About wumiibo

A rewrite of the 3DS NFC system module that can stand in for amiibo. 0004013000004002.cxi is the replacement module and wumiibohelper.cia is the helper app that goes with it. The usage guide on the project's wiki covers setup. It needs the latest Luma3DS.

It runs through Luma's game patching, so to use real amiibo again, turn game patching off in the Luma menu.

Some games freeze after the wumiibo menu closes. For those, start the game, press HOME, open the wumiibo menu from there, then go back to the game. Don't open the wumiibo menu inside those games. The compatibility list on the wiki says which ones.
