for starters, THANKS! this and your other video, HUUUGE helps. You made the process real easy. One thing to note, about copying games to a HDD Drive to store them as apposed to the NAND: - download the games to the SD card like its shown in the video - insert your card into the wii u, and have your HDD Drive plugged in when you boot up - format the drive to the wii u - go through haxchi, then go into wupGX2 installer - click on your games, updates, DLCs, hit install - install to the USB drive (HDD Drive). This will install to the drive, not the NAND (the system itself) - after install, power the system down, remove the SD Card - reinsert the SD card into your computer, delete the game from the SD Card (as its now installed on the HDD USB Drive). - Repeat the process to install all your games. You are basically using the Memory card as a transportation device between your computer, and the HDD Drive plugged into the WiiU. I was stuck on this for a long time. Read comments, tried other videos, etc, didn't get really anywhere. Hope this helps others.
You have literally saved my life today. I watched your video of how to mod our WiiU. We had one years ago but id been wanting another one for a long time. Got mine from GameStop for $100. Salesman asked why i wanted one so bad, answered, its just fun for us and our kids. Today, you helped me mod and install our first games. Without you, this would all still been a distant memory. Thank you so much!
Man thank you this video may be 4 years old but it’s still holds up and I am happy to say I can play all of my old video games I remember having when I was younger
hey man you’ve honestly saved me hours online scavenging for usb games which I found very few of, and also having to manually find and replace title keys which are even more rarer to find.. now I’m finally able to enjoy my wii u! thanks for guiding us peasants to the light with your amazing tutorial.
This is crazy! Thanks. Wii U is literally the best console for Nintendo's Archive to everything before the Switch and it's cool to be able to play them on the tv or gamepad. It's the best console for Nintendo emulation.
5:04 For those confused that don't know where to place the update and DLC files in the "install" folder: You place the files below where you put the Game data, do not place the update and DLC files inside the Game data files. I for one do not know what happens if you do put the update and DLC files inside the game files. Putting the update and DLC files below the game worked for me, if you wanna risk it and do the complete opposite then go ahead.
@@ozzyshowmid5648 So far people said that emulators and homebrew on 5.5.5 work just fine. So I think you are okay, to download the program! The 5.5.5 update states that it provides "Improvements to system stability and usability", we are unsure what else they put into this update.

PLEASE ANSWER PRODUCER (DREWTALKS) I'm kind of a noob. Why do you advise to unpack with Loadiine if you're dragging and dropping unpacked games into the install folder to install with WUP installer in the video? This confuses me. I'm doing this for the first time and I'm pretty literal so, though WUP installer is recommended over Loadiine online, I'm just wondering if this was a mistake?
best way is to install it through the Wup Installer in the homebrew launcher. If you haven’t set up homebrew yet, do it. It’s quite easy, most tutorials will likely recommend you download a version of wup installer too so you should be fine but if they don’t, just look up a download for it and put it in the root of your sd card. It’s automatically go in the right spot.
So I see on the list theres also gamecube and wii games, would we be able to simply follow this same process for installing those? I feel like it cant be that easy can it?
U did a great tutorial but u didnt tell us where to put the downloaded wiiu games /in what folder/do we make a folder that says games,dlc,updates or just drop the downloaded games in the install folder? Then install using what app ...does would be very helpful you should do a short prt2 explaining just how get the games on external hard drive once downloaded Thanks
@@GrandeGio95 hey, didn't get a answer but the process is the same as the full game. Just put the dlc or update in the folder with the games, making sure to remove all logos and non A-Z letters. Then install it the same way, you have to run mocha each time before installing them however, hope that helps?
@@MyFootballfootball So I have been successful in installing the updates and games via WUP but when installing the DLC it says that it needs a signature patch. I followed Drew's video on how to mod but I dont remember messing with Mocha. It's on my SD card and on the Homebrew Channel but I've never used it. When I turn on my console all the installed games show up as little icons and I just click and play them; no special loading of any other software or anything because I modded my system with the Brain Age game. So could someone help and guide me on how to install the DLC and also would I have to be running any other software everytime I want to play the game WITH the DLC? Or once I install that's it and I dont have to mess with it again? Thanks.
Brofessor Al-Jaida-Salami You have to download a custom firmware app. I have mocha cfw which allows me to install dlc and play games that are only available on the eshop. Once you get mocha, all you do is run it every time before installing dlc and the download will start. Something to know is that you can only play dlc once you launch mocha cfw so every time you wanna play a game with dlc, u have to launch mocha cfw first and then once it takes you back to the home menu, then you can press on the game with dlc and it will open
Does anyone know if you have to format your flash drive to the wii u to install the games there? Was hoping I could use the same fat32 one that has my wii and gamecube roms, thanks

Download to your desktop. Format usb to fat32. Add install folder to your usb. Put the game into the install folder on your usb. Run hombrew launcher. Run mocha usb. Press a. Go to wupgx2 and it should be there for you to install. Once done, delete from usb. Now put the dlc file in the install folder on your usb. Run hombrew launcher. Run mocha usb. Press a. Go to wupgx2 and it should be there for you to install. Once done, delete from usb. Put the update file in the install folder on your usb. Run homebrew launcher. Run mocha usb. Press a. Run wupgx2.

Quick question after installing the game on sd card and going to install it using homebrew they ask usb or sd i don't have a USB but my sd card does have over 100gb so is it possible to just press the other option ?

Thanks in advance
A number of sources on the internet don't seem to directly answer this question. I have a Wii U, I have a Wii, I have Nintendo game disks - the original disks, so how do I play these Nintendo games in a hacked Wii U or Wii? I don't have ISO files, I have disks. My Wii U is successfully running Homebrew, but I have not installed Nintendont and I suspect it's a non--starter. My Wii won't read the gamecube disks. Again, I have original Nintendo gamecube disks. What do I do? How can I get these games into files so that I can focus on the Wii U homebrew direction?

One thing to note, about copying games to a HDD Drive to store them as apposed to the NAND:
- download the games to the SD card like its shown in the video
- insert your card into the wii u, and have your HDD Drive plugged in when you boot up
- format the drive to the wii u
- go through haxchi, then go into wupGX2 installer
- click on your games, updates, DLCs, hit install
- install to the USB drive (HDD Drive). This will install to the drive, not the NAND (the system itself)
- after install, power the system down, remove the SD Card
- reinsert the SD card into your computer, delete the game from the SD Card (as its now installed on the HDD USB Drive).
- Repeat the process to install all your games. You are basically using the Memory card as a transportation device between your computer, and the HDD Drive plugged into the WiiU.

I can't see the large Wii tickable Box, under filters. The one below 3DS and WiiU, yet on your video it's clearly present. I wanted to try Wii games as well.
You can Use Teconmoons Wii vc injector it allows you to put the Wii game as a forwarder then you can just open it (with cfw) even with some games you can use the gamepad to play

Do you only need to unpack games that have updates/dlc?
also do you need to unpack them when you are going to play them on wii u?
Any method of running the games off the USB?
nu
I have many questions but first is how are you going to put a 15G file into a SD Card? Impossible! Your tutorial say format SD card Fat32 right?
there are tons of third party apps like FAT32formatter than formats cards and drives past Windows limitations
Oh man! Im getting into this tomorrow! Ive never used this database. Looks awesome! I just use loadiine but dang this looks way better!
How long is it supposed to take for the games to install?

I modded Wii u a few years ago but i lost the Sd card, so is there anyway i can get the files back for a new Sd card again to allow me to play my wii ubackup from the USB again, i can still see the HDD thing on the wii u games menu but it does not see anything on usb.
thank you, every video I found about this was for emulating it on pc, not using it on the wii u.
Lol, i don't find Mario kart 8 on this...

Is there a Mac version to unpack or fix iso to
Gabey Babey you could dual boot windows with boot camp or get a virtual windows machine with vmware
Is there any way to put it directly onto the USB? I want to install smash 4 but my SD card is only 8gb and smash is around 12gb. So is there anyway to install it directly onto the USB?
Download to your desktop. Format usb to fat32. Add install folder to your usb. Put the game into the install folder on your usb. Run hombrew launcher. Run mocha usb. Press a. Go to wupgx2 and it should be there for you to install. Once done, delete from usb. Now put the dlc file in the install folder on your usb. Run hombrew launcher. Run mocha usb. Press a. Go to wupgx2 and it should be there for you to install. Once done, delete from usb. Put the update file in the install folder on your usb. Run homebrew launcher. Run mocha usb. Press a. Run wupgx2. Install it
So if they have updates and dlc files, do I drag them in as well or do I install the game first and then copy the dlc/update over?
Just drag them into the installer thats it
I download the game in the helper but I can't find my SD cards installation file
Same here
@@Lilog007 Some people make it look clean I dont know how but when I download with the helper it Always buries the files. they dont just go in the root of the directory. Mine goes Data Folder then USA Folder then Games Folder and they are in the games folder.
Update: still working
So do you need a physical copy at all? Or is this just downloading whatever game for free
Where is the "install" file, i go to my Wii u SD card and i couldn't find it.
You have to make your own. Pretty sure to do this, you'll have to follow a video of how to hack/mod a wii u.
All you have to do is make a simple file in the as card does t need to be anything special
@@go4th349 k thanks!
Will I be able to use my saved games from owned discs? I spent hours cleaning my BOTW disc and it still craps out.
I'm not gonna lie i hacked my wii u with my phone so I can't really do this
rip
how
Does this work with Tiramisu? I know WUP Installer works with it as I've used it for older games but not sure if it works with WiiU titles specifically.
Yeah I'm gonna download "Backups"
Quick question after installing the game on sd card and going to install it using homebrew they ask usb or sd i don't have a USB but my sd card does have over 100gb so is it possible to just press the other option ?
USB helper keeps popping up an injection tool and asking for an ISO. Every file I download is in different formats and I can't get any of them to work.
Can I download and install DS games the same way? Or I need to download an emulator to the Wii U before playing DS games? I have Tiramisu
How do I just drop a game file I already have into it? I need to do that so it will transfer to my install folder on my sd card.
i need help, i was gonna put this game on the WUP Gx2 file and i dont if i was supoosed to put that file in
Whenever I go on the thing with the hazard sign it says could not find games even though I followed all of the steps
Thanks for the help, this video is great and even works now! Just wondering how you would go about playing/installing CFW such as Super Paper Mario ect
So, it still works? And I can download WiiUVC games with it???
I made the folder called install on my SD cards root, but i didnt know if the hbc folder you had in there was also needed? i already have the homebrew channel when i launch thru the mii app
Does this still work for a hacked WII U?
Still works in 2023. Thanks!
4:44 Great selection of games that you have!
Hey can someone help me out I'm confused as hell about this I'm pretty sure I'm maxed out with games that can be shown on my gamepad but I have memory left to install some games if I make a folder will the games go directly into it or do I have to have a free space and then move them into the folder??? Thanks in advance
I want to know if downloading the games is protected from my ISP. They love to kick me offline
i know im abit late to comment but can you use usb helper to download Nes snes n64 gc or wii games or just wii u
one question: what if i want to install dlc/update to the game? do i just simply have to drag it over the folder aswell?
A number of sources on the internet don't seem to directly answer this question. I have a Wii U, I have a Wii, I have Nintendo game disks - the original disks, so how do I play these Nintendo games in a hacked Wii U or Wii? I don't have ISO files, I have disks. My Wii U is successfully running Homebrew, but I have not installed Nintendont and I suspect it's a non--starter. My Wii won't read the gamecube disks. Again, I have original Nintendo gamecube disks. What do I do? How can I get these games into files so that I can focus on the Wii U homebrew direction?
Dump the games to ISO, not on the wiiu, the wiiu can't eat the tiny discs
or prirate like with the wiiu games
Since my sd card is fat32 how do I add games bigger than 4 gb??
Idk maybe try use an hard drive or usb
@@0Your8Friend0 my sd card with hatchi on is 32gb but had to be formatted to fat32 so can only do up to 4gb games. New super mario + luigi is nearly 14gb. On a different sd card that's not formatted to fat32 could I just create another install folder on there and Wup installer would still recognise it? Thanks.
@@0Your8Friend0 thanks for reply.
Hi, new super mario + luigi U is nearly 14gb. The fat32 sd card I put hbc hatchi can only install folder games up to 4gb. Should I just create 'install' folder on a different sd card that is big enough and normal / not formatted to fat32? Thanks
I got an error stating "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click quit, the application will close immediately." I clicked continue and nothing happened. Please, help me.
Do u drag and drop the DLC and Update folders into the "Install" folder on the Wii SD?
Can games for gamecube and wiiU be on the same USB? NOT sure if games from different consoles can be on same usb.
for updates and DLCs we do the same drag them to the Sd card and install them with WUP to the USB?
