The Wii U YouTube app was discontinued on October 27, 2022, rendering it inaccessible. The app checked service status by requesting a token, but after discontinuation, the response indicated a "Service has expired" error, causing display issues.

This plugin ensures the app receives a successful response when checking service status, allowing the YouTube app to function.

Installation

Make sure you're using Aroma then download and copy the GiveMiiYouTube.wps to wiiu/environments/aroma/plugins.

  • On October 31, 2022 YouTube started returning response 404 for the WiiU useragent platform.
  • This plugin now additionally patches the platform in the useragent for the YouTube app to NoU instead of WiiU, which bypasses this block.
