Wii U Game Install Tutorial - 4 Methods - Disc, NUSspli, USB Helper, Injects

[@PenceFamilyGaming]

Unfortunately Pence PC is no more. It all became too much and I just could not keep up. The in depth video content, completing orders, working full time, and not spending time with my kids. There was not a waking second I wasn't working and my family never saw me. That is why I made the decision back in July to completely redo my setup to transition to a gaming channel with my family. This channel will be re-branded this January/Feb 2024 with loads of new content with my kids. We hope you stay to enjoy the new content! Thank you to past customers, viewers, and friends!

dude you have no idea how hard it was finding a person who knew how to put games on with a pc and its amazing thank you for the tutorial, works perfectly!

[@RustyPlug]

Wow. I just modded my free wiiu yesterday and was gonna look for the guide to getting started with games on it. So lucky this just came out. Thank you sooo much

[@boredyoutubeuser]

Free?! Wow, you are lucky bro. 😮

[@umbreonmax_hd3209]

Seriously, thank you for this tutorial. I was so pissed off at Nussplis slow download speeds, but the USB Helper is so much better

[@cadez8386]

Wii U downloader is quicker imo. And it’s a lot cleaner and free of bloat. The UI isn’t as fleshed out as usb helper so all you can see is game titles but it definitely helps pc performance if you’re using a crappy 4gb ram pc (old laptop in case of accidental virus download) like me. Just be careful and remember to switch tabs when looking for a game to ensure you get the dlc and updates for said game.

[@umbreonmax_hd3209]

[@kojithecow8889]

absolute gigachad of a dad, made wii u homebrewing a breeeze, love it love it, thanks a lot

[@YourBoyYoshii]

I recommend anyone using these methods to use Wii u downloader instead it works very well from my experience and it’s speeds are fast and the interface is clean

[@igzibi1]

Excellent tutorial. Just for option 3 (usb helper), i found wii u downloader easier and cleaner looking.

[@chickenbonelives]

I've been doing techonmoon style since your last tutorial. I don't think I'll ever play the 300 slots worth of games. Thanks so much for all of your hard work. Nuspli is such a boon I'm in love with it.

[@GFDthatsMe]

Just want to say that Pence is a awesome human! He explains how to do all his mods and if you dont want to do them, you can buy from him or he will do them for you. He doesn’t just showcase what he can do and say “if you want one like mine, only way to get one is through me”…….Keep up the great videos Pence!!!

[@goblue1612]

Just got my sd card from your site! I just want to say thank you!! And every thing went smoothly!

I appreciate you explaining so thoroughly and making it easy to understand. What I'm having trouble with is getting more than 290 games on my WiU on multiple pages to work.

[@PenceFamilyGaming]

Yes there is a 300 tile limit on the Wii U. There is a work around that I have not explored yet but hope to for a video. It isn't easy though.

[@maxalonso5404]

thanks for this! I was struggling with the installing part, your tutorial is very detailed and organized, with this anyone can do it.

[@muppetonmeds]

I have a hacked WII-U and noticed all my shop games don't work is this because the shop is closed or hard drive problems? Is anyone else having this issue? Thanks

[@outandaboutsince1986]

@ muppetonmeds If you download nusspli and store it to the hard drive not the nand all games should download and play . 😊 hope this helps.

[@Harcos_HD]

Best Wii U mod videos thank you for all ur time

[@SmellyFeetFinder]

My WiiU always goes into black screen and I have to force shutdown when trying to install something with WUP installer.

[@naruhearts1]

So does the injector essentially make it so you can use 1 drive for wiiu/Wii/ GC games? Im assuming you're using your WiiU formatted drive not the specific Wii/GC one to hold the games?

[@dulefontana]

You really don't know how much your video saved me. Thank you so much.

[@marcodon9117]

Great video. In regards to the 2tb limit -- is it 2tb per drive? You said you need a drive for wii u side and a drive for vwii side. My understanding is that you swap out the wii u external drive for the vwii external drive as needed. Since these are not plugged in at the same time, does the 2 tb limit count per drive? Or total?

[@reanimation9512]

I needed a good video explaining NUSpli thank you so much. I just have a question, do you need to keep the download data if you install on a USB? Because that's just space being taken up on the SD card.

[@snarpking]

Do you know the answer to this at this point? I am still wondering myself.

[@jurassicgamer__1343]

Whenever I try to play the GameCube games through the injection method, Nintendont tells me it failed to create a memory card

[@hamidal-tameemi838]

Well done, smooth and more than wonderful explanation, thank you very much for your effort

[@masonwillis2072]

Dude this is great I could have used this a while ago! I was wondering if you could make a tutorial on how to install Wii channels on the vwii. I remember hearing that you can't do it like on a normal Wii or else you'll brick your Wii u. Ive been wanting to do it for all my Wii, Gamecube, and virtual console games but I don't know how I gotta change the game.

[@PenceFamilyGaming]

You can follow my USB Loader GX guide here. I bookmarked the specific part but I suggest watching the whole guide kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5q5fn57areceaM

[@MarkoPolo8888]

Do you EVER think you'll do work on XBOX 360? Love your work.

[@PenceFamilyGaming]

Yes, I would love to do it but need to complete the consoles I have mastered for my updated guides. Wii should be quick, then back to OG Xbox and 3DS. 360 could be after those. I actually started to over 3 yrs ago but got super busy and had to abandon the progress I made. I had hours of recordings.

Thanks Pence! Hi everyone, Should I install Tiramisu or the Other Homebrew? Which is better?

[@PenceFamilyGaming]

You have to install Tiramisu no matter what, then choose if you want to boot into Tiramisu or Aroma. You can choose which to boot into with a simple Wii U Restart. Start with this guide to add custom firmware (Tiramisu/Aroma) then follow either guide for adding games. USB Loader GX or Wii U Side Game Installs. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2SZn3WJiJdsZqc

Thanks for this, I play a lot of GameCube games on the Wii U already I have 3 questions, can I use a 64gb SD card instead of the 32gb? I read that it has to be 32gb fat sd card. How can I play gamecube games with the GameCube controller? I tried with an adapter on nintendont And a GameCube controller and it didn’t work at all. How do I play Mario party 7 on the Wii U without the mic? I don’t have any issues with any of the games I play they run great except for super smash bros meele, it’ll freeze randomly idk

using usb helper with tiramisu wud installer gx is only for aroma enviroment...

[@Cain35]

I've used your guide and everything goes smoothly until I try to install the game, It will install up to around 60% but then the wiiu will kind of crash and the system will still be on but nothing is going on on the screen. I have tried the patch and normal versions of teconmoon's injector to no avail and I can't find anyone else who seems to be having this problem if you have any ideas as to why this is happening they would be greatly appreciated.

Hope you are able to still answer this message please. What usb to ethernet adapter did you use to get those download speeds in Nusspli, around 30Mb/s? The Highest speed I get is 10Mb/s is that adapter you a re using USB 2.0 or 3.0?

It was in a constant update loop… I ended up wiping it and I’m pretty sure I totally effed this up. Now I get a black screen and -11 in the top right corner every time I try to launch home brew on mii maker. Now that I saw your videos I realize it was all set up for me I just didn’t know how to use the apps, but I couldn’t tell if they were online or not.. your website says your closing. Anyway you can help?
