Hey - I have installed the RetroArch channel and placed all the associating files on the SD, but it just displays the splash screen then boots me back to the Wii U menu whenever I go to launch? Help! I am running cbhc.

Sorry. I don't own a Wii u myself yet. But I am very interested into the retroarch scene. I own a pi3 with retropie on it.
I read that on the retroarch tutorial:
"If you get a white screen when you start RetroArch, you're missing the assets package. If you can navigate the white menus, go to "Online Updater" and select "Download Assets". Otherwise, download the assets here and extract it to sd:/retroarch/media. The next time you open RetroArch, all should be well."
Maybe it can help you.

Hey thanks for the response! Unfortunately, I tried that straight away, and it didn't work. I will try and figure it out when I have time.

Ps i'm sure you'll love your Wii U.. :D

    @FlareReZ what language would you reccomend to start with, to learn DS coding? Just curious
  • FlareReZ @ FlareReZ:
    devkitPro by defaults use C and C++. So I suppose you start off with C first and then move onto C++.

    Because C++ is more complex than C.
