Question for you. I tried to play a Wii game on the Wii U, and it didn't read my save data for that game. When I popped it in the pc I saw the files were there. Also, I had purchased two games Mario 64 and Super Mario. I was able to see them from the SD section of the Wii menu, but I couldn't load them to play. What can I do to get this to work?

You performed the proper migration from your Wii to your Wii U ? If so, I don't know - ask Nintendo.

I no longer have a Wii. I wonder if I could use a gamesave hack. I don't want to have to unlock all the characters again.

So you're just inserting the Wii disc and the SD card you kept from your Wii, and expecting it to work? I honestly don't know if it's going to work or not, I was under the impression you had to do the data migration from the Wii to the Wii U.

That's only if you want to keep your old account that's stored on the Wiis internal memory. By any chance do you know how to set the HD option on youtube from the Wii U?

Just try copying the lot, see if that works, but make a back-up before you do.
