I feel some mods coming to this. Would love to see this combined with wup installer. Maybe even implement a title ID/key library to make it easier to select the games... GUI wouldn't hurt either. Regardless, this is a HUGE step. Thanks a lot.

Awesome job if not a little late in my case atleast.

I see it suffers the same problem as RetroArch slow Network Speeds or SDCard Speed Slow.

But Great Job Man I am always glad to see WiiU Brew. :yayu:

Let me get this straight ... with that, you download games like an eShop and install straight from Wii U? I was having problems with my MicroSD not having enough space for the games I wanted to install, if it's going to download and install straight to Wii U this is a nice hand on the wheel for me (besides it is very practical not need the PC to download the games )

Pretty sure you still need the ticket for the game... and i'm pretty sure it downloads the content to your SD card.

Oh... So I'll still need to buy a bigger MicroSD xD

I thought it downloaded and installed right into Wii U's internal memory (or HD) like eShop itself, but still, it is a very practical app, it is very annoying to have to download on the PC and then have to pass the MicroSD and only then install on Wii U with WUP.

If you wanna pirate you need to do some sacrifices, it has always been like that, its just that the 3DS spoiled alot of people with the Freeshop.

Good job, my dude. I wonder if this will let me download game updates, then? because being on Mocha, the dns settings required make it so it whines about not being able to do game updates for any of my games.

why do you even block updates with a DNS? I don't think there will be any new updates but even if that happens you can just delete one folder with ftpiiu-everywhere

Hello,

I am on 5.5.4, and I put the DNS in case.

you can remove the DNS, then update the game, and then reset the DNS. After all depends on which version is your Wii U?

WupDownlaoder is perfect! The only thing is that it would be cool if in the application is a title id list where we can search the game.
