Wii U modchip based on de_Fuse now dumps and restores SLC/MLC, with redNAND and Aroma support
The project has since evolved in its development, and after several revisions and new updates to it, the modchip can now dump and restore SLC and MLC from the Wii U's eMMC thanks to the use of the Pico board, so developers and early adopters can verify whether or not their board is properly connected to the Wii U console to dump/restore the corresponding parts. Some of the features that de_Fuse currently offers are as follows:
- Flashing a Raspberry Pi Pico with de_Fuse to check for proper connection
- "minute" menu to navigate the options once connected
- NAND backup, SLC/MLC
- OTP and SEEPROM backup
- Setup redNAND with a 64GB SD card for 32GB Wii U models, and 16GB SD cards for the 8GB Wii U models.
- NAND restoration, SLC/MLC (might still have some bugs)
- OTP and SEEPROM restoration
- Overclock and underclock of the Radeon GPU
- Rewrite of de_Fuse in C, which allows for an eventual Aroma support.
There also seems to be some people working on a solderless method to allow using de_Fuse, and there's also the possibility of an upcoming system title restore feature which could help with other kinds of bricks as well, so the future of de_Fuse is looking bright.
