  • Bought this Wii U many years a go and its been in a cupboard ever since, I thought it didn't output a picture so would need a new hdmi chip but wasn't expecting to find it was bricked!
    Had a few spare Rp2040 chips so decided to see if it could be used to flash a Wii U to save it.
    The chip costs around £6 ($7.66) so well worth trying.

    Hello, I want your advice, my console has memory error 160-0103, but only when you go into the settings, the game from the Nintendo land disk and some shortcuts open, but without settings, because of this error, the console turned into a brick, as I understand correctly, this method will help should I solve this problem? Nintendo Wii U 32gb premium pack E region console, I can’t view the firmware version due to an error!

    Great video. My WiiU has a blinking blue light all the time and there is no signal on the TV. Can I use the same method to fix it? Thanks in advance for your help

      Couldn't say for certain but if you don't think it can get any worse might be worth trying?

      basically if you don’t have isfxhax installed prior to whatever caused the brick, you’re screwed and this is the only way (however, it’s kinda a superpower to fix ANY brick once it’s in there :))

    Hi and thanks for the tip :) ! Sadly My RPI disconnects after drag/drop but the file is not present...Windows says my peripheral can't be configured does anybody have the same problem ? if so, how can I solve the problem ? Thanks guys ;) ! I got exactly the same RPI on the video ordered from Aliexpress

      When you drag a file to these, they do disconnect and don't then show up with any files on, this means it has the file installed correctly

    what about all the saved files and everything that you downloaded before, is it still there ?

    • @fixingmoddingbuilding
      @fixingmoddingbuilding  11 месяцев назад +1

      To be honest I bought it years ago faulty so it wasn't mine but to be honest if I had to guess I would say it would wipe it all completely
