Homebrew The Wii U Homebrew Request Thread

[elpapadelospollitos]

Some way to adjust the analog deadzones on the Wii u gamepad, akin to revita on PS Vita.

There are ways to do this for a lot of external controls but there is not really a homebrew to do this for the official gamepad.

I did a quick search but couldn't find if this request was already posted

Some games don't have the options for user to invert the X-Axys or Y-Axys for camera control & movement on the Right & Left Stick.

Is there a way to load a homebrew app (before loading the game) that allows you personalize the axis's directions, and with some hotkey combination, to enable it once the game is loaded?

I found dissapointing that games like Call of Duty, Lego City Undercover and some others, force you to use the Camera control as they like, and not as the player likes. And therefore i have not been able to actually enjoy those games properly

How about an app that idles the console as much as possible while it shuts down the game pad and then shuts the console down completely 5-10 minutes later (user setable).

Reason? To let the console cool after a vigorous gaming session. As we know the more work they do the more heat is produced. Shutting it right off after of course kills the fan and heat goes up for a bit before it starts cooling. This would be easiser on your hardware letting it idle and cool down before shutting down on its own. I do it manually now by letting it sit at the main menu for a bit before I turn it off.

FIRST IT WOULD BE NICE IF ALL WHAT ARE CONSIDERED "BUGS " or STUPID THINGS NOT/OR DONE BY NINTENDO on the WIIU were CORRECTED:
- Be Able to Play WII Games with GAMEPAD any Time!!
- Be Able to SHUTDOWN WIIU, Whenever you set it off, A wiiU that NEVER FREEZES and accepts any shutdown from remote
- Be able to have same thing on menu Screen and your TV AND GAMEPAD at the same time, No Two screen mode, just one screen like on the wii and controllable TV screen with the gamepad, If I have the gamepad in HAND and look the screen, I must put the menu on the Gamepad screen to control, that is a kind of "BUG".
- Be able to use Gamepad pro OR wiimote OR GAMEPAD whatever GAME, SOFTWARE, MENU you are....do you believe nintendo would have done a computer where you cannot use the mouse in menus or keyboard in games?? The wiiu is very nice but Bullshitted because of this having to change control very often!!

I'd like to see full access to the Wii U system menu opened up. So we can turn OFF warnings and crap that the Wii U still thinks it needs to inform us about.

Aamibos emulator similar to Wuumibo for 3ds

Aamibos emulator similar to Wuumibo for 3ds

I would like to see a fully realized Amiibo Collector / Admin app. Something that would allow you to scan and catalog all your Amiibos, then display the information they contain and which games they can access. Then also the ability to COPY back and forth Amiibo data and store it. Some Amiibos can work on various titles, being able to save and load the data from these would be great. I understand some people are wanting it to FAKE the Amiibo process for games, which is fine, but I would like to see the main focus be on collecting, cataloging and adminstrating the Amiibo data.

Is there a webpage or blog with that information? Maybe a first step would be to create such web and then look for a way to implement it in all Amiibo-compatible devices, such as Wii U, 3ds and Switch.

Something like TagMo running directly on the Wii U? Note that NFC chips have some safety functions through, so even TagMo is a bit limitted in what it can do: https://github.com/HiddenRamblings/TagMo/wiki#limitations

Thanks for the info. I'm happy my reasoning was correct and this has already become a reality. I think TagMo running directly on Wii U doesn't solve the main issue: having to purchase nfc tokens. I'd rather emulate them. Although I admit custom nfc coins/cards are cool to collect though

I use this app on the phone

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/colliibo/id984765441

As well as this "Sort It!" apps for collecting and cataloging various collections like games, books, movies, etc.

But these are very limited and clunky.

An app that does all the collecting things, plus editing, saving etc, and mingles with the currently active game. Maybe even some hack/cheats that didn't previously exist.

The price of NFCs is NOT the main issue. It's the functionality.

On that last one there, I know the 3DS has Thenaya for writing amiibo to NTAG215 if you have a n3DS or o3DS and the scanner accessory. It doesn't exactly help you do this on the Wii U, but it's an option if you just want to make cards/stickers, and since I know you did NUSspli, you might be able to do something similar for this platform.

Personally, I think the more devices that can do this the better.
