I assume this is an issue with the injections themselves, as vWii boots fine and the Nintendont forwarder can run GC games from my SD card. I just don’t have the space for all my games on my SD card and I’d prefer to have all my games on my home screen with the other consoles anyway. Neither injections I created myself with the Injector Tool nor pre-made injections from the USB Helper work (but injections for other consoles from both programs work fine)

I’m using a Sandisk external SSD with a powered USB hub. Could that be the source of the issue? If so could someone recommend a better option? And maybe a cheaper one, I’d prefer to not spend another $100 on a hard drive if I can avoid it lol.


Update: Figured out a (somewhat limited) solution! Just moved my Wii and Gamecube titles onto the system memory and they work fine now. My guess is it has something to do with the reboot into Wii mode, as if the hard drive can’t be read in time for vWii to boot it. I’ve read plenty of times that people typically fix this with a powered hard drive or a Y cable, but my drive is plugged into a powered USB hub plugged into the Wii U and runs all other titles installed on the drive just fine, Wii U included, so there must be something weird going on with vWii and the hard drive.

Anyway, if you stumble across this thread: if all else fails, just move your games onto system memory and accept that you’ll be limited to 32 GB. Not a perfect solution, but a solution nonetheless!

    Thing is , the videos work fine in the Edge Dev and Canary builds. But whatever the fix they made was, has never been pushed to Beta or Stable builds. Its been that way for as far back as I tested. Which was Edge 84. They are on 125 now.

    @RedColoredStars, Yeah, and I was in quite a mood at that time. I would consider choosing Firefox or Opera instead, been using Firefox for over 7 years now than Chrome.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Tried contacting Nintendo to see if they can reach out to MS about it. But Nintendo said the videos are working fine. Without enough people saying no, they don't work fine, it will never get fixed.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    I have Firefox and used it for many years. But Edge runs noticible faster on my pc at both opening and loading pages.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I don't think Nintendo will know anything about troubleshooting Edge. They mostly do technical support regarding their console family.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tell them you downloaded their trailer without permission

    Good one, Ken.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Right. But they could create a ticket that gets forwarded to the proper team. I think Nintendo would care that their videos aren't working on a major browser

    Chrome is like "BRRRRRRRR" but I dislike the fact it's a powerhouse, and the fact that Manifest v3 exists
