ran into an error code whilst fiddling with wii u homebrew and googling it brought me to a PSA on how to solve it with this image attached i fucking love this community

[boringkate]

I released an upgraded port of one of my decade old Wii homebrew games on steam today and that means that you have to give me $5! Those are the rules!

It's a top down 2d zombie shooter with a bunch of modes, local multiplayer, and 20 steam achievements for you to collect!

also , does anyone else with a hacked wii have trouble saving photos to the sd card ? in animal crossing whenever i try to save a photo it doesnt work, n says that theres an unknown device in the sd card slot :/

Ok so I was having a really hard time trying to figure out what went wrong with my SD card while trying to homebrew my wii

My friend figured it out so I'm posting it both for myself and anyone else that gets a No FAT device found! error on Nintendont

My formatting was incorrect, and I say this knowing NOTHING about how it works but here's how I was able to correctly format it and do it again without fail on the same type of card. It is a SanDisk ImageMate, notably the cheapest card at Walmart (hehe)

How I did it:

I used HPUSB to format to FAT32

Then from Windows format the file system to NTFS (default allocation was 4k so I left it) instead of exFAT (which was my default)

Then in guiformat pick 32768 as cluster size

and that's it! It ended up being a really easy solution but I was having SUCH a hard time trying to figure out what to do. I literally don't know what any of this means so if this doesn't help then I'm sorry! but I also cannot help. I also don't know how much the allocation numbers matter. I just know this worked for me and I'm honestly posting this for me because I WILL forget if I ever have to do it again

This formed in the back of my mind, so now everyone on this god-forsaken app gets to suffer as well.

Is anyone familiar with Wii modding that could help me figure out why my Wii won't load from my USB anymore? It worked a few days ago and stopped working when I added Mario super sluggers :( I'm really rusty lmao I haven't messed with the homebrew in years

[hotmilkmonster]

the wii works <3

the wii i got free (free!!!) from work actually works and pretty well at that ! i have spent the last day and half modding it (mainly spent that time troubleshooting only for me to plug my usb drive into it and it magically started working :') ). I haven't used many homebrew but I'm so excited~ This is my first console that I a) personally own and am not expected to share, b) can spend as much money as I want on it (perks of being an adult :3) and c) have the knowledge of homebrews and emulation so this will be so much more interesting!

this is 1000% the vibe i wish i could capture for wizkens;;

And if they practice the dark arts they learn spells like Homebrew- which can be done in a cauldron with ingredients like a suspicious 2 day old letter or parts of various brawlers- and Nintendont, a dark necromancy spell summoning forth husks of a civilization that pondered the CUBE.

There are other spells, of course... But only if one dares to read the hidden dark tomes of the Wiizard Guide Library.

A Wizard that uses a Wii Remote as their wand and can pick people up like they are a Mii in the Mii Plaza Channel.
