### Different CFWs
|
||
|
||
?> 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.
|
||
|
||
The first thing to decide is what CFW you want to use.
|
||
|
||
There are two main CFWs: Haxchi/ColdBootHaxchi (CBHC) and Mocha.<br>
|
||
The table below lists advantages and disadvantages of each option.
|
||
|
||
<!-- tabs:start -->
|
||
|
||
#### **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.
|
||
- It's 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:<br>- The DS game has to be legitimately installed from the eShop<br>- Don't format the system while CBHC is installed<br>- Don't delete the user account that bought the DS VC game<br>- Don't re-install the same game using WUP Installer or from the eShop<br>- Don't install Haxchi over CBHC
|
||
|
||
!>Breaking one of the above rules will result in a brick.
|
||
|
||
- Same (dis)advantages as Haxchi, but 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.
|
||
|
||
|

|
||
### Compatible DS VC Games
|
||
|
||
!> If you are installing Haxchi or CBHC, make sure to unplug any USB devices attached to the console before installing the DS game and further following the guide!
|
||
|
||
?> This is only needed if you want to use Haxchi or CBHC as your CFW. Mocha CFW does not require a game.
