Really happy to see this video be made. I’ve said it numerous times but the Wii U modding scene is great and it’s a shame it doesn’t get as much attention like the 3DS and Wii do. Hopefully one day more people check it out
Hi, I'm the Spanish translator of the FNAF port of Source Macchiato, thank you very much for talking about our project, I wanted to clear why we didn't add the possibility to use both cameras at the same time and say a couple of notes. The problem with the camera is that some jumpscares use it as a transition, and if we remove the transition, the jumpscare is going to appear from nowhere, which wouldn't look good (I'm not saying the other remake is bad, I'm just pointing out why we didn't implement it), the next version v1.3 currently in development will add the possibility of choosing between a TV-only, Gamepad-only and dualscreen mode, Wiimote support, the custom night and some bug fixes. We are also currently developing a port for Fnaf 2 in collaboration with The Latte Team, another group that has made and is working on lots of Wii U ports, such as Baldi's Basics, Kindergarten, Golfing over it with alva majo, are currently in the development of Cuphead and more, we (Source Macchiato) are also currently making a new version of Portal Wii U, with updated graphics, modding support and hopefully eventually making the entire Orange Box on Wii U, but we have also other projects (such as an Indie game) so we don't know how much time that will take. But well, thank you very much for the video and Goodbye!
@BLOX1337 Xbox 360 has an airtight hypervisor is why. No software mods can achieve privilege escalation past the userland sandbox permissions of American Wasteland.
There is one big specific problem i found when modding the Wii U, you can only have 300 icons on the home screen. My plan was to have my Wii U act as an "everything" console. Emulating everything from NES-Wii and have as many Wii U games on the hard drive as i could. Unfortunately, when it was time to install Gamecube games, it said i ran out of space and wouldnt load the installed media until i deleted one of my pre-existing icons. To my knowledge, nobody has broken this 300-game barrier, and that unfortunately put a stop to most of my Wii U modding.
One account = 300 games. You need to create more accoun beucase each account cna only hold 300 games. You can create 10 accounts or more per WiiU = 3000 games/Applications.
I modded my wii u a few months back just for pretendo since the OG splatoon servers shut down, but I honestly can't wait to get back to it whenever I'm home again. I didn't know you could use the gamepad as a classic controller, and strangely that makes me way more interested to try it out tbh
Dev mode on the xbox series consoles is actually something that might be worth looking into. the series s is a emulation powerhouse from what I've been told. Also, I've actually been in the process of re-modding my Wii U so this video is very relevant to me. I've been meaning to look into a way to mod the Wii mode easily on the Wii U as well as the Wii U system itself!
6:15 when this section was playing Ig music accidentally played on my phone so I thought you intentionally drowned out your voice when talking about piracy😭
Now this brings me back lmao, 12 year old me was nearly having a stroke cuz i was so terrified to do a haxchi injection on brain age. Downloading nintendont and smash 4 mods via the loadiine online portal is og shit, I did it all the time until i almost bricked my vwii and got too scared to ever touch my wii u again oops
This video couldn't have come out at a better time. The Wii U takes me back to a time when we still had the Nintendo GOATs such as Iwata and Reggie. I also modded my Wii U with a Haxchi for "free' (thanks Club Nintendo lol) Good to know the modding scene evolved since then and I'm compelled getting upgrades haha. You made my day, stay cool, cat!
Hey, nice video! It definitely is nice to show the upsides to modding and giving life to your old hardware. Though, at 6:53 I would have not thrown in the mention of Loadiine without going into more detail in NOT using it. Aroma and other software have been long evolving, and Loadiine now has a lot of issues, mainly it's games. Currently a friend tried to use the tools you mentioned and caused a corruption on his Aroma install. It is a nice throwback, but I would have made that point it's deprecated a little bit more clear and to NOT use it unless you truly know what you're doing. No hate of course!!!
I would be very excited to see a fat PS3 be modded. I think at some point I may just do that with my own console but I don't know if it's better to mod the slim or fat model overall. The fat one should be better since it is older and has all the hardware inside but I also kind of want to keep it as it is for how precious the hardware is and how the fat PS3 models can easily die at any point nowadays
I’d recommend modding a fat model considering that pretty much any fat model is almost guaranteed to be compatible with cfw without bricking the system. slim models are highly dependent on which specific slim model you have, so if you don’t have a slim model compatible with cfw you’re pretty much fucked, and super slim models are just not comparable at all no matter what. you can use the alternative HEN but it’s a bit more limited than CFW and you’ll have to manually turn it on every time.
I’d also recommend MrMario2011’s videos on modding a ps3, as they are the best tutorials out there on how to mod one imo. It’s still up to you though if you want to mod one lol
Keep up the content and im glad that someone made a video about the wii u modding, iv'e seen it sometimes when i was in a friend's house but that's even more awesome than i'd thought
first video of i’ve ever seen from you, and this is very reminiscent of older youtube gaming essay content while also being modern and informational, like that of scott the woz. checked out your other console modding related videos and also loved those, just subbed man, keep it up :)
I just have one question. Do i NEED the gamepad to mod the Wii U? My gamepad doesn't work and i don't want to start the process of modding just to find out i need the gamepad to press one button and just because of that one button I can't mod my WiiU
Yes but connectivity issues with the gamepad to the console can be fixed. Try replacing either the MICA2 or MICB2 chips. They vary in price but the fix is pretty easy and there are guides online. Best of luck
but big sleeper nusspli also has an option to automatically install the games you download straight to your usb hard drive or system memory, so you don’t have to do all the sd card bahizzness
Been thinking about hacking my Wii U for a while! I hacked my original childhood Wii (that hasn't been touched in eons since I got my Wii U) and had a blast with that! Seeing your video pushed me over the edge to finally sit down and mod it. Thanks for such an in depth video!!
as someone who owned a wii u way before i had internet i just loved the console. Noone ever told me its shit so i could enjoy it. even tho i have a wii, gamecube and ps1/2 nextto it, ill give it a shot- why not right
@SmartZero-f8e I mean, the main reason to use pretendo is for online play in games and miiverse, not for wii u chat, lol. I don think it's dumb to put it behind a paywall though when the original service was completely free. That's part of the reason Wii U online was still preferred by some people over NSO while it was still active.
When im thinking of wii u - which i do love - is the amount of games and ports. And by this i mean lack of games. Stardew Valley unreleased port forever in my heart 😢. I’m so mad nobody makes any ports of games for this console. I know it can run Wii, GameCube etc but damn. There are hella lot games that can be ported to Wii U nowadays
When i got the wii u the gamepad would constantly disconnect randomly, if it wasn't 2 feet from the console I was lucky if it would connect, it was like that since I got it brand new as a kid.
It's also a bit of a modding nightmare. With all the NAND corruption and error codes and ways things can go bad. And don't buy a cheap Japanese console thinking you can convert it to USA. You can BUT you will need a Japanese gamepad to begin with and then your gamepad will be the wrong region and you will need a USA gamepad to continue modding... By then you might get frustrated and stuff the whole thing in a box to never look at again, while questioning your life choices and possibly triggering an existential crisis.
I can't believe a fucking Hawk Tuah twitter post brought me here.... good stuff king.

It's probably just due to wiis and 3DS' being more common for people to own when compared to a wii u
Yup!
i swear i know that intro SFX
only 13m Wii U's were sold compared to 101m Wii's.

I did this last Christmas and went through the exact same thing as you did.
loadiine is an easy fix to get more games
Wii U is peak modding
another banger just dropped. Wii U modding is so interesting to me

As someone who just modded their Wii u i agree with this video
WHAT, BIGSLEETER VIDEO? WII U VIDEO?
3:48 I appreciate him making this very important warning unintelligible so that we can’t heed his advice
I'm so glad I owned a Wii U and modded it. I can now play most Wii and GameCube games
you made me remember that I have a Wii U, and that last time I saw it a year ago, the game pad had an inflated battery 💀
You can and should remove the battery before it starts a fire
Next Switch modding? It suprisingly exists. PSVITA has a good modding scene.
not only does it exist, its a surprisingly deep community with a lot of really cool stuff being developed
vita modding scene is pretty amazing tbh

hearing bigsleeter swear uncensored is both the worst and best thing thats ever happened to me

Just modded mine a few days ago and will redo it tonight, its awesome!
why redo
@tsuyuasui7297 I had a really small sd card when I first did it. Learned you could just copy everything over lol
i love how in the thumbnail the guy is using the gamepad backwards
Cant wait for the switch modding video in 2027

but big sleeper nusspli also has an option to automatically install the games you download straight to your usb hard drive or system memory, so you don’t have to do all the sd card bahizzness
Using the SD Card for the installation file scratch space lets you squeeze out all the capacity of your actual storages though.
@ the temp installation files get deleted automatically when the game is installed directly to USB, so using the SD actually saves less space
modding wii u to play online splatoon and mk8 on steam deck is awsome
I remember being 15-16 and realising there was an exploit for the Wii u

This thing is a beast in terms of modding, still playing with mine today.
Ofc I find this video days after I mid my Wii U
If you have the GameCube controller adapter, you can use the GameCube controllers on nintendon't
Watching this video made me realize 1-1 from 3D World uses a song from Excitebike
