Hi, I used haxchi and cbhc, and everything was going right. I installed kind of 30 games, dindnt install ds virtual consoles or messed with important files, nor messed with haxchi. I was playing Super Mario 3D world with the gamepad, and tried to pair a pirate wiimote to play with my friend. the control wasnt pairing, so I went angry and broke the pirate wiimote. before this, I was trying so many times to pair the wiimote, and sometimes it was asking to pair the gamepad. So, I continued playing for about 20 minutes, and I powered off the console. This happened yesterday. Today, when I was trying to power on the wii u, I received the message ~could not connect to the wii u console~, and on my tv appears ~no signal~. I tried removing the battery of the console, but nothing happened. The blue light is keeping on, and I am hearing a noise from the disc unit, but my external usb hd doesnt power up too. Can someone suggest me a solution? Could this be a power shortage by the ac adapter? Also, I am from Brazil, so no chance to send it to Nintendo. Thanks.

It's not bricked. If you unplug the USB and boot what do you see? Wii U system menu or something else?

Unplug your Wii U for 5 minutes then plug it back.
Should forget last settings and boot directly to Wii U menu.
(If it asks you to pair it, pair it. Wii U is dumb and needs help)

Wait, you didn't pull out battery from Wii U itself? Jesus christ, people don't do it :d
You can pull out from Gamepad but not from Wii U itself. Implying if it even has one.

Tried, nothing happens, only the blue Led stay steady on, but no image. I AM thinking about a power shortage in the AC adapter.

Already tried this. Nothing happens. Thinking about a AC adapter malfunction.

I am talking about that side battery with a screw. Also, saw a guy in YouTube doing this and reviving his console. Obviously, not my case.

In this vídeo on YouTube happened the same as happened to me. Note the Led stay blue, not blinking. I AM quite convinced it could be the adapter. Or do you think it is dead forever.

Well, Just a little fun update. I'm LOLing so much. I was quite convinced that my Wii U was dead, and I did let it on my shelf. I bought another unit, this time the BASIC Edition, firm 5.5.1. I was going to break my "bricked" Wii U. Today, I thought, why don't I try testing it again before my hammer start singing? And Booooom, the Wii U started. Now I have 2 units completely operational, one basic in its original form, and one hacked deluxe. Hahahhahahahahah.
