Ourloader is an application that enables playing retail Wii U discs from other another region, also known as freeloading. This circumvents region-locking.
Description
USA/EUR/JP game discs can be played on any USA/EUR/JP consoles, without the region of the disc needing to match the region of the console.
Usage
1. Insert the disc from different region into the Wii U.
2. Mount disk by trying to load the disk from the HOME Menu (you will have an error).
3. Then, start the app and press A to continue. The game should start as if it weren't region-locked.
Issues
Some games still won't work due to using different language files.
Development
The development thread and compatibility can be followed in the release thread on GBATemp.
