While of course simply loading your Wii disc from the Home Menu allows you to play Wii games, there are multiple ways to load backups of your Wii discs on your Wii U. You first must dump your Wii discs to get started.

Dumping Wii games:

To dump your Wii games from your modded vWii follow this guide here.

Method I: USB Loaders

USB Loaders allow you to load backups of your Wii discs from your USB or SD card. They include great features such as, the ability to remove the de-flicker filter on Wii games, allowing automatic Wiimifi patching, and more. You CANNOT use a Wii U formatted drive for USB loaders.

The process for setting up USB loaders on vWii is identical to that of the Wii's. Please follow the Wii Hacks Guide linked below.

Method II: Virtual Console Injections

Using UWUVCI you can inject backups of any Wii game into preexisting Virtual Console titles and launch them from your Wii U Home Menu. This allows you to store Wii games on a Wii U formatted drive, use the Game Pad by emulating various controller configurations, and more.

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:
    • .net Framework 4.8 .
    • .net Core 3.1 Desktop Runtime.
• The backup of the Wii game you wish to inject.
