Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

Guys, I'm planing on hacking my wiiu, it's on version 2.1.0 now, I have to update it to 5.3.2...

I got a mario party 10 disc from a friend, but I'm afraid it could be reprint and have newer version on it...

here's what the case look like, and what's written on the disc:






I couldn't find anything on the internet about the firmware on this version of mario party 10...

How can I be sure if it has 5.3.2?

When I insert the disc, will it say what version it'll update? will I be able to cancel the update if it's not the 5.3.2?

 

Can you still play online when launching a game through Loadline ?

 

N. O.

 

It's 5.3.2 don't worry.

 

The PS3 started to turn around right about when the jailbreak dongles started coming out.

 

Thanks! updated with it and now it's on 5.3.2

 

Merry Christmas to all who care about it, and Marry Christmas to all those singles who are dating someone called Christmas (see here, http://www.canada411.ca/search/?stype=si&what=Christmas&where= there's a whole bunch of them)

So we may not have gotten a present from Santa Hykem yet, but finally The Pinball Arcade is going to be released for Wii U early 2016 (announced in 2012 as an on-or-near-launch title), however I don't think it's going to be anywhere near the quality of the PS4 version and having the DMD on your gamepad isn't going to be the 'killer feature' to play it on Wii U.

That being said, my Wii U is still on 3.1.0 and staying there until I hear more. With EmuNAND it won't matter anyway what version your SysNAND is, but I'm hoping for an easier/more reliable userland exploit.

 

I'm just waiting for everyone to upgrade to latest once it's released so I don't have to keep doing everything myself, takes lots of work.

 

I'm on 5.5.0 already. Can't wait to get access to Kernel, IOSU and/or Userland

 

Once it's released being the operative phrase here; however if you are on the latest firmware and it only works 1 out of 5 times, it might pay off to be on a lower FW where it might actually only fail 1 our of 5 times. But indeed, once there's a release that'll make all the difference.

 

It seems so but we should only discuss this once the exploit is out.

 

I'm sure it will become more and more stable on the latest FW after release (if it isn't already at release), especially because there will probably lots more people on a FW of 5.4-5.5 than below.

 

It actually isn't that bad once you figure out how to trick it into working, I have it auto-load Google when I go into the browser, and then I press the button in the top left to go to the splash menu with bookmarks,, press X to bring the curtains, *wait for the blue loading bar to finish* and then run my bookmark. Because it's a graphics exploit you need to trick it into working for you, and the curtains somehow help that.

 

people are acting as if this IOSU exploit will be permanent

it's been public for a long time that it won't be permanent

 

Probably with an Emunand solution, but that will take a long time to make it work

 

if only the way to trigger is stable, since you can easily access the browser through quick launch menu, and make things less frustrating.

 

Saying this dont help anything just discourages other devs, you dont need to say this but you are just a kid and i understand.
Sorry, i dont criticizing you just giving advice. Please, understand me what i want to say when i said "kid" not to.offend.
Hykem is a more experienced and older guy than you and he dont need saying this even people disturbing him.

 

Is it possible to make the Wii U go into a "low power mode" so we can keep the exploit while using as little electricity as possible

 

there is a much easier way to make downloads start after nnupatcher, hard shutdown the wiiu by holding the power button reboot and they will all start all the time since after hard shutdown the wiiu takes its time to search for a system update again, just a tip for the future

 

Why wouldn't it be permanent? How about on SysNAND you set the Internet settings for local network with no DNS and no default gateway and a netmask of 255.255.255.0 So you can only access local net, e.g. 196.168.1.1 where you webserver is running that serves up the exploit but your WiiU won't be able to access the Internet. Once the "haxx" take over your WiiU, it can start a 'unsynced' EmuNAND which has correct Internet settings. If it auto-updates, just restore your old EmuNAND and disable Internet on it until it's fixed again.

Just need to know if there's any New-3DS like crypto key setups and if there are any issues that would prevent EmuNAND from working; on 3DS this is well understood and many CFWs offer EmuNAND support. I wouldn't be surprised to see it within a year of a working Userland-Kernel-IOSU combo being released.
