My Wii U won't work or turn on anymore, but I want to get all the save files out of my Wii U formatted hard drive. Is there any program or anything I can use to get the save files?
Hardware My Wii U broke down, how do I get my save files off my external hard drive?

The save files themselves are also encrypted, so unless you made periodic backups of your save files using something like SaveMii, you're probably out of luck. Someone might come along and correct me by saying you can get them if you have your OTP and SEEPROM backed up.
I haven't got my OTP or SEEPROM backed up.. So does this mean all those save files and games are stuck on that hard drive?
You're basically SOL without any backups.
Assuming it isn't the board itself that broke, you could swap it into another machine if they're that important.
PSA: backup your saves.

The only game save i have backed up is my botw save.. the rest are lost now. Thanks for helping anyway
if its just the power supply, you can get an old wii power supply and shave off the corner of the plug to fit in the wii u. its what i use.
It provides less power per port than the Wii though, so I don't think that's the reason.
It's basically the same CPU only higher clocked and with more cores, seems obvious that it would require more power.
late response, but my wii u broke due to a 3rd party power supply supposedly frying it. I got an official one later and plugged it into my Wii U and nothing worked.

Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.+1 -

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked." -
