Choose The CFW You Want

---

?> Before starting, make sure to update your Wii U console to the latest firmware (5.5.4 for European consoles, 5.5.3 for all other regions) if you haven't already.

There are two main CFWs: Haxchi/ColdBootHaxchi (CBHC) or Mocha.
Haxchi/CBHC are both injected into a paid DS VC game, while Mocha is only used with the web browser exploit and Indexiine, which makes it the only free CFW.

Haxchi

• Requires a legitimately installed paid DS VC game from the eShop.
• Can be used to launch CFW directly from the Wii U Menu.
• Needs to be re-launched from the Wii U Menu every reboot to enable CFW.
• Its functionality can be extended by installing ColdBootHaxchi (CBHC) to a Haxchi installation.

CBHC

!> Installing CBHC incorrectly can brick your Wii U. Make sure to follow the following rules when installing CBHC:
- The DS game has to be legitimately installed from the eShop
- Don't format the system while CBHC is installed
- Don't delete the user account that bought the DS VC game
- Don't re-install the same game using WUP Installer or from the eShop
- Don't install Haxchi over CBHC
- Don't uninstall the DS Virtual Console game without properly uninstalling CBHC first
- Don't move the DS Virtual Console game to a USB drive

!> Breaking one of the above rules will result in a brick.

• Requires a legitimately installed paid DS VC game from the eShop.
• Automatically launches CFW on every boot.

Mocha

• Does not require any game, and is therefore free.
• Needs to be re-launched through the browser exploit every reboot to enable CFW.
• Is not compatible with the Homebrew Launcher Channel.
• May require an Internet connection depending on what entry point you choose.
