    Hacking Wii component output color shift due to rising GPU temperature

    A happy update, it turns out to be the cable! I bite the bullet and ordered an official Nintendo RVL-011 component cable from ebay. It fixed the problem!! I tried it on both of my Wii and no color change after a 40 minutes of Super Smash Bro session. Looking at the connector, the Monoprice ones...

    Hacking Wii component output color shift due to rising GPU temperature

    Ok, so I’ve been battling this component video output problem for a while now, and I think I finally narrowed it down to the GPU being over heated. This is probably a design flaw in the Wii’s cooling system, or a design flaw in the GPU itself in how it operates in elevated temperature. The...
