IOS59 is an IOS that is only used by titles that require WFS functionality, such as Dragon Quest X and the USB Repair Channel (both Japan exclusive). It is based on either IOS57 or IOS58 and has these modules added:

  • USB_SHARED
  • WFSKRN - Module to handle access to WFS devices
  • WFSI - Module to install content to WFS devices

The WFS implementation in this IOS has been ported over from IOSU, the OS of the Wii U. Like with IOS58, USB 2.0 is supported.
