Resurrecting a Bricked Wii U with a Raspberry Pi Pico

I have been seeing this little wave of Wii U nostalgia floating around. Appropriate, since the system is already a decade old at this point.

I have three games I associate with it the most:

Hyrule Warriors, for getting me into musou games.

Fatal Frame/Project Zero 5, for just bringing that series to HD and being a lot of fun.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE for being an overall great JRPG that fermented my love for the genre.

Already reinstalled the free version a few months ago, but I finally decided to just buy the dongle so I can use the Studio version's features on #Linux when I leave Windows again at #Windows10 end of support. Weird that Fusion requires 32 GB of RAM on Linux, good thing I have it.

Why did every unlicensed third-party Wii U Pro Controller (or Wii Classic Controllers that mimicked the layout of the Pro Controller and called themselves that to try and trick uninformed consumers into buying them over the legit product) look like this?

Like did one company decide to do a 'SFC controller jammed into a modern controller' thing for nostalgia-bait and other companies just copied it cuz the design already existed?

If you are looking to mod a Nintendo 3DS or Nintendo Wii/Wii U, I used these guides:

https://3ds.hacks.guide/

https://wiiu.hacks.guide/

https://wii.guide/

Everything went smoothly for all devices. It had no effect at all on online functionality. In my experience, there's a lot more homebrew available for the 3DS and Wii than for the Wii U, but I figure that's just down to the install bases for the systems.

Mod your devices and add or restore the functionality you want.

Announcement of Discontinuation of Online Services for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U software

In early April 2024, online play and other functionality that uses online communication will end for Nintendo 3DS* and Wii U software. This also includes online co-operative play, internet rankings, and data distribution.

#Nintendo #3DS #WiiU

Funny thing is that I was researching about homebrewing my #WiiU and wether that would fuck online play… I guess I don’t need to worry about that anymore, homebrewing + pirated mario kart DLC on (unofficial) online (if we have that yet) time.

It’s sad that there are lots of people playing online Mario Kart 8 on the WiiU, and I know that lots of them won’t know that unnoficial homebrew servers are even a thing :blobcatsadreach:

Fuck #Nintendo.

Any #WiiU #homebrew non-official #MarioKart8 out there yet, like we have on #Wii? (As well as #miiverse and friend requests and stuff?)

Tweet from Nintendo: As of early April 2024, online play and other functionality that uses online communication will end service for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U software. Thank you very much for your continued support of our products.

Fairly straightforward, with some ifixit guides, forum searches, IPA, and some well-placed spudgers. Much easier than the Xbox controllers anyway.

Después del fiasco de la #WiiU de esta semana, estoy barajando comprar una #switch pero me echa para atras que seguramente la compro y a los 15 dias sale la switch 2

Since the Wii U and 3DS eshops are shutting down in a few days, a guy spent 328 days buying his way through the Wii U and 3DS libraries in the name of game preservation. He bought 866 Wii U games and 1547 3DS titles-- that's a staggering 1.2TB of data for the Wii U and 267GB for the 3DS. (For the 3DS, that's 2,136,689 blocks!)

He plans to donate all this to the VGHF.

Time to start mourning the loss of the 3DS (and Wii U) eShops. I wish I understood more about the actual infrastructure needed to support these. I assume it's a simple matter that the sales don't justify the maintenance. Also of note the 3DS and Wii U were before Nintendo had a user based account system.

#WiiU #retrogaming

I got a #WiiU just a few months before the #Switch launched. Here are my top 5 games for it.

#AffordableSpaceAdventures: Seriously, if you have a Wii U, grab this before the shop shuts down.

#SuperMarioMaker: Infinite 2D Mario levels in four different styles? Yes please!

#Bayonetta: An absurdly sexy witch kills angels in the most over the top manner imaginable

#Pikmin3: Even more Pikmin!

#Splatoon: Nintendo makes an online shooter, and knocks it out of the park.

#ShareYourGames

All right folks. Here is a compilation of many 3DS and Wii U games you should probably pick up before both eShops close at the end of the month!

This will primarily consist of exclusives but some titles that have had ports may be listed as well if they are best played on 3DS or Wii U.

Bookmark this 🧵 for later, and add your own recommendations if I missed something notable!

Super #Mario 3D World was a phenomenal game back then and still is now, with or without Bowser's Fury.

I will not hear that "of the time" argument. #SuperMario 3D World has always been phenomenal and y'all were just salty it wasn't Odyssey at that time.

I will not accept the slander that this game receives/received. It is too damn good!!

Got myself a 256GB SSD on Black Friday and thought of using it on the WiiU.
It took 3 hours to copy everything from the old HDD!

#WiiU #Gaming

The WiiU is copying the games to the new SSD.
The WiiU is showing that the games have been copied.

This is Roo. He's waving hi to you. He's the character I played 1000 hours as in Xenoblade X. What can I say? The game is really fun to explore and I play really slowly.

Screenshot from Xenoblade Chronicles X. A male avatar waves to the camera. He wears light armor and shorts and has a hibiscus in his grey hair. Behind him is a futuristic city, New Los Angeles, and a green landscape. A giant moon hangs pale in the cloudy blue sky.

Time for an #introductions post!

I'm an old #GenerationX #trans woman and even though there is definitely some queerness going on my identity I go by she/her pronouns. I transitioned well over a decade ago. In fact, it's been so long it is at times easy to forget I'm trans at all.

Some of current hobbies include #painting (you can follow my work on the #tlgart tag), playing #guitar (though I play much less than I used to), and #gaming. I play both on consoles and PC. I have a #retropie setup and a #WiiU.

I tend to stick to singleplayer games; usually (action) RPGs, sandboxes, turn-based strategy (mostly #Civ6) , and all types of puzzle games. I don't exactly have the reflexes anymore to play most platformers or shooters and the likes. Quick-Time Events are my enemy.

My body is broken and living with chronic pain hampers my physical ability throughout the day. I have to carefully plan my chores and appointments throughout the day/week as too much activity can leave me exhausted for days.

I am passionate about #linux and #RaspberryPi and almost always have some crazy new project in my head which I may or may not be actually smart enough to accomplish. I try to adopt #foss applications when able and am somewhat of a #privacy and security advocate.

Media has shaped and continues to shape much of my life. I love #cartoons , #horror movies, #StarTrek , #Buffy, popcorn action flicks, #Transformers , #Marvel , and the other usual geeky stuff. Especially fond of old #80s and #90s shows and movies.

I am #neurodivergent and may not always 'get' the proper context or tone but it mostly manifests in hyperfocus and making obscure pop culture references.

I was lucky enough to grow up with access to all kinds of technology and computers during the rise of computing - and later, the internet - which made me naturally tech-literate and able to 'speak' computer though that doesn't mean I can program at all. We just have a mutual understanding.
