If Nintendo ain't preserving games, we'll do it for them.
and they killed citra and yuzu
at least se have forks
the most supported are suyu and lemonade
Amen.👍
Yessir!
not for them, for us
@@H3cJPyup they might go after others like cemu soon since they pressured steam to block dolphin from being released on steam (i know it was available to download years before) but still
Wild how a hacked Wii U can play Gamecube games natively, without emulation, and yet Nintendo never added that feature even though the hardware could do it.
It's so they could sell you wind waker and twilight princess all over again instead of playing the gamecube version. And since the Wii U is completely shut down guess what? Now they'll port it to switch $60 for each.
@@Enzed_ In that case, FUCK Nintendo
Just like how the 3ds has hardware level GBA support but can't play GBA games unless Nintendo decided it was worth adding to the Nintendo eshop
@@LucaG1 they didn't let 3ds play GBA cuz they wanted people to buy a Wii u to play GBA virtual console games. Nintendo really are scummy. Only the people who were unfortunate to buy a 3ds before the price drop got to play 10 GBA games.
@@LucaG1 GBA games were actually officially added by Nintendo to the 3ds. I think it was 9 titles. They only gave it to people who bought the 3ds before the initial price cut though for some reason, alsong with various NES and SNES games
We are all sick of Nintendo's shit at this point.
Look i love nintendo But they can be annoying sometimes
I mean do you wanna keep their servers up for them costing tens of thousands of dollars ? They move their players move simple as that.
@@morbidzombii not good for game preservation though
@@BassFoxNationhappens when people stop buying disk and buy digital instead, digital games are server locked most of the time. but hey digital is the future soon people won’t “own” their games.
Imo no company would just take the loss of indefinite multiplayer servers up for no financial benefit, nor does modding in peer-to-peer support functionality for a practically dead console's games; even the goodwill won't generate any meaningful income vs the cost associated with doing it.
The one thing that would rub anyone the wrong way justifiably so, would be if they ever deliberately halted the independent/open-source development of such multiplayer systems when said game franchises wouldn't be remade/remastered so there wouldn't be a potential financial loss to begin with.
I recently hacked my Wii U, and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. It's literally three consoles in one, Gamecube Wii and Wii U
Also emulators lol
Don't forget N64, ps1, SNES, GBA, and NES
that is great
Wii is already in the wii u without hacking it
I haven't soft modded a console since PSP but because of this, looks like I'll be buying a Wii U and skip plans buying the Wii
Remember, Muta saying "I don't support piracy" is code for "I'm saying this so UA-cam won't kill me."
Piracy is a crime you can face jail
Time if you download it and the police catches you
Not really. I'm sure he doesn't just outright support piracy in general. It sounds more like a message of: piracy is a tool that can be used in the context of protecting our rights as consumers
Or he don't want Nintendo ninjas to raid his house

What's sad is that the moment Nintendo announces a new Mario/Zelda game,All is forgiven and people will act like none of this ever happened and go back praising them again.
No, the servers have to shut down eventually this is not greedy corportation shit, this was coming
Yep pretty much and that's really why nothing changes imagine if allllll these creators big or small banded together and brought there viewers together for real change, I'd be estatic
Except me. I won't forgive them.
@@vvx600kinda but at the same time xbox360 and PS3 are still supported and they're much older than the Wii and Wii U

@@inkrot good luck bro,I wish you will find one.
Solar eclipse - OMG wow!
Discontinuation - omg… wow…
I am consistantly amazed with all of the dedicated nerds who love an abandoned game or service so much they're willing to reverse-engineer the online components of it and present it for free or for donations. I salute you all.
@@Maximilian1990 You act as if Nintendo isn't scamming their users. Being a theif isn't admirable, but it is still a lot more respected than pretending not to be one while doing worse things
I couldn’t agree with you more!! it’s honestly so impressive. I’ve been having a lot of fun playing CTGP on the Wii! Still amazed by it.
@@Maximilian1990 How is emulating an online game server for games that I bought in 2014 being a thief? Oh no, I'm stealing money from Nintendo for...playing Pokemon X and using the GTS Features when Nintendo shut it down.
You know what they say, if you want shit done you gotta do it yourself
@@Maximilian1990 genuinely what is even being stolen in this situation?
You turned a sad day for Wii U owners into a good one.
Wii U guide maintainer here, I have 2 corrections I would like to note down:
1. You don't need to hack the Wii U just to get access to the vWii. It is built-in to every Wii U system and can be accessed from the Wii U Menu.
2. Gamecube games are not emulated. Parts of the GC are (ie controllers/memory cart), but the game in itself is not
Also nice job blurring out UFDiine and , but not blurring the rest :P
You know its a good video when Muta is happy in the thumbnail. Bring me joy to see a video from him especially when it’s hacking something.
i thought he was holding the bible or in his case, the Quran

I forgot Nintendo was gonna end the Wii U today lol. I just hacked a week ago because I got bored and remembered I had a one. 💀
real ogs remember the youtube tutorials with the DNS server change for "free games"
what would this actually do? I've never heard of it at all but I assume its either a trollpost or malicious
@@weene875 it was just a fad
lmao I remember that
real ogs remember the dns server change tutorials for free kanto starters in black and white
@@tim.m2 Still possible, to get all classic mystery gift Pokémon and access a fan made DNS version of the GTS.
They really killed it whenever you couldn’t buy anything from the eshop and I’m honestly kinda surprised the 3ds servers had lasted for so long
Thanks for putting the effort into this and breaking down each step so clearly. You've really unlocked a ton of potential in the Wii U and helped keep these legacy systems alive.
ChatGPT is that you? Because Wii missed U
Note, the GameCube emulation is not emulation, it’s basically bare metal
The Wii U is a modified wii which is a slightly modified GameCube, wii mode is just it turning off the additional Wii U components of the motherboard. Wii meanwhile could natively run GameCube, as seen in the og Wii having GameCube ports and being able to natively run GameCube discs, so wii mode can go natively run GameCube games if you can force the console into GameCube mode such as with nintendont
Yup, and Nintendont actually runs in Wii mode. That means you can run Gamecube games at a bit of a higher framerate. My favorite way to play Underground or Most Wanted. Plus you can also do weird stuff like use the Wii controllers.
For people that doesn't care so much: The Wii U and DS are getting really cheap now on the second market. I live in Japan, the Wii U is the cheapest machine right now (GameCube and others are double the price).
And thanks to this news (the shutdown), second hand markets will have more machines and cheaper. Once a machine is jailbreak is amazing the amount of things you can do. I just got a Wii U as a present for a kid. I'm talking less than $100.- and you can have the whole Wii U, Wii, GameCube collection with accessories (guns, tennis rackets, car wheels).
Right now this is a great opportunity!
Japan variations of consoles have always been cheap 2nd market
I got a Wii U secondhand, the only thing i'm missing is the gamepad, which last i checked, they're still going over $100 (the ones that are still in great condition, i mean).
Where I am, the nintendo DS is quite expensive
Imagine someone bulk purchasing, hacking and selling for 2x price.
last time I checked, the N3DSXL is expensive. Hopefully that was just the scare and people will bring the price down. I really want one so I can hack it to get New Nintendo 3DS games and play SNES on it....
Wii U and the 3DS did not die. They were MURDERED!
and then they were muta'd
Dude they both were like 100 years old, learn to let go
@@Maximilian1990brainlet opinion
@@wagooga My dude, the 3DS was long past dead in 2018. Nintendo was still keen on supporting the system, but people went "STOP MAKING GAMES FOR THE 3DS!" and now that the 3DS is all of a sudden being yoinked, people are going "HOW DARE YOU MURDERED THE NINTENDO 3DS!"
Edit: I'm not defending Nintendo. I currently own a modded Wii, Wii U, 3DS, and OG Launch Switch. But don't act like Nintendo killed a console when the people who owned a 3DS threw it to the wayside for a new shiny toy.
@@pileofboxes the only reason nintendo was supporting the 3ds until then was because they weren't sure if the switch would be successful. I don't think anyone had a problem with them releasing games late into its lifespan. The reason everyone is upset is because games like pokemon, monster hunter, animal crossing, Mario kart still have dedicated communities and since the connection is peer to peer it costs nothing for a company like Nintendo to run. In any case one of the best eras of gaming is gone and it's sad to see.
Hearing Muta call the Wii U good makes me so happy. Everybody shit on the poor console, despite it having so much personality and having a great line up of exclusive and even non exclusive games.
Agreed! I waited on getting one till the prices dropped. He’s definitely convinced me to pick one up! What’s one of your favourite games on the system?
Metroid Prime Trilogy my beloved
Being a WiiU owner was a strange experience for sure, it's like you were snuck on an island and every once in a rare while you'd see another person on a neighboring island, it had it's fair share of problems but it was an experience that will never be replicated again, so for that I'll always have an appreciation for it
Heard 3DS and remembered I have mine in my suitcase on vacation with me,best timing ever
Keep track of it, i went on vacation and got out to take a piss on my way home and someone stole my whole bag out of my car which had my childhood 3ds in it.
@@KelBShobradamn :/ sorry that happened!
waiting for the surprise "fuck modders" update like they did with 3ds
did the 3ds receive a recent update that fucks with mods? i gotta double check my wife's and mine wont update then
@@improvisedchaos8904 no that was a while ago but it took a while to fix
emphasis on TOOK
it's all fixed now
Forgot about that i hacked my 3DS before that update
Well there is no point in banning anyone so why would anyone update?
Huh? I never knew people hated modders?
so the world was ending today
yea
yes pretty much, all that's missing are the nukes
Didn’t notice. The weather was pretty nice.
It's been nice knowing you gentlemen
Not the world, our childhoods
Nintendo's lawyers are cracking their knuckles as we speak. gl muta !
thx for the reminder to backup all my 3ds garbo
Bought a wii u 32 gig for 40 dollars shipped back in 2021 and have not regretted this decision to this day. The thing is one of the best emulation systems ever despite it's low specs.
The bright sun shining on the shelf made me think he was burning it
you are the #1 youtuber who care about games preservation.
thank you so much...i will support you with all my power

PS3 and 360 outlived Wii, dsi, 3DS, and WiiU shops. Wild how Nintendo fans don’t demand better when it comes to their online experience
Eh, 360 not by much.
It's going down in July, IIRC. Sometime this year, regardless.
@@video-luver769the xbox released in 2005, the wii in 2006. The wii's online services went down in 2019. That difference is pretty wild.
Oh we do all the time but Nintendo doesn't listen and Gamefreak is even worse in that regard.
Nintendo has no incentive to provide better services because bootlickers will keep giving them money, regardless of whether their products/services/business practices are garbage.
@@video-luver769 only the shop is closing tho. Online will still work and you can still buy backwards compatible games on any Xbox after that.
Modders will always do what Nintenwon’t

Rip to one of my favorite gaming consoles
The Eclipse was just Nintendo Bribing Aliens so that we would be too distracted preserving Nintendo Games
no
wonder !
I was thinking it was ether the eclipse or Boeing
theres a superstition where eclipses bring bad luck
It all makes sense now. 😂
Either this is a conspiracy theory or I'm sleepy.
Holy shit Muta I literally just finished Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition, started Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and felt like I had missed something. Then I remembered there was another game in between and was going to hook up my Wii U to play Xenoblade Chronicles X and got sad realizing it's probably going to have lost content because the servers are gone, and then I see this exact video and what's the first game you hold up? Now I have to unpause and watch the rest of the video, even knowing you're most likely about to have to crush my soul with reality.
Yeah, that game (X) was my childhood. I got so excited when he held it up!
I just came from Ryu's live stream. I'm 100% on board with this 💯
I will never feel bad for pirating a Nintendo game. I came to that decision last year and I've had much better experiences because of it.
Absolutely killed it with the thumbnail tbh. It's a work of art.
The 3DS is my favorite Nintendo device to this day. No other gaming device quite encouraged interacting with other players like it, and it had so many banger games and apps. I honestly view the Switch as a step back as it doesn't have half the customization features or the street pass stuff
Absolutely agree. I'm not putting this system down for a long time, the play dynamics have just been diminished (or destroyed in some instances). What a joke, Nintendo
Aint gonna lie, I have a soft spot for the WiiU. It wasnt as magical as the og WII sure, but the secondary screen was charming as fuck. I especially liked the second screens use for Tokyo Mirage Session,where it was mainly stats and touch controls and stuff. It just looked neat to have all the info right there in front of you at once while playing the game. Not the best game ever tho ngl lmao, the censorship was hella weird and not needed at all
These are the videos I love from Muta. Always willing to click into these.
I already know how to do everything in the video but hearing someone else passionate about this stuff is just plain fun and relaxing.
Against Nintendo, piracy is justified.
piracy is the way, it's for the people,
"legal" ownership of patents and copyright is abolished
At this point, it's not piracy; it's preservation
It’s not piracy it’s supporting that whose own creator chose to abandon it
@@KGBSpyGeorgeCostanza And copyright + patents respect the individual. Without that, there would be nothing for "the people" as we know it today.
@@CycloidalHeadache the creator? What if he had no choice to give up the game to them, like in some contract
The cable monster in the background is growing...
I think the most impressive thing about this video is that it's actually still up on UA-cam and hasn't been taken down. Damn, the power of Muta lol.
Otherwise great tutorial man! Absolutely brought new life to my WiiU for me. Thanks!
Honestly got me wanting to go back and watch the sick smash reveals smash 4 had
What absolute Goblins. Nintendo removing online play on the 3DS is a tragedy.
I swear if anyone defends Nintendo’s actions for this deserves to be called a clown.
They're the entire entertainment industry dawg.
@@NetBattlerhonk honk
What games do people play online? I can’t think of a single one besides smash and mario kart but those are on the switch.
Yeah Nintendo should keep 20 year old games' servers alive even though literally no one plays said games anymore
@@Maximilian1990👅🥾
Mutahar you are a brave fellow for making this.
In before Nintendo's lawyers arrive...
Even though the cutoff was in the afternoon/evening, it made my eyes well up to see people change their usernames to "don't close 3DS", and "leave it on+plugged" so we could stay up all night and continue WonderTrading / GTS.
I had work at 4:30 this morning, and stayed up til like 2:30 filling in a few more 'Dex spaces while I could...much love to everyone around the globe who showed up and shared their prized friends...people were just tossing LV 100s, shinies, and version exclusives with such generosity that I could hardly stand it.
I hope to see some of you, either on Pretendo or Showdown.
I was just hatching eggs and loading those newborns with TM moves all night, sending out starters, gen-1s, Machokes, Kadabras, Gravelers, and Haunters by the dozen...what began as a race against the clock became what felt like becoming an empty-nester, dressing up all my kids in their best movements, putting either a Soda Pop, Moomoo Milk, or a Revive in their inventory, and watching them join new families....
Just checking out basic player profiles, you can see how many people came out of retirements / long breaks to show up for the occasion...I hope, full-heartedly, to hold the feelings and memories from last night for the rest of my days.
So Nintendo caused the eclipse today…
Nintendo Network is dead. Long live Pretendo Network!
Ahhh shiii my friend is trying to get his old 3ds I’m wanting to put homebrew onto it thank you for this guide
SomeOrdinaryGamers, This is great! I liked it and subscribed!
The existence of the virtual Gamecube within the virtual Wii within the Wii U is hilarious because the Wii did have Gamecube virtual console support but that was not included in the Wii U.
Same day as the eclipse, coincidence? I think not🗣🔥🔥
Bless you for spreading the good word of jailbreaking Muta
If you’re viewing this and you have a Wii U, you are genuinely in danger if you don’t hack it. If that thing bricks you’ll want to have a way to restore the NAND.
😭 rip best console. I had my Nintendo DSi and 3DS XL haven't played it really in a long time tho but... I love them 😞 Best memories with them, memories I will never ever have ever again. I bet many people feel like this.
I have a wii u in my drawer. I might use this video. Thanks muta
it's Amazing how much it can do. Also I've been playing ds games by injecting on the virtual console and it's very satisfying, I'm having a lot of fun replaying Phoenix Wright on my tv while being able to choose my evidence on the bottom screen, Also the mic works with it, pretty cool I would say.
I remember getting my first Wii for Christmas back in the day and I still think it is one of the best consoles along with the nostalgic GameCube and N64.
Muta talking about how great a hacked Wii U moment
Nintendo just terminated the online service for a generation of console, so naturally the workers in charge of maintaining it were promptly reassigned to solely taking down all and any fanmade online services. Especially, those made purely out of love for Nintendo's IPs. How dare those fans do Nintendo's jobs for them!
the fact it can run nintendo switch titles better than the switch is a crazy missed opportunity
This makes me so happy. So many people talk trash about this legendary legacy console
I feel that as soon as any game store closes and you have bought a digital game that you will no longer be able to access, that you are then entitled to a refund of the money spent on those games that you own and will not be able to legally play anymore
This really sucks, Kid Icarus Uprising had amazing multiplayer. It was like 3D Super Smash Bros with guns.
More like 3D Kirby with guns imo
The Wii u is arguably the best console to ever exist, it's homebrew, emulation and touchscreen capabilities allow you to run almost any game from any console released upto it's launch, I personally use mine to play mario and Luigi partners in time from the comfort of my couch with the functionality of both a ds and the larger screens provided from both the tv and the console
I love it but my only problem is how bulky the cables are
Mutahar out here looking MAJESTIC in the thumbnail.
Perfect timing! Still need that video about Apple allowing emulators on the App Store tho
The last firmware update that nintendo released on the Wii U actually broke my Wii U, even though I never modded or hacked it. Now neither the disc or digital titles load. :/ Gives an error code that I was not able to find info about (160-0103) . If anyone recognises the situation, let me know. :/
me when i learn that all my "SD cards" are actually just micro SD adapters
I love Muta’s enthusiasm when talking about hacking and emulators 😭🤣
The Wii U gamepad was ahead of its time. Being able to still play the Wii U while someone was watching tv was so nice. Scribblenauts Unlimited, Little Inferno, Smash 4 & Mario Maker were my favorites from that era.
I'm guessing their terms of service no longer apply now that they are no longer offering a service.
Correctamundo
I love Nintendo, but they’ve been making really shitty decisions lately.
I bricked all my wii u's. Thanks or replying and tweeting back to me Muta! Love ur channel and will continue to support you :D
Buying a Wii U now, Muta convinced me to buy a series s for PlayStation 1&2 emulating and it’s been so fun much reliving childhood memories.
Streetpass -> other 3DSes
Spotpass -> online data from nintendo sometimes when sleeping.
It was exciting just opening up to see new items and weapons in the games from spotpass and streetpass. All that magic- gone
Welp. I guess it's time to enroll my Wii U on Pretendo.
Yo, Chronicles X has a lot of quirks. For those of you looking around for it from less than reputable sources, make sure you find an update file, too. There's a really fun crash about halfway into the game that comes right after an auto save in the 1.0 version.
My Wii U is gathering dust in my room just waiting to be reborn. But I feel like I need a Muta in my life to help guide me through hacking my old systems and running emulators because, knowing myself, I'm sure I'd screw up one small step and suddenly my Wii U is bricked.
At the risk of sounding rude, did you watch the whole video? Muta @6:06 points out the Wii U Hacks Guide which, having used it myself, is straightforward as long as you take it slowly.
*hears hard knock on door, "Nintendo of America here"
mudahar: shits himself
I don’t play games anymore but this channel is still interesting af.
Muta was already based, but he ascended even higher when he mentioned Xenoblade X. That game is a hidden gem that every RPG fan should play
It is sad that Nintendo shut down the Wii U/3DS servers. Never got the chance to play online one last time. It’s great that there is a project that allows for a hacked Wii U with the ability to play the older titles again and eventually recover online servers.
You know what sucks? One of my favorite little games is "Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a Dark Lord", but it's only for Wii digital download.
Love playing it on my phone with the Dolphin emulator. It could have been a wonderful mobile game.

Muta is GLOWING in that thumbnial
Thumbnail Muta is looking good!
I don't have a Nintendo system, but I would recommend _recording_ this video *_right now,_* in case they throw a hissy fit and force Muta or UA-cam to take it down.
Pokemon Bank Services still up? or are those servers separate from the main nintendo servers?
They said they will be up longer
Um aren’t you gonna talk about the Apple emulation announcement?
he too much of a coward to say anything positive about apple
He won’t give Apple positive publicity 😂 typical android fanboy
@loko6101 Apple doing the bare minimum is nothing to be celebrated
I was wondering this
Apple emulation? What, how, why?
Muta, I thought you would acknowledge Wii U's biggest flaw too: the Wii U gamepad is region locked, and as far as I know, there's no way to region unlock the gamepad.
EDIT: The reason of wii u isn't that expensive its because the 90% of time they are sold without the gamepad, the expensive part is buying the gamepad itself
It was nice knowing you bro, Nintendo Ninjas heading your way.
