How To Get Wii U Menu On Cemu Hot May 2026

Cemu will now recognize “Wii U Menu” as an installed title.

Put the Wii U Menu folder in:

cemu\mlc01\usr\title\00050010\1004000A

Example full path:
C:\cemu\mlc01\usr\title\00050010\1004000A\

Inside that folder, your files should look like: how to get wii u menu on cemu hot

1004000A/
  code/
    app.xml
    cos.xml
    rpx (or .app)
  content/
    (various .app, .arc, .bflan, etc.)
  meta/
    (meta.xml, iconTex.tga, bootDrcTex.tga, etc.)

Note: Some packs come as a single 00000000.app + ticket/tmd — you may need to extract them into the above structure.

If you get a black screen or error, here is the fix order:

| Symptom | "Hot" Fix | | :--- | :--- | | Quick crash on launch | Missing otp.bin or seeprom.bin. Re-dump them. | | Stuck on "Preparing..." | Corrupt slccmpt. Delete nand/slccmpt and re-dump. | | Error 160-0103 | Account mismatch. Use Cemu's "Create Account" tool in Title Manager. | | No sound in Plaza | Go to Options > Audio. Set API to "XAudio2" (Not Cubeb). | | GamePad screen is blank | Press Ctrl + Tab to focus the GamePad view. |

Cemu (version 1.25.0 and later) supports loading the Wii U menu (also known as the “Wii U HOME Menu”) when the correct system files are available. This enables users to emulate the complete console experience rather than individual game titles. Select the menu

Without this, the menu crashes instantly.

Boom. The authentic Wii U menu should load—with music, icons, and all.

Forget the old "Dump your NAND" 10-step rituals. The community legal method (requiring your own console) has been streamlined. Crucially: You must own a Wii U. We cannot host copyrighted files, but we can show you how to extract them efficiently.

What you need:

The "Pro" shortcut: Use Cemu's "Online Account" feature with a real otp.bin and seeprom.bin. Without these, the Wii U Menu will crash on launch (Error 160-0103). We will cover this.

Review Score: 6/10 (Good for novelty, bad for usability)

Getting the Wii U Menu (the grid-like dashboard with the Wara Wara Plaza) running on Cemu is a very cool "party trick." It delivers a massive nostalgia hit to see the icons, the background music, and the Miis wandering around.

However, as a practical way to play games, it is significantly worse than the standard Cemu interface. Cemu will now recognize “Wii U Menu” as
