I allways see so many bumped topics and it´s allways the same thing:
I read it´s title which is something like "Controller Support", "/region here/ on /other region here/" or "Is this Exploitz?" and got to check inside whether it is for vWii or actual WiiU and to be honest, i mostly only look here for WiiU-Stuff since vWii has been discussed to death and barely ever gets any notable updates, anymore.

So since the 3DS H&H has been split into 3 subcategories, why not at least split WiiU H&H in those 2?
I don´t see any disadvantages.

but Nintendont was heavily designed with vWii in mind. That's why GBAtemp mods left it in the Wii U section?

that's strange, I don't get notification anymore when someone call me.

I currently don't see the issue, we could just rename ALL the WiiU hacking to vWii.
There's less than 10 relevant WiiU subject.
We will probably move/separate the wiiU when there is actual WiiU mode scene/homebrew.

As for vWii and Wii, that's right most of the homebrew are shared and should be in Wii only (like nintendont ! that's not a vWii homebrew and should be in USBloader section).
vWii hacking section should be related to vWii only (cIOS for vWii, NAND dump for vWii ... hey that's all !)


Yeah i can totally see that, and the WiiU-Forum wouldn´t get many topics right now, but it doesn´t change the fact, that it is something completely seperated from vWii, And i don´t see what is wrong with a subforum that doesn´t get many posts.
And the similarity between vWii and Wii is uncanny aswell, still some homebrew wasn´t ported over, one system´s IOSs, Wads etc. still don´t work on the other and there is still quite a difference in both, so having them as three subforums still wouldn´t hurt.
It´s just reorganizing the relevant stuff, that is out right now, anyways, isn´t it?

I believe the solution is to have 2 sub forums a development forum and a support forum

separating forums now will lead people to post in wrong place again.
more work to move them.

fusing vWii and Wii is a better idea in my opinion, at least all questions and homebrew not vWii only. one less section to maintain.
but it would require a vWii for softmod and question about vWii softmod, users will still post at random place :/
I just wish I had more free time to properly manage/move all thread to correct place.

I don't even have enough time to maintain 3DS released homebrew list...
(and nobody else seems to care about helping, looks like I'm wasting my time trying to do good things)

Well i´d be allways free to hand in some help, it wouldn´t be all that much though, since i can´t spare much time.
If that´s good enough for you feel free to ask, tho. You can also PM me your Skype or similar and we can talk something out.

helping on 3DS homebrew is easy.
Go to wikitemp, 3DS homebrew list. You see some of the listed homebrew have their own page with descriptions/links/pictures/ etc., and most of the others don't have a page yet.
creating a page is easy, you just need to copy/past the "infobox" from another homebrew page, edit proper informations and that's all.
it just takes time to do, we can fix or add more information later.
I added a lot of temporary link to find the project thread easily.
Some released homebrew are missing in the list. adding them will be great.
