Hacking Wii U USB loading - install WiiU games to USB or internal memory

[xXDungeon_CrawlerXx]

Yea, but it doesn't explain how exactly we have to edit the tik

 

[Supster131]

Not a lot of "RE" research happening here... personally I'm not interested in this method for anything other than homebrew, just annoying me its all piracy talk and no ones using this for other purposes... Yet.... I guess it's fresh.....

This can't be used for homebrew, that's why. This method only works for retail games. Games that are on the eShop and that are sold physically.

modify the .tik?

Yea, but it doesn't explain how exactly we have to edit the tik

Use a hex editor like HxD to modify bytes "01" and "0F"

Change 03 to 01, then for byte F subtract two.

Jesus christ, I can't find a New Super Mario Bros U WUD for the life of me. I found a few, but they're either on shitty hosts or no one's seeding it.

No one even uses .wud or bothers to keep them... Newer games don't have them at all. It's a shame there's no way to dump them...

By design, it can only be used for official games.

Hex edit and follow supster's instructions.

I RE'd 2 minutes after the release happened. There's really not much to see here, the method is installing legitimate NUS packages with legitimate tickets. It cannot be used for homebrew whatsoever

People doubted USB without iosu.... I doubt this is THAT limited. Has to be a way.

It is that limited. Wupinstaller was known to be able to install real retail games for a long, long time now. The only thing that stopped us was not having the tickets, and not knowing the tickets were so easy to derive from the WUD files

Hey bud. Would you mind pm me your exact method of using titles from nusgrabber. Thanks

 

[75mak]

Is it possible to move the title from USB to internal 32gb memory (black Wii u)?

 

[jbuck1975]

Does the hex edit process change if it's eur or usa?

Can somebody write a python script for that HEX stuff with tickets? Or something like that?

It won't be hard if you knew what to do.
2 blank boxes and user enters 2 items then saves file

 

[CeeDee]

Y'know... it's a shame we're so limited on what we can do with this...
We're limited to games that are on NUS, have a WUD, and are in our region.
Which may be quite a bit... but plenty of newer games aren't available, at least in USA region.
Looking everywhere, games from 2015 aren't even available - Splatoon and Mario Maker, notably.
Really a pain in the ass to deal with, and what makes it worse is there is literally NO WAY to dump WUD files from discs. I'd easily dump USA Splatoon and SMM files for everyone... if I had the option to.

 

[zeldaism]

Can someone tell me how to use newnusgrabber?

 

[adamnewy]

I just get an error when I try to install, can't figure out why.

 

[nitrostemp]

Can someone tell me how to use newnusgrabber?

just run the exe in the command prompt and place the title id after the exe

 

[mame_au]

I will wait about a month until someone come up with a method to play games in the format we have all been using with loadiine (code/content/meta), but this is a good start towards a fully hacked wii u

 

[zeldaism]

just run the exe in the command prompt and place the title id after the exe

Thank you!

 

[snoofly]

Exciting stuff but don't really see a reason to take advantage of this yet. Only reason I would love to use this is to play the games that load super slow on Loadiine. I'll wait for Zelda TP before I jump in.. All the files posted so far by the Brazilian team run fine in Loadiine.

SM3D world runs slow for me i

Can confirm this works

Has anybody tried installing more than one title?

I've installed Mario Maker, SM3D and Smash so far (EU obviously) and all working great! You have to do it one at a time though but hey, no biggie! I couldn't get Yoshi to install though - errorred right at start of install process.

 

[hashcheck1]

i have about 12 games installed via this method now.. works great. (yes i own the disks)

Hey I hate asking, but can someone pm me the modified wup installer?
