Mine are Belkin, but I'm almost positive you can't buy them anymore. They're very close to these ones here.

Wii LAN adapters are USB 1.1, not ideal for an "Ultimate Wii U"
I think for an ultimate mod an internal HDD/SSD would be key.
Bigger gamepad battery (there is plenty of space for a bigger lipo pouch)
Hardware power switch for the gamepad. The gamepad battery drains way too fast when turned off because it's never really off, this would solve that. Letting the gamepad battery drain constantly is also bad for the battery.
USB-C charging.
RGB
Case mods? Acrylic window or something.
Internal gamecube ports (someone has done it, although it's not the prettiest job: )
Just some ideas.
There is a way around the 300 title limit using multiple profiles each with a different set of 300 titles visible: https://gbatemp.net/threads/what-is...itle-limit-in-2020.569027/page-2#post-9118849
i'm about to mod mine to , jus received my 256SD Samsung micro sd card with adapter so i can store my vWii wbf games on it. Also gonna use a 128gb sandisk USB thumbdrive for lager games. That should do it. Don't want another powered hdd connected to my console.
Flash drives don't work well with Wii or Wii U. They usually don't work at all with USB loaders/Wii games (you might get lucky and find one that works but it's more likely that it won't) and there are reports of them dying prematurely when used in Wii U mode.
i'm finaly done, succesfullly modded my wii! love it how all my wii games are stored on my sd and the wiiu games do work from my usb thumbstick
(i'im using a microsd usb adapter with a scandisk 128Gb Microsdcard)

All I find says it's USB 2.0. Also the Wii and Wii U LAN Adapter have the exact same chipset inside (ASIX AX88772), so this would mean a Wii U LAN Adapter is USB 1.1, too, but that can't be as I'm reaching higher speeds than USB 1.1 can deliver. Lastly the datasheet of the ASIX AX88772 says this:
Code:
• USB specification 1.0 and 1.1 and 2.0 compliant
• Supports USB Full and High Speed modes with Bus power capability
• High performance packet transfer rate over USB bus using proprietary burst transfer mechanism (submitted for US patent application)//EDIT: Also Wii U LAN Adapters don't exist. It's just the Wii LAN Adapter in a new box:

What cheap sticks are you all buying ?
I’ve been using a Kingston usb 3 drive for YEARS now
Heck even my “Duracell” one back from my OG Wii still works and that shit had constant game use
From this and a ton of other data collected last years I'm slowly concluding that old (7 years plus) flash media definitely gets killed but modern one has a chance, depending on the FTL firmware.
Still trying to confirm this through, so take it with a grain of salt.
Maybe I just got lucky but my Duracell one I got the same week galaxy 2 released (parents wouldn’t buy me games but a flash drive was fine for “school”)
So that’s def more than 7 years
I just think flash memory had improved a lot assuming you don’t get some bottom of the barrel trash
Some folks recommended high endurance both micro and normal sd card. I've only used them for my GoPro and other camera stuff but not the console, so YMMV. Plus consider how Wii U OS works, I would rather not deal with wasted time and data again. Like 50-60 hrs of BOTW just gone, it was painful.
I think a ultimate Wii U would have at least the maximum internal storage supported by stock IOSU...

with defuse and the right patch it should even go higher

Ultimate would be 2TB, but I can't find a 2TB micro SD. Also the system is snappier without scfm, at least from my feeling

Last edited by SDIO,
I just saw the Wii U internal storage upgrade thread and it really looks promising. Having bigger internal HDD without rendering one of your USB ports unusable is a really nice, highly desirable feature to be had. It eliminates the need for all those external HDDs you need to hook up in order to have your collection available at any time. Looking forward to see how it'll turn out. ^^
SD card are this reliable, on os afaik known for many disk access ?I think a ultimate Wii U would have at least the maximum internal storage supported by stock IOSU...

San Disc Max Endurance cards are more reliable than the original eMMC. For others you'll have to look at the datasheet, search the website, ... Search for something like TBW (TerraBytes Writeable before failure).

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+1 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
