Hacking [Video] First Wii U Homebrew Game [Pong]

[Relys]

Here's a sneak preview of a little something I put together after Hykem and I figured out how to use the OSScreen functions while analysing OSFatal:


If anyone wants to test it out, it's available on my website: http://sylerclayton.com/blog/Wii-U-Homebrew/

Source is available here: https://github.com/Relys/libwiiu/tree/master/osscreenexamples/pong

Jeez man, you've got you're finger in so many pies. how do you do it all? you seem to be working on everything these days!
great job.

 

[nastys]

Does this work on 5.2.0+?

THE WHEELS ARE IN MOTION

 

[FPSRussi4]

That's great and all, where's the piracy tho <---THIS IS SARCASM, I AM NOT SERIOUS

/s

That's pretty cool actually, here's hoping for more

 

[c4p0]

Good Luck!

 

[dojafoja]

Yay! Pong demo is way better than a 'hello world' demo. Thanks for that. BTW the JS parsing you implemented is genious, a simple solution to ensure the proper payload is used for each specific version... Love it. Good work guys ☺

And so it begins

 

[ShadowOne333]

it has begun!
Oh God I am hyped!

Relys, do you by any chance know what firmware did Hykem use for this exploit?
Is it <5.1.0 or has the exploit been ported successfully to 5.3.2?

YES!!

I hope that soon (2015-2018) we'll be able to have hacked Wii U consoles with region free, play our backups and more. It's really shitty how restrictive the Wii U is.

Well if you start now instead of bitchin and leaching then maybe 50 years down the line we will have piracy.... Or not

I guess backups might be a little off-topic, since the hacking team are settings restrictions to avoid that (I think so).

I am more hyped about a possible DS/N64 emulator to finally have all the Nintendo console games I own in just one tight machine.
Without hoping for Nintendo to put them in the goddamn eShop which is restricted as fuck in the library of games. And not even counting the copyright restrictions...

Guess you missed that in your desperation. Let it go.

Fpsrunt read above post. I think these guys are purely for homebrew and game modding. (not piracy)

Don't forget saves sharing, and saves backups.

Currently I'm excited for the posibilities:

• RetroArch without game size restriction.
• Faster WiiXplorer
• HD video playback
• Region Free!
• Game mods
• Cheat codes (no online ones though)

It's just wishful list, I hope we got Wii U Homebrew at the same level as Wii, someday.

*sigh* Hey mods, how does one properly display sarcasm here?

It's pretty funny that you gave me a nickname, like how much hatred is in you?

New Webkit exploit has not been made but it's on our todo list.
The firmware in question is 5.0.0.

Great, thanks for the response.
