===Requires a digital-only game===
Luckily , with '''FTPiiU''' , we can use this method to transfer files wirelessly to a Wii U instead of moving the SD card back and forth each time .
These methods require a digital game from the eShop, which has since closed, making these unusable unless they were already purchased before. Past purchases can still be re-downloaded.

FTP is a way to transfer files wirelessly through a network to and from the Wii .
Luckily, with FTPiiU , we can use this method to transfer files wirelessly to a Wii U instead of moving the SD card back and forth each time.
What You Need
On your computer :
A working FTP client
Windows: Use WinSCP
Using FTP through File Explorer is not recommended . It is very unreliable.
macOS: Use Cyberduck
Linux: Nautilus or Dolphin, the file explorers for GNOME and KDE respectively - if not usable, use gFTP instead
Android 5.0 and above: Use ftpclient
iPhone: Use FTPManager
To add files to "My Files" in the app, use the default files app to move desired files to On My iPhone/FTPManager
Installation
The FTPiiU plugin can be downloaded via the Aroma Updater. The instructions below are if you want to manually install it.
Download the latest release of FTPiiU .
Extract the contents of ftpiiu_v0_3_1.zip to wiiu/environments/aroma/plugins.
Insert your SD card back into your Wii U.
If the console wasn't already off, Reboot the console after doing so.
To see your Wii U's IP, Open the plugins menu by pressing L + DPAD DOWN + Select , and you'll see it in the FTPiiU tab.
FTPiiU doesn't need to be launched on Aroma. It is a plugin, so it works automatically anywhere on the console.
Download the latest release of FTPiiU .
Extract the contents of ftpiiu.zip to the root of your SD card.
Insert your SD card into your Wii U.
Open the Homebrew Launcher (Mii Maker for Tiramisu).
Navigate to FTPiiU.
Launch FTPiiU.
Your IP will be visible at the bottom.
How to Use
If you haven't already, install the FTP client for your operating system
Open the FTP client and fill in the information as follows:
File protocol: FTP (not SFTP)
Host name/IP address: The IP address displayed on the GamePad or TV (e.g. 192.168.0.67)
This is a local IP address, so you don't need to censor it if you need assistance
Port number: Usually 21 by default, so leave it blank
If you don't see this option, instead type (ip):(port) into the host name/IP address box, e.g. 192.168.0.67:21
Username/password: If you see a checkbox for "Anonymous login", then enable it; otherwise, just leave it blank
Click "Login" or "Connect"
If prompted to enter a username or password, press ENTER to leave it blank
Your computer is now connected to your Wii U via FTP!
