Ive only had a few quirky things happen with my Wii. Wii remotes not turning on and staying on, freezing at random times during a game just to name a few. But other than that i havent had a problem in over 6 months probably, and i got my Wii way back in '06 for christmas.

I was wondering if anyone out there could possibly answer my question. I bought a Wii like four days ago, and I was playing Brawl, I paused it, accidentally left it like that for like two or three hours, and now it doesn't work. When I turn it on, it just has a black screen, and won't do anything. It seems to be getting a signal because, when I turn it on, the "No Signal" sign goes away, so I just figured it has overheated.

My suggestions are:
1. try unplugging, wait 5 min. plug back in 2. turn off manually. wait, turn back on 3. make sure the wii is in a open space

Yeah thanks. It has been unplugged for two days now, and I tried the battery thing also, with no success. The Wii remote wont even work, it will just flash all of the blue lights, and then they will go off. The Wii will come on,the blue light comes on, and it acts like it works, but when I try to turn it off it, I have to hold down the power button for 5 seconds or so. So idk what I should do.

I have had too many problems with my wii. The first time i got my wii it wouldn't read any discs. I kept getting disc read errors. So i called nintendo customer support and they sent me a new one. Next time i get my Wii back it is probably louder than an xbox and is making a loud whistling noise. I call nintendo support and they say that is should not be doing that and send me a new one. I get my new wii back and everytime i play a game it makes a loud grinding noise and occasionally will not read my discs. This was right when mario galaxy came out too. (great timing). I call customer support again. I know the number by heart now and probably can call all the people by their names. I get another wii and right out of the box the red led light is on when i plug the power source in, but when i press the button the wii just goes dead and nothing happens. I let the wii sit there for about 15 minutes while i am pissed off, then somehow it starts working. This wii is going strong for a few months and everything is good in the world. Smash comes out and the only character left for me to get is wolf. i have played 430 something matches and only need 450 more to unlock him. Then guess what the same problem with the red led light and the wii goes completely dead. My amazing smash game is in there and it is too late at night to call nintendo. I have to go to bed pissed off and most likely lose all of my saved files once again. If it wasn't for smash i would probably have thrown my wii right out of my window. So tomorrow i will get to wake up and talk to all of my friends over at nintendo support once again. My wii's just have a horrible knack for timing. ONLY 20 MORE MATCHES TO UNLOCK ALL THE CHARACTERS...

Hi, I just bought a Wii a couple weeks ago from a friend. (it's like new, he hardly played it.) It is now about a year or so old. He only had 3 games for it (including WiiSports) and really only dabbled with it for the first couple of weeks he owned it, really nothing saved to the hard drive or anything.
To get to the problem: My Wii has been constantly freezing up whilst loading a game. Basically it sounds almost as if it can't read the disc inserted. Then the screen will go black, and an error message appears stating that an error has occured, and that I should remove the disc, and shut off the power, but when I go to do either thing, it does not respond. The game disc does NOT eject, nor when I push the power button does the system turn off. I have to unplug the system and replug it back in before I can do anything else. This usually happens about 1-3 times on occasion. It does not happen everytime, but when it does, it usually happens at least 2 or 3 times before the game works. Just wondering if anyone else has this problem, and if there's an easy way to fix it, or what I can do to prevent it from happening. Thanks! |
