I recently modeled by Wii U but now when I turn it on, it doesn’t connect to the TV. The light turns blue and everything. It just doesn’t wanna eject discs or appear on the TV? My game pad works will never connect my beep pad to the Wii so it’s not connecting.

I bought a Wii U that came with a 500GB HDD, used in conjunction with an adapter and a Y-cable. After a while, the HDD started acting up, eventually failing completely, the drive would spin up and then stop repeatedly. I later replaced it with a portable HDD, but that one also stopped working after a short period. It seems like there might be an issue with the power supply from the Wii U’s USB ports, perhaps a voltage drop or something similar. Has anyone else experienced this? If my USB drives are degrading, what should I do?

I saw someone show themselves playing halo CE on their Wii U, was hoping someone could point me in the right direction, as I haven’t been able to find it.
So I brought a Wii u and modded it but have never really touched it so going to give it away. I want to offer it to someone unmodded as I feel that will be their preference but I just don’t know how to tell if I soft modded or hard modded it. I saw someone say just take out the SD(?) and it will boot to stock if it’s soft modded, but I don’t know the difference between what a stock boot and modded boot would look like, and I can’t for the life of me remember anything about the modding process.

ive just modded my wii U and 32gb internal (SD) card is not enough for the games i want to install. ive searched or recently viewed that the modders were using USB Y connector to connect to their HDD. is it necessary or i can just use an ordinary single one. i dont have HDD and a connector rn, basically the reason im asking. and one more thing. ive got an old internal HDD from my old PC, i believe it is still working. can i use it as will and find a right cable/connector to use it as my Wii U's external storage? many thanks good sir/s

I got a Wii U and gamepad from GameStop a year or so ago, eventually the battery went dead and I had to remove it, but one of the screws was totally stripped out so I had to cut a chunk out of the back door to replace it, and in general the gamepad shell and sticks are all marked up. Does anyone have a recommendation as to where to get a new/used shell, thumb sticks, and probably digitizer? Thanks! Wish the Wii U was popular enough for there to be all kinds of custom shells for it.
Hi everyone! If you ran into Error 150-3032 on your Wii U, it usually happens due to corrupted data or bad sectors on your external hard drive. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to check if your drive is still alive, format it properly, and recover your save files using dumpsterU and SaveMii.
Before doing anything, verify whether the hard drive suffered a permanent hardware failure or if it still responds:
diskpart and press Enter.list disk and press Enter.To extract your save files before formatting:
otp.bin and seeprom.bin files (you can dump these easily using nanddumper or similar homebrew tools on your Wii U).otp.bin and seeprom.bin files when prompted.save.data) for the games you want to recover.
Once your saves are safely backed up, wipe the drive clean to remove the corrupted Wii U file system:
diskpart again.list disk.select disk X (replace X with the exact number of your Wii U hard drive).clean and press Enter.dumpsterU extracts save folders in Cemu-compatible layout (with account subfolders like 80000001 or common folders). To allow SaveMii to detect them on your Wii U, organize your SD card folders like this:
000500001010EC00) on sites likeutik.91wii.com.SD:/wiiu/backups/[TitleID]/0/80000001/
SD:/wiiu/backups/backups, create a folder named after the Title ID of the game.0 (or 000).80000001 and common, if present) inside that 0 folder.0.80000001) and select the target Wii U user profile you want to assign the save to.And that's it! Once you boot up your game, your saved progress will be fully restored and the 150-3032 error resolved.
