That rare wii with the black washed out screen is a capacitor issue, You need to replace the exploded capacitors/screen filters inside and it will work. Worst case scenario you gotta remove the chip from a less profitable wii and put it in that one
It boggles my mind that people don't factory reset and wipe their hard drives before selling electronics. If you ever bought one of my old consoles, not only would there not be a game in the drive but it's memory would be blank.
Same here especially with cell phones and tablets like just randomly donating or recycling your phone with all your personal data pictures and info on it like why reset that stuff people before donating the old phone or tablet
You cant use their account legally. Most of the time account sharing is against the T&C. Any digital games are worthless because you dont own them and cant transfer them. You have to delete the old accounts.
a lot of consoles are donated by parents who have never once ever played their children's consoles, and wouldn't know to factory reset them in the first place.
Imagine someone has a bookshelf of physical discs and they decide to open all the cases to make sure all the discs are in a good shape, and the only one that's missing is being reviewed by a RU-vidr saying that the console with the disc you were looking for is roasting is roasting it.
this litterally was my wii and thats pretty much exactly what happened. i noticed it was gone awhile ago... i had like 20 broken wiis and istg i checked them all for disks but this is indeed my wii, the faint bit of home screen i can see proves it. this specific wii i leant to my grandma and i have no clue what she did to it. sadly that copy had a bit of sentimental value since it was my first game i played EVER, but i donated it quite awhile ago and have come to terms with the loss. i definately will remember to be more diligent in the future. i still have the box on my shelf as a reminder. if the person who bought the game happens to be reading this, i would be willing to pay double whatever you bought it for, due to the sentimental value. edit: no these consoles where not donated together as i have never owned a naruto game, nor WANTED to
I've seen both the blacked out screen and washed out white screen a few times and there's a couple of repairs you can try. Since you've covered the cable and settings you're going to have to look inside at the AV board area. It might be a capacitor for either issue. So if you see one bloated with it's guts leaking out then that's obvious. But it could also be the chip itself that fried. One other thing to try first is to clean the av socket really good with iso alcohol and blow the wii out really well. You'll be amazed what a stray pet hair or build up will cause to happen. Hopefully the cleaning works and it's not more invasive. If it's the chip then you're better off just Frankensteining a wii out of the one with data and possibly another with other issues and putting a whole one together while the other becomes spare parts.
i think the problem with the wii is with capacitors, because its black and dark, MattKC had a similiar problem when he bought a 1$ wii from Japan after that it look normal, so you can try replacing them!
both of those wiis have capacitor problems. Notice how it was normal at the beginning and it got worse after time. That's because capacitors charge over time, and that explains the problem perfectly. I hope I helped you! MattKC has a video with a 1$ Wii that had the same type of problem.
One reason to Format your Hard Drives before Donating them or Selling them. So people Can't Use your Old Profiles. Better Yet, Just Keep Your Consoles, Zero Reasons to Sell or Donate them.
since you don't own pokemon xd and if you played in past or want to play it again if you have wii you can always mod wii and get nintendont emulator on it along with this game and many others on your wii
2 things. 1 I didnt know that game went for so much. I believe I still have mine, and the case for it too! 2nd, that was one of my favorite pokemon games growing up. So many memories, and getting pissy when I couldn't catch pokemans to transform em back.
The Wii with the AV problem is an issue that's popping up more and more each day. Its caused by the capacitors by the AV output. Crazy to think though that Wii's are being plagued with capacitor issues at the AV output level while Wii U's are having issues with the NAND chips corrupting themselves and leading to unbootable consoles.
I must say i do miss you fixing or opening like one of the consoles but can't wait for the EP when you open them all up! Loving seeing whats on all these consoles
When the screen is that light on a Wii that means one of the capacitors are going bad and also that way that was very dark on the screen. That's not AV cables going bad. That's the internal GPU dying
I really enjoy these types of videos from you so much. It always interesting seeing an old wii from the previous owner and what they did on it. Its so cool to watch and looking at stuff with you from back in the day. I hope you keep it up with this type of content. There also really unique as well compared to others on youtube.
4:37 The many hours we spent playing New Super Mario Bros Wii. Funny I had the same Wii U. Maybe my family gave it away, if so, nice to see it in the video
The reason so many have Wii sports is because it came in that paper case and people probably destroyed that and just left it in to keep it out of the way
In French "blond" and "blonde" are the masculine and feminine versions of the same word. I think both spellings are accepted in English and some pedantic people will insist you use the correct gendered version.
The wii at 8:09 with the black screen likely has bad capacitors and the motherboard just needs to be re-capped. The caps are on the back of the board near the rear exhaust fan. Sadly they are surface mount caps. Best way to remove those is hot air rework tools.
Those PS3 consoles get that red light when they are full of dust. Sometimes you just need to hook a little vacuum hose up to the air vents on the side of the console by the Blu-ray drive and try and turn the machine on and off a voi
Just keep hitting the power button while the vacuum is on the vent and once the machine turns on you can turn the vacuum off. You'll have to do it every time you restart the console but it may still turn on. I think The red light is just the machine going into an overheat mode
what a find! Sucks I had the case like a month ago from a storage unit, and manual for that game I would have sent it over! And that wii issue is most likely the capacitors for video!
I believe the issue with the Wii is the capacitors I can’t remember if it was by Matt KC but I’ve seen an issue similar to that but I believe it’s capacitor related. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
The Wii with the bad AV output is (from what I remember??) something that needs to be re-solded. Nothing like replacing a GPU/CPU on the 360, just a few points
I just find it amazing how many Fat PS3's don't work. When I still have my 60GB model, that's been heavily used for years, and it's still working just fine. I'm not bragging or anything, but it just surprises me.
17:00 remember it was a crime to not have a mic, and most couldnt find a party that was willing to have them without one. Save for the few patient ones who would speak and then got a reply via message. TODAY mics are built in and they pretend there is no mic.....
Clash of Ninja 2 is a certified Gamecube classic! I actually have it on my Steam Deck, don't play it much outside of a trip down nostalgia lane but man that game was my childhood.
Matt kc actually made a really good video on repairing a Wii similar to the issue you had. I’d suggest you watch it, it’s really good and kind of explains the issue!
My PS2 makes a wicked clicking sound when you first start playing that rivals that PS3. When I first heard it I thought the system turned into a bomb of some kind.
