The Wii U can natively run GameCube games due to its hardware backwards compatibility with the Wii, however the Wii U is unable to read GameCube discs. There are still multiple ways to run GameCube Games, but a modded Wii (or GameCube) is required to dump the discs. |
Dumping GameCube games:
To dump GameCube games from a modded Wii follow this guide here.
Method I: Nintendont
|
Nintendont is a homebrew app that allows you to play Backups of your GameCube games natively on (v)Wii. This method allows for storage of GameCube backups on the SD card, or an external drive connected via the Wii U's USB ports. This drive CANNOT be a Wii U formatted drive. |
The process for setting up Nintendont on vWii is identical to that of the Wii's. Please follow the Wii Hacks Guide linked below.
Continue to the Nintendont usage guide here.
Method II: Virtual Console Injections
|
Using UWUVCI you can inject your GameCube backups (packaged with Nintendont) into a Wii VC title allowing you to launch GameCube games from your Wii U menu and store them on a Wii U formatted drive. |
What you need:
- A PC running Windows (VM's work, WINE does not).
- The latest release of UWUVCI AIO.
- Ensure you also have the following installed:
- The backup of the GameCube game you wish to inject.
