I've been using an external hard drive for playing games on Nintendont through the vWii. The issue is I can't multipurpose the drive for both Nintendont and storing games from Nusspli. I can only have one hard drive attached at a time, so would the best thing to do be to move the Wii/Gamecube ROMs to the SD card and re-purpose the external hard drive for playing Wii U games? Would there be a performance drop on Nintendont playing games off of the SD compared to an external hard drive? I'm just trying to figure out the best way to have both.
Best Setup for Nintendont vWii Storage and Nusspli Wii U Game Storage?

The best speed is on the HDD drive, gamecube on sd is a bit slower but perfectly fine.
I have all my games on 2 HDD, one for gamecube/Wii/WiiU loadiine (hdd fat32) games, as far as I remember, loaders still don't support Ntfs, and the other (formatted partition wiiu) for some wiiU games, that is the best set.
I have also many games on my nand, I have multiple wiiu games (wup format ) for the speed and putting wiiware-WiiUware /forwarders on them.

Ah, so it is possible to do all 3 but only through WiiU loadiine. Do you have to interchange the two hard drives? From what I remember, it can only power one hard drive with a Y-Cable.
I'm unfortunately not a big fan of injects. I have a ton of ROM Hacks and other titles, it's just much easier to boot into to Nintendont to play them.
As you said, it's only one at the time and loadiine uses SD, as far as I know, you cannot put "all" on the HD (at the moment for sure), if would be nice if possible. I think like many, I use loadiine for launching Ds title too.

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
