Players should instead download as many levels as they can, and then with a hacked Wii u copy the levels to pc

I wouldn't be surprised if people made a server with all the levels and the ability to make more and share them on emulators. We already have multiplayer on emulators.

Already been done, there's a data dump of every MM1 course on archive.org. The dump is dated but it came after level uploads for MM1 were shut down so it should be about as complete as it gets, minus courses deleted by Nintendo before that.

Actually playing anything seems to be quite complex but there's some instructions in the reviews, so it should be doable for someone to set up a replacement server in the future (Pretendo network already has the basics for custom Wii U online running).

I wonder if I have some, back in the day I downloaded everything that I could, even the amiibo courses.
