Hacking Letting Wii U update games installed with WUP Installer GX2

[drunk_shinobi]

Hello folks,

I've recently gotten around to installing CFW (haxchi, no cold boot) on my Wii U. I recently installed Xenoblade Chronicles X using WUP Installer GX2 and accidentally let the console update it - using their official servers, I assume. Is there any risk of getting banned from the eshop, etc? I am in the US.

PS: Interestingly/funnily enough, I actually do own the game.

To my knowledge nobody has been banned by updating a pirated game. Also AFAIK (correct me if I'm wrong) the Wii U is not sending any information to the severs which could identify the game as being pirated.

That said you should be fine, don't worry.

//EDIT: Also let me tell you an open secret: Hundrets of consoles are sending "NUSspli/1.17 (WarezLoader, like WUPDownloader)" to the official Nintendo servers since around a year. From that consoles none have been banned (also Nintendo still hasn't blocked that useragent string from their servers). Nintendo simply doesn't care about the Wii U anymore.

I did with most of my WUP installed games, still not banned, my kids played Splatoons online for ages on WUP install version of the game, still not banned, both WiiU are online, again still not banned.
