I deleted youtube a while back (This was before i discovered givemiiyoutube) and I can’t seem to redownload it. How do I fix this? Is there a way I can go to the eshop on my nintendo network account to redownload it? I went and saw it was already downloaded but when i went to redownload it the software wasn’t available. Can I get it back?
I’ve had to edit your post for obvious reasons but I’m keeping this up for people who want to redownload YouTube: it was removed from the eShop.
It was removed in April 2022, a few months prior to it not working.
The YouTube app for Wii U (and likely 3DS as well) straight up does not exist on the CDN anymore. There is no way to get legitimately get the app again, even if you had purchased it in the past. Even things like “That App” can’t get it, because again it’s not even on the CDN anymore
YouTube is not the only app like this. You can check Title database - WiiUBrew for a list of known Wii U titles. Any listed as “No TMD” or “Removed on date” are straight up deleted from the CDN and can’t be obtained anymore
As a polite reminder to anyone responding to this post: we do not permit the discussion of piracy. Unless things have changed lately, I was able to access YouTube TV through a web browser or you could just use another device.
Even though YouTube was a free application, it’s still piracy downloading from an unofficial source.
Edit: apparently you haven’t been able to access it through the web browser on some consoles since July.
