Hey guys,
I'm getting so frustrated currently and I was wondering if you could help me with a problem. I would even pay for it:

For quite some time now I'm messing with two of my favorite Wii games on my WiiU. The problem is, they are NTSC and my WiiU and vWii are PAL. With WiiFlow SRLs I get them to work, but I'd love to have those games on my WiiU menu. Patching their video modes or regions with Uwuvci does not work and changing vWiis Region makes some other injections unplayable.

So I wondered, if I could create two WUHB files / Aroma forwarders, that lead me to each of the SRLs. But whatever I do I don't get WUHB packer to start. -.-

So there I'm asking, if you could quickly help me out. :) I would be so thankful for it! Here I posted more details:

I really want nothing more than an app to alter an installed game's titleID.

SDcafiine is cool but obviously all mods for one game would have to share the same save game. This isn't that much of a deal for Mario Kart 8 (apart from time trials obviously) than it is for things like NSMBU.

How cool would it be to have a folder on the Wii U homescreen that has multiple (modded) versions of NSMBU in it? Just like in the old Wii days, where mods could be patched to an ISO with an altered titleID so we could have them all next to each other in USB Loader GX.

A homebrew where you can find out what type of unlock your console has.

Doesn't this already exist :unsure:?
 
A homebrew that changes the wifi channel that the Wii u and game pad connect between, helpful for people with Star link internet (like me) that can't set a different WiFi channel in their settings
 
an app that let u put wii games installed on wii u on the the vwii channel, that would be very useful because it would fix the problems that some games has thanks to things like vwii enchantment plugin and things like that
 
I'm using my Wii U on a CRT and it plays NES, SNES and GBA games beautifully in 4:3 when the console is set to that. Problem is that whenever you set the console output to 4:3 it makes the entire home menu output in letterbox, which looks very strange on 4:3.

Would it be possible to create an Aroma plugin that makes the Wii U home menu output in 4:3 through stretching? Alternatively a custom theme specifically made for 4:3 without stretched assets.
 
Since we already have Angry Birds Trilogy (Classic, Rio and Seasons) and Star Wars, I think if the Wii U can run Sonic Mania, we can be able to run Angry Birds Space and Star Wars II. Would also like to see it for 3DS too.

I can also provide any version of either game. :)
 
a good idea is possibly a working gmod for wii u with downloadable mods and can also connect to a custom server / the real gmod server
 
Honestly, I hope to see a media player of some sort soon. It's honestly baffling that there's nothing of the sort for the system. I see it on 3DS, PS3, and other such consoles, but nothing on the Wii U? Seems a bit odd.

...Is it because of the vWii? Is the general consensus "There's Wii media players you can install on the vWii, so why bother?" I'm aware of the vWii, I'd just like variety and the capability of using something like a media player without having to head into the vWii.

that and rebooting to the vWii is slower than loading a native Wii U app, plus wiimc can't handle HD video due to being a wii app

You're right! I didn't even think about it like that! Yet another reason that a homebrew media player's a great idea!
That, and vWii not being able to handle newer codecs that a native Wii U mode media center/player could in theory handle

Hello, it's possible to create a plugin to power OFF/ON (not sure ON could works) the Wii U pressing home button 5 seconds for exemple ?
For Bloopair controllers it ca be useful. Thx.

Is it possible to create a way to eject the Wii U game disc using the Gamepad or Pro Controller like we do on the PS3, PS4? Because my flat cable from the front panel of the Wii U is not working and because of this the Power and Eject buttons on the Wii U do not work, I can only play digital games from the HD.
 
How about a plugin that mirrors the display while swapping your left and right analog inputs (and optionally d-pad inputs depending on game control). Love being able to play platformers where you now run from the right to the left. The Genesis classic collection lets you do this, which is really fun for playing the classic Sonic games from a new perspective.
