Wii U:YouTube

On October 31, 2022 YouTube started returning response 404 for the WiiU useragent platform. However, with Aroma custom firmware, it is possible once again to use the YouTube app on the Wii U.

You MUST already have the latest version of the YouTube app on your Wii U console before the eshop shut down. It is not possible to redownload the title from the Wii U Eshop at this time.

Usage

Pretendo Network is able to run youtube from the Wii U menu as long as the NNID that you used to purchase YouTube from the Eshop is still present on the console. You can visit here to learn how to set up pretendo. After that, you should be able to launch YouTube as normal.

Download the latest version of the GiveMiiYouTube plugin and save the .wps file to SD:/wiiu/environments/aroma/plugins. From there, you should be able to launch YouTube as normal.
