I originally announced this in the following thread: http://gbatemp.net/threads/wii-u-hacking-discussion.367489/page-78

But I'm redirecting the conversation to this specific thread to prevent it from getting any more cluttered than it already is . I appreciate all the work that's being done by all the others, but feel like I should give that thread some more breathing room to make it less confusing for random people jumping in to the conversation.

Questions? Comments? Flames? (just kidding about that last part, but I know somebody's going to charm us with some negativity so why not joke about it )

 

Good luck?

Please add trolls to ignore list.

 

Uhh... How is it gonna work? If it's like the 3DS then region is part of the data of the game itself. And the communications will be encrypted.
Will you just look for a specific address/byte to spoof?

 

How would dumps be made then?

 

Obviously not.
Read the article first

 

There is definitely something in hardware side exploitable.

 

Yeah, fuck you.

 

E--excuse me, did you just refer to a part of the Wii U code as an exe file, and yet claim to know more about the drive than TSK?

 

He has the common key and he's been dumping and decrypting a multitude of games, I think he knows what he's talking about.

 

exe just means executable in general. He doesn't mean the WiiU is running .exe files lol
