This is a quick start guide on how to use USB Loader GX, a popular USB loader for the Wii that’s used to play games from a USB drive.

What you need

Wii U USB helper will let you download Wii U games directly to your PC and even copy them over to your SD / Micro SD card. Wii U USB Helper acts pretty much as a mirror of the current eShop, however, it does also allow you to create custom games to install directly to your Wii U or Wii U’s attached HDD (Recommended). Are you looking for Cemu Title Keys? WII U Title Keys will offer you USB helper and for cemu. We use WiiU Title Key DB Cemu Wii U Emulator Game Key Database Press Ctrl. The Wii Homebrew Channel and Browser. With the Wii Homebrew Channel and Homebrew Browser installed, you can download custom games and apps. Use the tabs at the top of the menu to browse the different categories. After selecting the apps you wish to install, you can access them from the Wii Homebrew Channel. Hmm that's a bit dissapointing because I wanted it strictly for Wii U stuff. So will any Flash drive work with Wii U? Also what's the maximum GB size I can use? Thanks for all your help so far guys! =D Flash Drives and external hard drives work with the Wii U just fine.

  • A Wii
  • A USB drive

Make sure you have installed cIOS before following this!

We recommend you copy games over with Wii Backup Manager if you use Windows, or Witgui if you use macOS.

To play multiple games, we recommend a USB-powered external hard drive for your Wii. We will refer to it as a “USB drive” in this guide. Most of the ones you can find on the market should work fine if they have USB 2 backwards compatibility. Drives with 1 TB or more in capacity will work. A flash drive will also work, but due to the size of a flash drive, it won’t be able to store as many games.

Make sure your USB drive is formatted as FAT32 or NTFS. Do not format it as other types such as extFS or WBFS, the latter is an old format of storing Wii games.

Instructions

Downloading
  1. Extract USB Loader GX and put it in the apps folder on your USB drive or SD card.
  2. Insert your USB drive, and SD card if you’re using one, into your Wii and launch USB Loader GX from the Homebrew Channel.
Getting Started

There is no “guide” to use the USB Loader GX app. This is intended to help you learn how to use it, by giving you a quick start. You should be able to figure out all the great features of USB Loader GX by using it.

  • If USB Loader GX says “Waiting for HDD…” with a 20 seconds countdown, it’s likely that it can’t find the USB drive. Try to exit out of the app, and then relaunch it after you put the USB drive in the other port of the Wii.
  • You can press the 1 Button on your Wii Remote to open up a dialog to download game covers and artwork from GameTDB. It might take a while to download the game covers and artwork, depending on how many games you have.
  • There are WADs that can open up USB Loader GX if you load it from the Wii Menu. This is called a forwarder WAD. An official forwarder WAD can be found here, and a version for the vWii (Wii U) can be found here.
  • GameCube or “custom” Wii games may or may not have a custom banner that USB Loader GX uses. To enable this, find or write CustomBannersURL = http://banner.rc24.xyz/ in config/GXGlobal.cfg on your USB drive. Then you can use the “Custom Banner” download by pressing the 1 Button on your Wii Remote.
