there's one guy on miiverse who seems to buy and make the first comment for every single game ever. i keep waiting for him to open the comment section for steel lords, but apparently even he cannot bring himself to buy it.

@DiscoGentleman don't know whether this helps anyone, but i found a clumsy way to back up save files on wii u. this can be done with two external drives, or with one external plus internal memory.

i take one game and copy it from the drive where it is to the other one. now having two copies of the whole thing (game + save file), it's possible and safe to go into one of them and delete the software part. what remains is the save file. so you could do this many times and keep a flash drive full of save files.

so, while nintendo doesn't allow me to go into the game and copy that save file, it does allow me to copy the whole 10 gb of w101 and then delete the 10gb without deleting the save file. it's all quite stupid, but gets the job done.

so maybe nintendo does want my money after all. i guess this basically makes it unnecessary for me to buy a jailbroken wii, as xenoblade was the big rare game that was too expensive to buy used.

this gives me a little bit of naïve hope that they will at least have the decency to make this a monster year for older titles on wii u, including skyward, sunshine, gx.

but of course they will find a way to disappoint me.
