So I'm gonna go ahead and push this out, this is a program that pulls data from Reddit to generate content for the Wara Wara Plaza. It's not done but it's in enough of a working condition that I felt that I've teased it on here enough to at least give you guys something to try yourselves. There is however, a couple things to note:

• This program is not currently very user friendly, it requires you to compile it from source, and can only be run from the command line
  
  
• It ONLY generates the XML file, you have to manually put the file on the SD card, and you have to use SDCafiine as well, there is instructions on the Github page
  

If you want to check it out, here's the link to the Github page.

And if you wanna see what your output should be, you can check it out on my website, it updates every four hours.

I'm currently working on making a WUPS plugin to automatically download the file and apply it, but don't expect that for awhile. I'll update this post if I make any progress.



Edit: I've released a newer version that uses a config file so you don't have to compile from source:https://github.com/CaramelKat/Wii-U-XML-Generator/releases/tag/v0.1-alpha

If you have any issues loading it, check my website, it will tell you their is an error and on what line, the Wii U cannot render special characters so you will have to manually remove them if you want to try it out, I'm working on a fix for this that will be out on the next release.

Edit 2: Here's a high quality video of this in action thanks to Koba on my Discord server:



Edit 3: Fixed the invalid character error! and removed the title id for TVii that I forgot to remove that definitely didn't just crash the whole Wii U when it was launched, sorry about thathttps://github.com/CaramelKat/Wii-U-XML-Generator/releases/tag/v0.2-alpha

I think it would be nice to have Gbatemp on my Wara Wara Plaza Screen on my WiiU ...
maybe a colaberation between some coders could make this happen .... one can dream !
