Are we really going to bring this up again? Yes your Wii U can break due to multiple crashes. Mainly because of the force shut down. Usually happens to Wii U that are from 2013 or 2014. You get an Error code which I call black screen of death. Nintendo got rid of this I think(well mine atleast)

what I read is that there is a very little to no chance of bricking if you don't install CBHC and installing games on external HDD instead of nand ....

It bricks if you crash. If you're playing Usbloader GX on VWii and crash and force shutdown, chances are, you'll brick your Wii U. I mention this cause It's really common for people who uses VWii and play Nintendont or UsbLoaderGX2. It happened to me and I played tenkaichi on a hard drive. My Wii U has never broke due to installing wii u games. It broke once While playing pokken and smash bros but yeah. I know cold boot can brick Wii U. Don't argue if you never experienced or heard of something.

Damn, I never knew a crash could cause a brick. I have haxchi only and have had a few crashes on wii u games where screen froze while loading or froze when going back to main Wii u menu and each time I help power on console to turn off as pressing off from gamepad did not turn console off.

Never thought once that there is a possibility that it may brick due to this.

Ah didn't know crashes could cause a brick
.. Never read that until now... All guides say that there is a risk of brick only if you do a bad flash of system files.... Or update haxchi ou factory reset with Cold boot installed

if I play the wii games only via wii u VC injection, is there a change of bricking?

I have the old wii and have been using usb loader for years now and never bricked .. so the wii u is more prone to bricks?

I've injected hundreds of Wii/GC/N64/DS/SNES/GB/GBA games and played tons of them no brick. There's no reason to be worried using that method.
