* '''Can be reverted?''' No, if starting from a WiiU disc image; Yes (see below) if starting from extracted files
* '''Playable on Hardware?''' Yes (after installation)

Consisting of a folder containing *.app, *.h3, title.cert, title.tik, and title.tmd files, this official Nintendo format is how digital tiles are stored on discs and some system titles are stored on the console and is very similar to how they titles are stored on the CDN(on the CDN the files are named differently, .app files are encrypted with the title key and common keys and the tmd has a certificate chain on the end that is same for every tmd). This is equivalent to the contents of files contained within a 3DS CIA file; however unlike a 3DS applicationtitle, converting a disc title to digital does not require modifying the title itself, thus leaving the title's signatures valid.
