  1. What are some of the snazy homebrew that's worth downloading for both the Wii and Wii U homebrew channels? In the case of the vWii, I already have WiiMC, and the homebrew Nowhere.
  2. How do I dump and backup copies of games so that I can put them on a sperate hard drive (Primarily those installed on the system)?
  3. What are the options as far as emulation on the Wii U? Can I make VC injections like I can on the 3DS and regular Wii?
  4. Is there a way to boot out-of-region games on the Wii U? Same question with the vWii, but I'm wondering if there's a way I can do it straight from the main menu rather than having to load WiiFlow every time.
  5. On the vWii, is there a way to open the Homebrew channel with the correct aspect ration without needing to open the aspect fixer every time?

1-3-from vwii homebrew the only things i found useful are emulators, there are emulators for several consoles that the wiiu mode lacks and you can even inject them with vwii injects(this will appear on wiiu menu and enter directly into vwii program of choice) and use the wiiu gamepad if you want, and you can overclock them to wiiu speed so they run even better than on wii some hard to emulate games will run smoothly. some i want to share are

ps1 wiisxrx 2022 mod https://gbatemp.net/threads/wiisxrx_2022-another-fork-of-wiisxrx-released.614405/
n64 wii64 both regular and rice version since they are two gfx pluggins https://github.com/emukidid/Wii64/releases/tag/1.3-20212212

you can make vc injections on wiiu but the wiiu injection compatibility is gonna be small compared to existing emulator for wii and wiiu besides afew like DS VC and some n64 vc titles that only run injected, the rest of the vc titles every emulator on vwii or retroarch on wiiu will produce better results imo.

WiiU VC N64 inject compatibility list - WikiTemp, the GBAtemp wiki

4-to run anything on wiiu you need cfw, if you have cfw you already have region free wiiu games, for wii injects the region is locked tough so your best bet is either install vwii injects from your region or just use vwii and play wii game from wiiflow/usbloadergx

5- yes just installs the correct aspect ration homebrew channel and start that instead? i mean you dont need to start the original...
