Dump the game files from the console to your computer using [https://gbatemp.net/threads/ddd-wiiu-title-dumper.418492/ ddd]. If any add-on-content (aoc) is installed, that will be dumped at the same time.
The easiest method for dumping BOTW in a manner compatible with tools like Cemu and BCML is to use Dumpling.
 
=== Prerequisites ===
* BOTW 1.5.0 on your Wii U
* Modded Wii U with Homebrew Launcher
 
=== Dumping your game files ===
# Download the latest release of Dumpling from [https://github.com/emiyl/dumpling/releases here].
# Extract the ZIP to the root of your SD card.
# Before running Dumpling, disable auto power off and standby on your Wii U.
# Insert any USB devices or game discs you’d like to use in the dump process.
# Open Dumpling from the Homebrew Launcher.
# Select "Dump digital games" or "Dump a game disc" as appropriate.
# Select BOTW using the (A) button and then press (START) (selection N/A if using a disc). Make sure to check the boxes for base game, update, and (if applicable) DLC.
# Set the dump destination.
# Select (START) to begin dumping (which can take a ''very'' long time).
# Once finished, you can put the SD card into your PC and, if desired, copy the files onto your hard drive for use with modding tools or whatever else.

Dump the game files directly to your SD card using nxdumptool. Update data can only be processed if the base game is available, because they share the same filesystem. DLCs don't, so they have to be dumped separately.

'''Warning''': Running homebrew on the Switch can get you banned from Nintendo online services if you aren't careful. If you do not want to leave any traces, turn on airplane mode, back up your eMMC '''before running any homebrew''' and do not ever go online before you have restored the backup.
