Revision as of 23:01, 21 September 2018

This guide is an early work in progress.

A Wii U console with an Internet Connection - 5.5.1 or later is recommended, but anything that can run the homebrew channel for Wii U is fine
A 32GB (or higher) SD Card formatted to FAT32, or an SD card of any size and a 32GB (or higher) USB flash drive formatted to FAT32 or NTFS. Higher sizes are recommended due to every Wii U Dump being 25GB, however Wii U cannot power some external HDDs without a Y-Cable.
WUDump, to dump the actual game.
(Optional) WUDCompress to later compress the WUD into a WUX, which is a lot more space saving.

To come.
