WiiU got brick’ed upon an update attempt. It was never “modded” (original setup) so my question is if this method could help to unbrick it?

Very helpful video! I have a question. I kinda softbricked my Wii U today; If I turn it on and press X, it boots the EL subsequently Tiramisu/Aroma, and everything is fine until I select a user, that's when my Wii U soft locks in a loop of the floating things background and the starting music, but unable to open the Wii U Menu. Do you think this could unbrick my console?

HELP! When i try to choose a region it says "Error! Make sure title boot is installed correctly." any tips?

It worked! Tysm

This is the reason I done the recovery because my Haxchi would keep looping and I had to install every time on startup to play the games. My Wii U kept shutting off like you, this is what I did. 1. I transferred both recovery menu files in my Sd-Card 'recovery_menu' 'recovery_menu_dc_init', no idea if this makes a difference but they were both on my card when it worked. 2. I cleaned out all the front USB ports and Sd-Card slot with compressed air. 3. Make sure you have nothing else plugged in to the front and rear USB ports. 4. I used a micro USB from my old samsung phone, as the cheap micro USB I had wasn't providing enough power, you can test this on your PC your PICO will struggle to stay connected or error about unrecognised USB device. 5. I plugged it in exactly as the Wii U logo appeared, every time I had a delayed reaction for a second or two my Wii U would turn off instantly. Hope this helps.

Can i repair my wii u update brick with this menu recovery?

For those of us with the no video output / no gamepad sync, is there a specific # of seconds that anyone can share for when the PICO should be connected to USB. Been trying on my old Deluxe Set but never get a purple LED...Thanks.
