Gotta be honest, I'm very, very tempted to update to 5.4.0. I don't know why, I really don't, but I feel an insatiable urge, yet, doing so is something I will more than likely regret later, especially as the scene has just begun. I've had a Wii U since 2012 and been waiting for this, and yet....I feel...off? Anticlimactic? I don't know.

wait just a little longer until there is a way to dump your NANDs.

Edit: Wow that almost sounds sexual haha

including creating UCap (stream gamepad/TV to computer for visualizing/recording)
That will be freaking awesome! I would even pay for that! I always wanted to start gaming on Youtube but didn't have a capture card. I don't know when Nintendo will incorporate "normal video files" in Smash (whatever format that may be, Nintendo has a history with AVI), but it sounds like something that will get more people playing Wii U.

EDIT: I already updated, someone was giving out free games.

Well, I don't too. So, I didn't test it if it was saved correctly.
I'm gonna take remaking requests from people, do you want me to remake any level from a super mario bros. game? Don't request for super mario bros. 2(doki doki panic remake), I hate it.
But first, let's hope that saving is working correctly.
Unless the developers implemented this in the past few days, saving is not possible with the editor and as far as I know, your NSMBU editor is pretty old. Making levels in an editor without being able to save is a waste of time. All custom levels that have been shown so far were made with the NSMBW reggie and converted to NSMBU's format with a hex editor.

Well, what I do is that I save the 'bin files of the level'(course1.bin, etc..) using the editor, then I put them in a new folder called "course", then pack the folder using SARCPack by NWPlayer. Shouldn't that work?

I've tried. Seems this turd is clinging on something fierce.

I believe the post from the other site is false. Why no pics? Does it need a connection to a TV for your camera to work? No error? The 3DS has a blue screen. My WiiU said there was an error and I managed to get the format prompt in windows to show.

That's where it acts funny. I get the format prompt twice and windiskimager will recognize the drive. When I try to dump it, windiskimager errors out saying the disk is not large enough.

I think there has to be some way to externally power the chip, or find a way to disable the boot process and still power the emmc (like grounding the crystal in the 4gb emmc 360's).

I really don't mind waiting for the 5.4.0 exploit. As long as I can play games I'm good.

it disn't for me.

(yes I intentionnaly let my wiiu download the update on purpose) :D
the thing worked properly for me.
Perhaps it had to do with me using it before the update was fully downloaded each time. (if that can actually effect it)

Regardless, it still removed the update each time, which is the most important part of using it.

PSA: The best way to block updates is via your router's parental controls. If you use OpenDNS (like I did), then you're at risk of your IP changing thus not getting update protection from OpenDNS. Router Parental Controls ensures against dynamic IP changes.
