I guess I don't know how to install this. I put PPSSPP folder on the root of my sd card and in Wii U/apps there's the PPSSPP.rpx, but it doesn't show in homebrew launcher? The rest of the programs are .elf and this is .rpx so how do I make it show up?

I tried putting the folder in a folder and changing the name to boot.rpx but it didn't help.

Edit: I googled the problem and I guess I just had a really old version of homebrew launcher that didn't support .rpx. Will update.

Is it normal that if I select PPSSP in homebrew menu I am able to exit out of it back to homebrew menu but if I select forwarder when I exit it goes back to PPSSPP?
 
I have more PSP games than will fit on my SD card, but I'm also already using an 2tb external hd. Am I stuck to switching between 2 different USB drives, or limiting my number of PSP games to fit on my SD card? I'm hoping there is a way to inject the PSP games into the HD like my wii and gc games.

Have you tested these games? From my understanding not a whole lot of games work on this. I mean at full speed.

And to answer your question no you can't inject these.

I think unfortunately we will never see a new update of this thing, it is sad to see that a horrible thing like PSClassic Mini ended up getting more attention than the Wii U xD

But I'm glad at last they even made a version of PPSSPP for Wii U, it runs most games, I even finished MegaMan: Maverick Hunter X recently in it and now I'm playing Project Diva and MegaMan: Powered Up, I just wanted to have at least one Improvement in the performance of Kingdom Hearts: Birth by sleep, this game is really injurious when you have more than 3 enemies on the screen.

but so far the rest of the games I've tested until they are well playable on Wii U.

Damn, everyone hated the Wii U huh?...

The Wii U is a console with excellent games and a good concept (when well used as in ZombiU, Rayman Legends and Batman Arkham City), here in Brazil many people prefer to buy a Wii U to a Nintendo Switch for having a better cost x benefit (most only buys to play BOTW and Mario Kart 8 in a cheaper way than the Switch or are only in Netflix xD) but as much as he has his qualities he was one of the biggest sales failures of Nintendo, you can understand why many people do not like it even if actually though it is a good console.

A lot of devs just jumped ship and move to Wii U, one reason I'm so cynical of the hacking scene.

I have a Wii U and a Switch and I will not be getting rid of either one. Both serve different purposes.

Wii U: Wii U games, Wii games, Gamecube games, (most) DS games, (most) N64 games
Switch: Switch games, the rest of the N64 games that don't work on Wii U, MAME games, PSP games, PS1 games.

I know some of those on Switch work on Wii U but not with individual game forwarders which is what I like.
 
Well, as PPSSPP was recently ported to the Switch, I believe that unfortunately the Wii U version will fall by the wayside.

At least the version of Wii U is very stable and many of the games are very playable, I was able to enjoy it well and I am happy that at least they have made a version for Wii U.
