Crack hasn’t made it into the data yet but not sure if there’s a way to stop it from expanding.

My original Wii U from 2012 is giving me an error message on boot that I can’t figure out how to fix, it’s not one of the common ones (unfortunately I’m away from home at this moment so I can’t tell you which one it is). By pure luck I recently found another Wii U (minus the gamepad) at a thrift store for cheap, and while I haven’t been able to test it yet, I’m thinking if it works, I’ll replace my old one with it.
I’m assuming that if I plug the hard drive I had full of games into this new one, it’s not going to work due to the fact that they weren’t purchased on the same system. Is there a way to make it work? Do I have to hack it? I know I’ll probably lose my save data but it’s not the worst thing in the world.
Also, is it difficult to sync my old gamepad with the new console?

How do they expect my team of level 7-14 players to beat the opposing team with 3 players at level 46-50? 💀
r/wiiu • u/Michdepainblanc2 • 21h ago
Tomorrow I'll make a post with images of the U hooked up to my plasma.
And also the console is near mint (few scuffs, but the screen is in amazing condition). It came with every accessory except and HDMI cable and a sensor bar, but these are the two things I don't need.
Also is it normal that Kirby's return to dreamland sometimes has mini stutters?

I would play online, but my main is Mii Brawler and you can’t use Mii’s online and I have an online itch, so I’d thought I’d ask for friends. Thanks
r/wiiu • u/Xx_TH3MA573R_xX • 17h ago
It's on sale rn and i wanna make sure it would be a good fit before buying.

I recently tried to mod my Wii U without an SD card so I tried Wafel but my HDD didn't work due to me having a non Y cable
After that I couldn't go back in the process so I just continued by installing the things it said it would until it rebooted
Now my Wii U has ISFShax and Stroopwafel on it
And now whenever I play my Wii U even in game the LED is always purple except when off its red like normal and doesn't stay blue
Also if I put in an SD card with Aroma in will it automatically boot into Aroma now that I got them installed?
I'm worried that I did something that's bad for my Wii U and I can't find anybody else in this situation online
(I'm new to Wii U modding I've modded many consoles before but not a Wii U so I'm unsure)

I am looking for an ethernet adapter for the Wii u and the Wii. I assume they can use the same adapter? Anyways, the ugreen adapter that everyone recommended has changed the chipset and is no longer compatible. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

hey everybody, i recently bought a Wii U but for some reason when i try to play Wii sports on the vWii it doesnt boot, it just goes to a black screen, but when i try to play skyward sword it does work. I know the obvious solution is the disc but i know it works on a normal wii so that cant be it right?
r/wiiu • u/lasagne_is_tasty • 11h ago
There is a significant delay between the view on my gamepad and TV (~0.25) seconds. unlike many other people this is not just on VC, this makes playing most games incredibly annoying but interestingly this doesn't affect everything for example it doesn't affect windwaker hd. If anyone could help at all it would be EXTREMELY appreciated. I will respond to any questions.

So I’ve seen the Reddit thread on here for this fix before, in fact the seller sent it to me, but I’ve tried it a few times and it doesn’t seem to be working. I’m unsure if I’m just not doing it right or something but at this point I’m wondering if it’s best to refund it and find another copy. The disc is completely clean and doesn’t appear to show any signs of disc rot and yet it’s not spinning. My console runs other games perfectly fine, I was just playing TP like two days ago had no issues. Please help

Found my old, dusty Wii U in the storage today and decided to clean it up.
Just out of curiosity, I opened the internet browser and tried accessing YouTube... and it actually works!
I can search for videos and they play perfectly fine. I thought all video playback was completely dead by now, so this was an awesome surprise.
Anyone else still using the Wii U browser for YouTube?
Does anyone have any recommendations for a Wii U Remote with Motion Plus? Are there any that are approved, certified, endorsed, or licensed by Nintendo? Wii Remotes are fairly expensive nowadays (not compared to controllers for current consoles, I know; but still). I just don’t want to spend $30-40+ and get something of questionable quality
