# Choose The CFW You Want
|
|
---
|
|
?> Before starting, make sure to update your Wii U console to the latest firmware (5.5.4 for European consoles, 5.5.3 for all other regions) if you haven't already.
|
|
|
|
There are two main CFWs: Haxchi/ColdBootHaxchi (CBHC) or Mocha.
|
|
Haxchi/CBHC are both injected into a paid DS VC game, while Mocha is only used with the web browser exploit and Indexiine, which makes it the only free CFW.
|
|
|
|
## Haxchi
|
|
|
|
- Requires a legitimately installed paid DS VC game from the eShop.
|
|
- Can be used to launch CFW directly from the Wii U Menu.
|
|
- Needs to be re-launched from the Wii U Menu every reboot to enable CFW.
|
|
- Its functionality can be extended by installing ColdBootHaxchi (CBHC) to a Haxchi installation.

## CBHC
|
|
|
|
!> Installing CBHC incorrectly can brick your Wii U. Make sure to follow the following rules when installing CBHC: <br>- The DS game has to be legitimately installed from the eShop <br>- Don't format the system while CBHC is installed <br>- Don't delete the user account that bought the DS VC game <br>- Don't re-install the same game using WUP Installer or from the eShop <br>- Don't install Haxchi over CBHC <br>- Don't uninstall the DS Virtual Console game without [properly uninstalling CBHC first](uninstall-cbhc) <br>- Don't move the DS Virtual Console game to a USB drive
|
|
|
|
!> Breaking one of the above rules will result in a brick.
|
|
|
|
- Requires a legitimately installed paid DS VC game from the eShop.
|
|
- Automatically launches CFW on every boot.

|
|
|
|
## Mocha
|
|
|
|
- Does not require any game, and is therefore free.
|
|
- Needs to be re-launched through the browser exploit every reboot to enable CFW.
|
|
- Is not compatible with the Homebrew Launcher Channel.
|
|
- May require an Internet connection depending on what entry point you choose.
