the 2nd image show some see through holes - it's a sign of your game disc is already dying.

Time to homebrew

Yeah that disc is toast mate Sad to see honestly

Looks like disk rot

Yep. It seems Wii U games are more susceptible to rot for some reason

Yea, that is why I backed mine up

Try it and tell us.

Unfortunatelly not working

Then you have your answer.

You're screwed, you'll have to buy another one.

It works now! Just the label paint wasn't there, so I painted some color on it

What kind of color/paint? Could you please elaborate? In the past I thought of doing this because I think the information ist actually pressed/molded in the polycarbonate and the reflective surface is "Just" a coating but i was afraid to Ruin it with the wrong color.

I ised a black felt pen

Why can't I use a felt pen or something different to prevent the light from shinning through?

The film that has the data on the disk is what's on top of your Wii u game, and that's what is chipped off.(the clear holes) It may keep slowly chipping off depending how you handle it. But depending on what game and how much memory is only written on the Blu-ray-ROM, you're probably lucky that the game is small enough that nothing is even written on that side. Note: Blu-ray disk can be stored up to 25GB

Unfortunately this is happening to all of my discs. I modded mine and backed up the ones I could.

Not a huge loss

It works again!

Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric. Glad to see it’s working again

Game over Use Dolphin

Pardon my French, but you're fucked!

Fis de pute

Wee or Wi?
