Hello dear gbatemp community.
I have been browsing the forums for a while now and I see there are many interesting solutions to launching custom apps on the Wii U.
But I have some general questions, and I would appreciate it, if someone has some general directions for me.
I'm aware that the questions are definitely answered somewhere, at some point, but please bear with me and the fact that I'm too impatient to read through every single thread
That's about it, please have mercy on my soul and thank you very much for your patience and for reading

But I have some general questions, and I would appreciate it, if someone has some general directions for me.

- I would like to create an all-in-one Nintendo System with my Wii U, with which I can launch Wii U Backups, Wii Games, as well as GC, N64 and maybe GBA
- What storage system is recommendable? I would opt for an internal SD card, if possible, to store everything in one place. Thoughts?
- What is the maximum capacity that the Wii U will support after "soft-modding" it?
- I see there are models as big as 512GB for ridiculously low prices (R.i.P I can't post hyperlinks) -- how can this be, other than the cards being made in China?
- Any recommendations for cheap and fast loading storage methods?
- Will micro-SD + adapter work inside the usual SD Slot of the Wii U? I'm not sure I'd like the look of having an USB SD card reader attached to my Wii U
- My go to solutions would be Haxchi in combination with Loadiine GX2 ?
- Will I have any trouble with those methods while being on 5.5.3 E Firmware? I'm thinking the E stands for Europe?
- I have the five original Wii U games that I would still like to be able to play online. Is that possible after dumping them onto the SD? I don't want to be using Discs no more.
- Solved: Works after dumping my own discs with disc2app, and then installing them with WUD Installer GX2 to my NAND (console's Internal System Storage)
- Are loading times better on internal SD Card, compared to Disc? I notice that my Smash Bros. Wii U is loading rather slowly from Disc.
That's about it, please have mercy on my soul and thank you very much for your patience and for reading
