Hey guys, my Wii just started up and I was directed here to help solve my problem.
A little background: My Wii is hardmodded with a Wiikey (it's a pretty old console) and has been working fine. The last game I played was Twilight Princess (burned) about a month or so ago, maybe a little bit longer. It has sit since I finished it. A few days ago I went to play Madden '09 (also burned) and it hung on the Health and Safety screen and wouldn't give me the prompt to hit A to proceed. I did a little bit of research and so far I've tried the following:
- unplugging the mains for 15+ minutes
- resyncing the Wiimote and Wii console
- Holding + and - and press A at the Health and Safety screen doesn't bring up maintenance mode
- Holding + and - while booting does nothing
- Holding Reset while booting does nothing
- Retail SSB:Brawl doesn't load from boot or Health screen (to do a Smashstack?)
I was told this may be a banner brick, but I am 99% sure I have never run homebrew or WADs on this Wii.
Some additional information about the Wii:
- Wiikey is 1.9s I'm pretty sure
- Fairly confident I never ran HBC or anything that would run bad wads
- I had no screen come up saying the system files were corrupted
- I think the newest game I've played was Wario Land: Shake It (Which came out after Madden '09), so I'm not sure what firmware that would put me at
I hope there is something that can be done to rescue this, but as I haven't softmodded it or ran any wad's, I'm pretty sure I don't have a NAND backup :/
Please help!
