U, Wii and GameCube game.

Mythical what on earth are you on about? Not one single game requires a disc to be in the disc drive to be launched. Yes the old loadiine gx2 app did but that is an out of date app. For about the last 4 years we have the strangely named Brazilian method which installs games directly to nand or hdd and DOESN'T require any disc ever.

only VWii is worth hacking. there is fuck all on the wiiu itself. and all wii modding methods will work on it still.

It's amazing that Mythical's answer was voted best while it gives false information, as AmandaRose pointed out.

Thank you Dust2dust I'm at a total loss with that one lol

Edit VinsCool has kinda fixed it now

I was never able to get wii u games to load through other methods. My wiiu has been known to not act like others (you can see a thread where I tried to modify it with many peoples help to no avail if you care to find it). I only offered methods that I know work, even if there are other methods. The question wasn't really about disc loading though, more about if it's worth to keep a wiiu yes? Maybe focus more on this instead of using moderator power 0-0

yes, definitely
