Dumping Wii U Discs

Dumper vos disques vous permet d'installer une copie de votre jeu sur la NAND / un périphérique USB afin que vous puissiez y jouer sans avoir besoin du disque.

TIP

Dumping and installing games requires a working Homebrew setup, so make sure to finish the main guide on installing CFW first before following this.

DANGER

It is ILLEGAL to share the files dumped with this guide.

If you intend to use this guide to share your dumped games, don't.

Dumping and Installing Wii U Discs

TIP

Installing a game to the system memory (NAND) is not recommended as it's limited to either 8GB or 32GB depending on your model, making you run out of space pretty quickly if you want to install multiple games.

TIP

When installing a game to a USB device, we recommend that you use an HDD and not a flash drive, as those are not optimized for constant reading and writing, therefore making them fail quickly. Si votre disque dur n'est pas alimenté par une source externe, vous aurez besoin d'un câble en Y pour le connecter à deux ports USB sur la Wii U.

DANGER

In order to install to a USB device, it has to be formatted by the Wii U. Doing this will erase (delete) all contents (documents, pictures, videos, PC data) off of it, and prevent it from being used on another system unless you reformat it. This does include the vWii, meaning you will not be able to run Wii and GameCube disc images off the USB using USB loaders. To format, plug your USB HDD into the Wii U, power on your Wii U, your Wii U will prompt you to format your HDD. Confirm with Yes.
