Hacking Is There a Way to Play Wii Wad Games Without Installing Them to vWii

[SuperDan]

Well I've been having a WIIU Season with the boys for a few weeks.. I haven't played it in ages... So we added about 40 new Wii original games.. Been enjoying them I still like motion control games... So then we remembered some Wad games.. ( we was looking for a good motion pool game on Wii which lead me to wiiware games) Midnight Pool.. So I installed that & it's fun. Which leads me to my point... I have 300 Wiiware Wad Games... I was just going to install will wad manager then copy to my SD card..... But that didn't work out like it should as the game would Copy... To SD.. But it would not load at all.. Always FAILED from SD.. But would work from the Wii Menu... Or I would have just continued to Copy all to SD... I was hoping there was a loader or a way to make USB loader gx or Wiiflow or something similar.. To just load Wad Files... ?

I think .wad files can't be played directly. It's like a .cia file for the 3ds. So no afaik. Except you play them via emulator.

You can install them to an emunand on your vwii's hard drive and load them through usbloader gx. I have most of the wiiware catalog playable on my Wii U in this way.
