### Homebrew

Homebrew 是由用户自制的且 Nintendo 没有授权的程序。 包括存档修改器、游戏和模拟器等等。

只要你有办法将文件放进 SD 卡就可以破解最新版本的 Wii U。

### 自制固件

自制固件（也被称为 “CFW”）允许你对设备进行普通的 Homebrew 程序无法做到的更高级的破解。 例如：轻松为游戏安装 Mod。
任何主机在升级到最新版本后都可以安装 CFW。

### Homebrew & CFW Uses

除了别的以外它允许你做以下事情：

- 对你的游戏使用金手指。
- 为许多游戏备份、修改和还原存档。
- 使用模拟器来玩旧主机游戏：RetroArch 或者其他独立的模拟器。
- 玩跨区游戏。
- 将你的 Wii U 游戏光盘里的游戏转换为可以在 Wii U 内部或外部存储器安装的格式。

### 最终目标

本手册的最终目标是将一台原厂 Wii U 破解并使用自制固件。

### 开始前准备

::: danger

Before beginning the guide, you must know the risks of Wii U hacking: **EVERY** time you modify your system, there is always the potential for an **UNRECOVERABLE** brick. They’re rare but still a possibility so make sure you follow **ALL** directions **EXACTLY!**

:::

::: info

This guide will work on all Wii U consoles in all regions on the latest firmware (5.5.6 for North American consoles, 5.5.5 for all other regions) or below.

为了成功地做完本手册，你需要准备以下物品：

- 一张 SD 卡。
- 一台能够向 SD 卡存入文件的设备（比如电脑）。
- A Wii U with internet access.

A 32GB SD Card will be enough for most use-cases. A Micro SD Card in an adapter will work fine.

**If you have an existing legacy CFW setup**

- For **CBHC** users: Go to the [Uninstall CBHC](uninstall-cbhc) page to uninstall CBHC.
- For **Haxchi** users: Uninstall the Haxchi app from Data Management in the System Settings app.
- For **Mocha CFW (Indexiine)** users: Go to the [Uninstall Indexiine](uninstall-indexiine) page to uninstall Indexiine.
- For **Mocha CFW (Online Exploit)** users: You do not need to do anything before following this guide.

按照本教程给的步骤进行破解不会丢失你的数据（游戏、NNID和存档等等都应会被保存）。

在做步骤的时候请将你的主机接上充电器充电，以避免意外关机造成数据丢失或损坏。

After following this guide, CFW will be loaded and enabled on boot, unless you choose to not follow the Autobooting Aroma section.

请从头开始阅读此手册，完成一项或若干次操作后再继续进行操作步骤。
