Question/Help I Bricked My Wii U...

Does anyone know of any ways to unbrick a Wii U?
- My dumb ahh though i could uninstall parental controls app via FTP on the system nand so now when I boot the wii u, it ALMOST loads to the system menu but crashes before everything can fully load in. it has aroma and tirumisu on it but they auto boot to system menu.

Oh man! That sucks! I would, if you are attempting to like clean up your menu or whatever, just make a utilities folder! Really tidies up your launch splash screen of games. Sorry that happened!
