Hello guys, recently I have just bought a Japanese Wii U, and while I can change the layout of several apps, I was not able to change the language of the Mii Maker app.

I was wondering if installing another Mii Maker app (specifically, the American one) onto my console would brick my console?

Thanks a lot for your help

I don't think so, but if you want to be sure you could always change the TitleID youre going to install so that it'll install besides the already installed one (a bit of work but that might be the safest bet)

For the love of god, before you mess with system titles please make a (complete) NAND backup in case things do go south.

Update, I installed, the icon was on the screen (Japanese Mii Maker and American Mii Maker both have different title IDs), but the American Mii Maker would not boot into the Mii Maker itself

I was able to remove it (through deleting the title through FTP), but overall at least my console didnt brick lol

i realize this is about a month and a half late, but this is something i attempted myself just for posterity's sake and id like to know specifically what you saw when mii maker failed to boot? was it a frozen console + a gray screen or something else entirely?

The screen with the Mii Maker logo and "Mii Maker"

    I went to auction at a mom/pops video game store few months ago that was closing, and bought 11 slims for $200, 1 was DOA but 10 work fine. so hella deal. Already rgh3'ed 8 of them. But most younger kids don't even want anymore, unless it plays stupid "fortnight", or newer shit.
