I also show how to copy over the great Anbernic GB/GBA bezels over to muOS - hope you find it helpful!

I recently removed my softmod by accident so why not dive into the latest Aroma softmod environment and see what it can do. Aroma is a super slick Wii U softmod environment for enabling homebrew on your Wii U, and can be added using this very easy jailbreak method. After the environment loader is installed, you could also jump into other environments with ease, such as Tiramisu.
