Hacking The Legend of Zelda BOTW DEMO being copied to an SD card!

[mustafag32g]

how the hell would they dump the game? Does it not need soldering, and what about people in line, and staff workers?

I don't think we know at this point. I don't think we've had the chance to work with an in development demo before.

Cool thank you for the quick reply. But what about developed and released demos? Have any wii u demos actually ever worked better on CEMU than their complete game counter parts. OR for any emulator for that matter?

All you need is a kernel exploit, which NWPlayer123 and maybe other people (?) ported. Either way, it's working, so just wait for now.

not going to say it doesn't peek my interest ,but i would be a lot more happy if a someone leaked the MML3 demo

A demo of a full game would just be a small game to the Wii U, and should be fairly polished. The code of Zelda BotW is still spaghetti, presumably, and likely will be more difficult to emulate. Don't quote me on this, though, as I'm not *that* familiar with how emulators and indev demos work.

Does anyone have a picture or video of what the Zelda Wii U setups look like? Can you just pop an SD in the console? I'd assume the Wii U would be in some sort of case or enclosure.

The information in the OP is presumably incorrect, the SD cards are locked down so they're using TCPGecko to dump it over the network.

why piss off the big N now?
i'd rather wait and not have the full game be blocked from loading through loadiine

And how do you expect them to do that? They can't touch us as long as we don't update.

Ah, that makes more sense. Kinda surprised all of the consoles are connected to the internet though. Unless they set up a cell phone hotspot and connect the Wii U to it without anyone noticing.

Hmmm, interesting. How can they get TCPGecko on a Wii U without SD access? Does TCP not need SD access? (Apologies, I actually haven't fiddled with that yet)

Ok that's tricky and actually makes a lot of sense

How do you expect them to run the exploit without internet access?

You can load payloads from the internet.

The hardest part was porting the kexploit to run on CAT-R units.

If people are really doing this, I hope they realize that what they are doing is a federal offense, with many, many years worth of prison time and not being able to own any electronic device for the rest of their life ...

Is it really worth that?

Just gonna say this, it wouldn't be the first thing this guy has leaked.

"Oh Noes!!! i obdated mah Pii O. Plz nees dongrad tu plas Zerdo Demo."

Ahh, I see. Thank you.

Oh no, it's not worth going to jail over...but that's definitely not going to stop some people.

You just summed up all of hacking in one post.

There's a huge difference between leaking something and stealing info with the means they are apparently using, but they don't need to listen to me, they can listen to their lawyer instead.
