The Wii U console I just bought is on version 5.3.2, unhacked.
I've tried the DNS blocking methods to, well, block the updates (which works, in a way. It shows the update as cancelled in Download Management), but it still won't let me link a NNID or access the Nintendo eShop without updating first. That would allow me to purchase the DS game and do CBHC, which is my main objective.
All the guides in this forum - as far as I know - require a console that already has CFW (and use homebrew like WUP Installer) installed in it, which isn't my case. Should I just update to 5.5.5 and try the exploit? Unless there's something I have missed, I don't see any other way of getting this right.
