All these methods assume you have modded your vWii. If have you not, follow this guide here.

OOjs UI icon information-progressive.svg 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

OOjs UI icon information-progressive.svg USB Loaders allow you to load backups of your Wii discs from an external drive via your Wii U's USB ports or SD card.

Instructions

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

OOjs UI icon information-progressive.svg UWUVCI allows you to inject any Wii backup into a preexisting Virtual Console title, and install it to your Wii U's internal storage, or an external drive connected via the Wii U's USB ports.

Instructions

What you need

  • A PC running Windows (VM's work, WINE does not).
  • The latest release of UWUVCI AIO.
  • Sigpatches on your Wii U.
    • Download 01_sigpatches.rpx from the github here.
    • Copy this file to your sd:/wiiu/enviornments/[Aroma or Tiramisu]/modules/setup folder.
  • The backup of the Wii game you wish to inject.
