For those of you asking in the comments, the main reason I prefer this program over Nusspli is firmly based on the download speeds; My Wii U is much slower than my PC when it comes to downloading games. Also, the user interface is also much easier to navigate on WiiU Downloader but the two programs do share most of the same titles. On another note, if you have Cemu, this is a much better program than USB Helper!

Thanks a ton man a week ago I barely knew you could do any of this with a Wii U, following your guides makes it so simple

Man, you are an absolute legend for making this so easy to follow!

hey bro, was looking for a good tutorial to mod my wii u but i’ve only ever modded my 3ds so i didn’t know who wouldn’t brick my wii u. i checked out your channel and modded my wii u and it worked perfectly! i checked out the rest of your channel and now i’m a subscriber. keep it up bro i love your vids

This is great it’s helped me a lot with other games and is a great alternative to NUS and USB Helper. The only issue I have is not being able to download Wii Party U from the WUP installer. Everything else works, but when I try and install that particular game it goes black

Bro now I don't have to worry about Nusspli's super long download speed! Thanks!!

thank you so much, i followed all of your wii u tutorials and i modded my wii u so quickly, now my wiiu is fire

No problems for me. I installed a USA Wii u game on my European Wii u and it worked perfectly. Your tutorials are helpful for me to watch and learn from it.

I hope eventually we will get something like this with all of the game titles on there

all games i tried to download gave me a cant find usb but the games i manually did through an injector found the usb storage fine. probably something went wrong somewhere. videos are always appreciated

Hi did u got help?

Still works, download speeds are still slow but greatly faster than NUSspli, i now have every wii u release (that i actually would want to play) on this thing.

Amazing tutorial! This helped so much, I was stuck on hoe to download games

Thank you for everything you do, I have downloaded two games to my wii u, minecraft and splatoons and the controllers do not turn on, what is it? and it only happens with the games that I have downloaded, thanks

Just a quick question: I see in that install map on my SD card maps like "hbc", "NUSspli", "ULGX launcher", etc. I can remove those without a problem?

thank god for this, the download speed difference is insane.

hey scott, i wanted to ask you a question since i already have homebrewed my wii u and wanted to know how i can dump my mlc after homebrewing my wii u already. ty!!

Heckin heck, if only I hadn’t sold my Wii U I’d be playing Kirby 64 or something

Any reason to buy a direct connect Ethernet for faster download speeds? Or is the WiiU stuck at around 12 mbps?

Question, I got it working. Downloading a few games. But sometimes when I put certain games to download it closes out. Has that happened to anyone. Like Bayo 2. I also put a few in the Queue. Now I'm downloading Bayo 2 alone and its working.

Hi when the games are installed via wup GX2 Installer (onto the usb drive) can I remove the games from the folder install on the SD card? I think you already give the answer at 3:18, but I'm not sure...

When I try to install the games into WUP installer, it says “install failed, verify WUP files are correct and complete, DLC/E-shop require Sig Patch” Edit: some games work and some don’t, art of balance and NSMBU+ LU work, but DKCR AND DKCRF don’t work Edit 2: idk why but the latest patch didn’t work for me, I tried the next one down and it worked

Hey i am having a problem with installing wiiu games, when i install it on usb it says usb not coneccted (it is) when i install nand it says not enough storage (it has enough) Edit! I managed to get them with nusplii

the installer works sometimes but for some games it doesn't work Scott do you know how to fix it?

I can get the games to work fine, but I get error 150-3030 whenever I try to launch them (other than DKCTF because I assume it's a virtual console problem). How do I fix it?

Im guessing this is just a better nusspli? Cant wait for 400cc later

What about FTPing games to a USB HDD inserted on the Wii U? Because I only have a 2GB SD card and don't really want to buy a new SD card, just to install a couple of games at a time

Do i have to pick a region I'm from or can i choose any region? I was thinking of adding arc rise fantastsia a game release in us in my uk wii u.

Cool. Does it have different variety than Nusplii, like would someone use a combination of this and Nusplii? I suppose the maximum number of icons is still 300. I max that out so easily it makes me want to get another Wii U and try this method. Haha. Great video Scott as always. Thanks

Once you install them with wup installer to a usb drive, can you delete the files from the sd card? Thanks!

when i see you posted i know its time to remove the sd from my wii u

If i install the games through Nand, does that also mean if i take out my USB the games will still be on there?

Does it matter if the dlc, update and game are installed out of order when you select all?

Verify sup files are correct & complete??? What does this mean I can’t download anything

Is there a reason I can't find Call of Duty Black Ops II in Wii U Downloader or USB Helper?

i did this the first time a week ago, but im trying to download more now that i have a hard drive and every time it corrupts all the game files at 25 percent, ruining the download. ive tried downloading watch dogs for 2 days now and it wont work. how do i fix this? is there another place where i can download watch dogs for my wii u?

After installing the games to the nand, can I clear out my install folder on my SD card?

Everytime I open the wii u downloaded it opens for half a second and then crashes

_Stay funky and happy modding 🎶_ So, how long does it take to download a game with this app ? (let's take Mario Kart 8 and Smash 4 as examples) Edit : don't remember the time it took, but yeah, it was quite fast !

FINALY. I can now download all my lost games from my bricked Wii U 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

How can play wii u and retro games that we intalled on NUSspli after we turn on the wii u

for some reason at the end it says install failed do you have any idea why it is doing that?

Thank you so much for this!

I did this process, but got WUP installer from the Homebrew App Store and for some reason it won’t let me download the games. Any reason for that?

Isn't this basically the same as Wii usb helper but only with Wii U games (And virtual consoles) from all regions ? EDIT: Just saw the pinned comment. I'm curious on why you say this one is better though. I've been using USB helper and it works great for my use case

I can't get Bayonetta 2 to work. I've downloaded plenty of games from Wii U Helper but that's been down for weeks and installing from this app gives me the "bad or missing title.tik" error

Wondering if anyone found a fix to this : I can't manage to make dlc works. exp. Wii Sport Club, Smash Bros and Minecraft Story mode. I did just like this video and i checked the region matched the game but still no dlc installed. Am I missing something?

Peak modding content here folks
