How to Hack your WiiU

aka, me plagerizing from wiiu.hacks.guide

prep

make sure you have a (at least 32bg) sd card, and the wiiu can connect to the internet

also update your console (for me it's 5.5.6)

setup files

power off your system

take the sd card out of your system

go to this site and scroll down and check all the check-boxes, then press on the "Download Payloads" and "Download Base Aroma" buttons

extract the "wiiu" folders from the zip files to the sd card. if your computer says that you need to overwrite files, click yes

exploit

put the sd card back into your wiiu and turn it on

go to wiiuexploit.xyz on the wiiu and press on "Run Exploit!", hold B until you see a screen that says: "Please choose your payload"

if you see a screen that says: "EnvironmentLoader" you didnt hold down B long enough

gotta take a dump

scroll down to "nanddumper" and press A

use the d-pad to select this config:

Dump SLC: yes
Dump SLCCMPT: yes
Dump MLC: optional
Dump OTP: yes
Dump SEEPROM: yes

press A to dump these files

once it's done turn off the console and put the sd card into your computer

copy the slc.bin, slccmpt.bin, seeprom.bin, and otp.bin files to a safe place. if there are mlc.bin.part files, save those too.

once you have copyed them onto your computer, delete them from the sd card to make space

install the hacks

put the sd card back into your wiiu and turn it on

redo the steps from exploit but hold X this time

press A on the "aroma" option

press A again to load into the Home Menu

open the new "PayloadLoader Installer" app on your home screen (it's the one with the circle with an A in it)

press A to check to see if you can install PayloadLoader

press A again to install PayloadLoader (the Install / Update option)

use the d-pad to select Install and press A

press A to shut down the wiiu

OPTIONAL (but good): autobooting aroma

boot up the console and launch the Health and Safety app, press A to launch Aroma, press A to go back to the Home Menu

relaunch the PayloadLoader Installer app

press A to select Check

press A to select Boot Options

press A on Switch to PayloadLoader

press A again to shut down the console
