[Lost case] Saving a bricked Wii U (without anything)

[Rick Astley]

I tried to boot into recover mode a few times.

This was the best I could get. If I can get it to work however, what should I do then ?
Thanks

Hello! Did your wii u work as usual before the system update? I ordered a Wii U with the same problem and with system version 5.5.1 and I hope I can hack it without updating. I'll write here about my results later.

You can't.

Will it be possible to update to the latest version?error 162-4065 will not appear?

Dump the system crash logs, so we can see the details. 5.5.1 should be exploitable. If you neither get the Browser exploit nor DNSpresso to work UDPIH should still work

I don't have a Wii U yet, it should arrive in a couple of days. If I can successfully resolve error 160-2215 for this post, I will proceed further and write about it here
