    Hard time getting a HDD with AC, I'm about to buy a 256gb USB key instead, is it ok?

    I have a external drive lying around but I have no idea if a Y cable addon would work on it. All I know is my external enclosure is a kingston SNA-DC/U with a old OCZ 120GB SSD inside. I tried plugging it with the USB cable provided with it but as expected, the Wii U hangs on it (probably due to...

    Hard time getting a HDD with AC, I'm about to buy a 256gb USB key instead, is it ok?

    I softmodded my cousin's WiiU. I tried to find a cheap external HDD with AC adapter to host the WiiU games but they seem to be harder to find in my area at a decent price. My cousin doesn't want to old terrabytes of games, I will barely put 160gb so I figured that a USB key would be a better...

    I read your answer too late. Earlier today I decided to format the sd card and put back the original files before I did anything funky. It works fine again. Thank you very much!

    Tiramisu : was doing well for days and then the Homebrew launcher doesn't work anymore

    yes a few times. Sorry I should've said it I also went back to vWii to check if everything was working there. The WUP games installed on USB and nand still work. Only the Homebrew channel doesn't launch like it should when I start Mii channel maker.

    Hacking Captain Toad camera zoom hack?

    Hey guys, I see there are many hacks that modify Wii U games (SSMB skins, PuyoPuyo translation, etc). I do wonder if it would be possible to add an extra level of zoom within the game Captain Toad.. Anyone who played this game can report how frustratingly close the zoom function was.. It was...

    Thank you very much! :) As for copying my disc on my HDD, I've seen old guides around. I'll look more into it. Maybe the youtuber GameInCanada did a guide about it. :)

    Hacking .tik games that are not from utikdownloadhelper?

    Hello everyone, I'm quite noob and slow to understand some concepts of Wii U hacking. There are 3 games I own the original disc but I can't put them on my Wii U's USB HDD because I can't download it from utikdownloadhelper. My games are "007 Legends", "Runbow Deluxe Edition" and "Guitar Hero...

    Hacking .gci gamecube 100% save file got from the internet, how to bring it on my Wii U?

    Thank you for your replies. I used Dolphin's memcard manager to import it. I had a lot of trouble to get the raw file to work under USB Loader GX though.. After a lot of testing, I finally figured out the setting proposed on the url is wrong (well, for what I want to do anyways). I had to set...

    Gaming Wii U and vWii microphone, does it work?

    Good news : I got the microphone to work on Sing It Disney Family Hits. I achieved this with d2x v10beta53-alt-vWii base 56 + USB Loader GX + 32gb USB key on top USB port of the Wii U + microphone plugged on the bottom USB port of the Wii U. Am I supposed to be able to plug a 2nd one? If yes...

    Gaming Wii U and vWii microphone, does it work?

    @Marko76 Thank you for the reply, I'll be careful not to do it again @tswntk Thank you for the answer! At least now I know the Wii U mic won't work in VWii. But I saw a german video where a microphone works with USB Loader Gx on a Wii U. I'll try to understand what is different on my setup...

    Hacking vWii + wiiflow + wbfs splitted in 2 files = crash

    I tested the cfwb with Dolphin and it worked well so the image is alright. I never got it to work on my VWii but it's not important anymore. I chose to use a homebrew from Psykos rather than backup my original game. His stuff has everything my original game has plus much more! It shows how...

    Hacking vWii + wiiflow + wbfs splitted in 2 files = crash

    @Kafluke : I didn't argue. I pointed out the guide I followed told me to install r52 exactly like Cyan recommended me to do. I probably used the wrongs words to say it. I'm not a native english speaker. @Cyan : wrong game (corrupted, bad dump, not correctly split/copied) : sounds highly...

    Good morning everyone! First of all, here is the context : I use wiiflow on my vWii and so far everything works flawlessly. But... I have a strange issue.. I backed my Disney Sing It Family Hits yesterday but the game is bigger than 4gb so I ended up with 2 files : Disney Sing It Family Hits...

    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.

    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh

    Tots?

    Tootles

    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.

    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.

    @Xdqwerty didn't you see the new garfield?
