Hello, everyone. Any help is appreciated. I am not a homebrewer, really. I just want to see if I can recover this Wii.
About ten years ago, my brother and his friend bricked their Wii. My brother told me he “turned the Wii off while updating BootMii” but admits he ultimately doesn’t remember what he did.
This is a black Wii with no GameCube controller ports. The original SD card that was used to hack this Wii has been lost, most likely wiped and repurposed for something else. I have no Wii controller and no sensor bar, as I’m trying to figure out if the Wii is reparable before buying them (my brother took most of the Wii stuff with him to college).
The state of the Wii is that I can turn it on, the power light turns green, and the disk inserter thing glows blue for a second. I can hear disk activity. But there’s no video output. Not even a black screen.
Is this Wii salvageable, or will I need to buy a new one? Thank you for reading.
