Removed stuff that is extensively documented on WiiBrew, and added Espresso compat stuff
Line 2: Line 2:     
WiiMode is not emulated; it instead runs in a hardware-enforced sandbox. This results in certain Wii U mode features being available through exploits, such as [[Hardware/Espresso|Espresso]] code execution without Broadway compatibility mode enabled. None of these exploits allow a full Wii U mode takeover.

== Espresso compatibility ==
 +
Because the [[Espresso boot ROM]] only boots [[Ancast image|ancast images]], Broadway titles will not boot in their ordinary form. Instead, they must boot through a special apploader in ancast format, which then loads the title itself.

== Updates ==
If an update is available for the Wii U, the Wii Mode will be disabled until the update is done.

== Riivolution==
  −
As of June 10th 2013, Riivolution now works in wiimode on the Wii U. To run Riivolution, you can install it through the HBC by downloading the HBC first from http://please.hackmii.com, or through smashstack by downloading the .elf file from http://rvlution.net/riivolution.zip, extract the contents and place the boot.elf in the "apps" folder on the SD card, or leave boot.elf in the root of the SD card and run through smashstack.

== Working exploits ==
  −
The following list of exploits work in the Wii U's Wii Mode. Some exploits require a particular original Wii game to be inserted. All other publicly-released Wii exploits (such as Twilight Hack, [http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/Bannerbomb Bannerbomb], [http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/LetterBomb LetterBomb]) do '''not''' work in the Wii U's Wii Mode. The games used in these exploits do not support SDHC cards - use a 2GB SD card.
