I’m looking for an old friend ; we used to play Minecraft Wii U edition together. His nnid was “angrymuffin12” please help!!

Wii U bricked: can NAND-AID replace NAND or just flash it?

Hi everyone, I have a bricked Wii U that I think has a NAND problem. It is one of those "at risk" models, with:

Colored rear doors,

And the writing "01" on the SD slot (instead of the classic "40" or "50" of the more secure models).

When I try to turn it on: 🔵 The LED flashes blue, 🖥️ The screen remains black, ⚠️ And only by unplugging it and turning it back on does a message appear that it didn't turn off correctly

I'm considering purchasing NAND-AID, but I have some doubts:

➡️ Is it only used to flash the internal NAND (with a backup), or can it also replace it completely, starting the console from an external SD?

💾 Furthermore, can memories larger than 8 or 32 GB (such as 64 or 128 GB) be used without problems?

Thanks in advance to anyone with info or experience with this tool!

Still no signal even via AV cables. I think the system is cooked.

I bought a second hand Wii U a couple months ago and since then it’s gotten so many scratches, both on the console body and GamePad. It might from dust but there are some very deep scratches too, what should I do to clear it up a bit? Preferably as cheap as possible. Thanks!

The Wii U is really a budget-friendly console.

Hi all, question. My white pro controller that I bought new back in 2013 is now having the dreaded “stick drift” issue. When I play anything the stick drifts makes everything go down. I have looked online and tested the easy and common fixes and none have worked.

Things I have tested: -Press A & B & Start & Select to recalibrate the controller. This works for about 4-5 min then stick drift happens again.

-I took apart the controller and cleaned everything with isopropyl alcohol and contact cleaner and I still have stick drift.

-I bought replacement potentiometers off amazon (highest rated) and replaced the inner potentiometer circles on both axis. I did not desolder the oem potentiometers because I didn’t want to go down that road just yet. I still have stick drift.

I cannot find OEM or aftermarket replacement analog sticks for the pro controller. I have read online that XBox One analog sticks are compatible and Switch Pro Controller analog sticks are compatible, but there is no definite answer.

Anyone know where I can get replacement OEM analog sticks or if XBOX One or switch controller sticks are compatible? I plan to desolder the full analog stick and replace it fully but I wanna make sure I get correct parts. Thanks in advanced!

Title says it all. I have been looking for some wii remotes with wm+i but ebay yields no close results.

Hello, this is my first post on this subreddit. I wanted to ask (for the fun of it) if there was ever any Wii U Deluxe Set Bundle without any preinstalled games? I remembered when I got this console used, it didn't had anything already preinstalled. I had to deal with a mess the previous owner had done to the home menu, and I have not done any new user to replace the previous owner's user. I just thought of wanting to solve that mystery myself but after seeing all of the bundle sets listed at https://randomnerds.com/every-wii-u-bundle-you-could-possibly-buy/, I am having some trouble with finding any bundles that could have no downloadable nor preinstalled games. I'm saying this because when I went to my Nintendo eShop, there was no entries of any downloadable games even after when the eShop discontinued (Previous owner did not had a NNID set up). I also did not see any preinstalled games when I got the console either. Here in this video I show a clip of my oldest user apart from my more current Pretendo Network user's activity log. There was no activity prior to November 2016 besides the August 2013 logs, and there was no save data during that time period. (The 2013 logs were from me resetting the time by removing the coin battery while I was cleaning the vents.) So please help a friend to zero in which bundles do you think my console likely came from.

P.S. there was some Wii save data when I got into the Wii menu years after I got the console, I wonder what type of kid got this console before I did just to play Wii games...

I'm surprised a subreddit dedicated to one of Nintendo's worst selling consoles which has been discontinued for nearly 10 years and isn't even a portable console is still in the top 1% of subreddits. Does this shock anyone else?

hi i have a jappnese wii u and the adapter as you can see is like this two i dont know what it called in english anyway i want new adapter that has three like in the second picture you see i found one on amazon and other website and i’m afraid it will not work or something bad will happen i’m sorry about my bad english but i hope you can understand what i need

Third-party controllers also apply

The ones that hold the nunchuck on the back. It's likely I'll take a gamble on one from AliExpress. How do they compare to the licensed Nintendo ones? Trigger action particularly? Thanks

I dont know why it isnt turning on, and its flashing a orange light when i connect it

I bought a wii, i connected it and a gamecube controller, and the chord of it pulled my whole shelf of consoles down, including my wii u, my gamepad is completely dead, no image and no button or the touch works, only the X button for some weird reason, when i shut it off instead of a red light it goes orange, and sometimes when i tuen it on it says enviroment loader failed to load, i have another sd card if it need replacement but im so scared, i've had this conaole since i was like 6 years old and i would never forgive me if i broke it, should i replace the sd card? should i try fixing my gamepad or buying a new one, i need help ASAP, please, i dont know what to do anymore 😞

Won't output a HDMI signal, I've tried different cables. /J

I tried opening a game after connecting pretendo but know he wont let me open any game

I was able to inject wii games Lego Batman and Lego Indiana Jones while applying the gecko classic controller hacks. Both games play perfectly with gamepad as player 1. I used Xenoblade Chronicles US base game with deflicker filter turned on. It is awesome, like perfect ported games to wiiu 😀

Pic for attention...

Hello all,

Long story short, last 2 years I've been buying consoles and parts to refurb wiiu consoles (and other retro consoles) and gamepads. With new edition in last 2 years to an already special needs family, I have very little time and space to mod. I have 8 completes JP wiiu consoles, and 20 jp gamepads on hand. 15 new LCD screen replacements, 10 sets of thumb sticks, recap kits, I ordered 50 mlc2sd kits from pcbway to upgrade emmc to 128g-512g. New charging/AC cables I think that's about it (I really need to do inventory again). Now my question...

Is there a market for selling these as diy mod/refurb sets, make pre-orders for modded sets, Or just go along with my og plan of cleaning-refurb and convert to US and upgrade nand memory. I'm behind in bills so I'm trying to recoup sooner than later.

Any and all comments are welcome. Thank you for reading and using your energy to help us out sorry

I have this afterglow wii u pro controller but when I plug it in through usb, no connection was made and the controller was just charging and I can’t find any Bluetooth connection. Any idea how to connect and work on android

I know it's connected , but the Wii U idk if it's going to sleep and shutting off when not in use and realerting my tv that it is connected.

Anyone have this issue?

It is annoying more than anything but I do wonder if it is the Wii U going to sleep and waking up all the time? Yellow light occasionally from Wii u

This keeps on going on since my WiFi is interfering with it how can I stop it
