I have a modded Wii U that I set up a few years back so it's all a little fuzzy on steps and specifics.
I have an SD card and a USB hard drive.
I am trying to add a Wii U game (Resident Evil) and its 13gbs so it won't fit on a FAT32 SD card.
I have it in WUX format, WUD format , and in a folder with .app and .h3 files

But I am at a loss as to how to install it on my Wii U.

Any help would be appreciated!

Good morning,

what guide did you follow to modify your wii U?

place your game (.app and .h3 folder, title tik, title tmd......) in the "install" folder on your SD, then install it with "wup installer gx2"

There are certain requirements you need to have to Install Wii u games . Hacked Wiiu Firmware, SD Card , PC, Strong Internet Connection, WUP installer.
  • You can choose to install a USB Helper on your PC.
  • Once done , Download the game that you want .
  • Click on Add to download.
  • Once done , Insert the WII U SD Card on your PC , copy the game and Insert SD Card to your Wii U to install it .

NUSspli is able to download to your external USB drive instead of the SD card. You can also create a install folder on USB and upload your game (the folder with .app and .h3 files) to there with FTPiiU, then use NUSspli to install from that but that might even be a bit slower than just redownloading with NUSspli.

//EDIT: Also the .app files are never > 4 GB. So while the game folder as a whole might be 13 GB there should be no single file too big for FAT32. So your .app / .h3 dump should fit on FAT32 just fine.
