Quote:Members of Wii U Hax have found an exploit in the Wii U. The exploit can be found in the system’s Wii Mode and from there you can apparently gain access to the Wii U hardware. This exploit can’t be patched by Nintendo through updates, the only way they can fix it is hardcoding the hardware itself. The exploit will supposedly allow you to access homebrew.

Thanks, WiiUMasterRace

Probably not just homebrew, but pirated commercial games as well.

Looks like future Wii-U models might be missing BC with Wii.

Really? A dolphin dev has already made a post on his own blog explaining why this is overhyped bullshit, and it still gets regurgitated here?

Why are you acting so salty? I don't read every blog on the internet before I post a comment on an internet forums. I just thought people might be interested in the news.

It's not news, it's lies. It has nothing to do with running homebrew or warez, or getting access to the wii U hardware from wii mode.
