Hey everyone, first lemme say that I am new to these forums... was a fairly active member over on wiinewz... but if you saw what happened... everything was lost from their site

My problem is however... that after installing my switch... the wii will only play regular sized discs. Wen I put in a gamecube mini disc... it gets spit right back out. Gamecube backups on big discs work fine... its just these darned little discs.

Anyone know what I hit or messed up inside the wii. I'm pretty sure it's a weight or pressure sensor... any ideas where ??

Bump

Even if you DON'T know HOW to fix it, if you could let me know WHAT needs to be fixed... that would be good. I know there has to be some sort of sensor problem... so if anyone is good with the insides of a wii and knows what is responsible for the detection of a disc (size seems to be the problem in this case), POST

This can't be a problem with the switch install... otherwise... it wulda happened to others too

thats just it. The gamecube originals just get spit back out... gamecube backups on a regular sized disc work fine.

This is a blind guess, but...

The other day I dismantled my Wii, and I put it back together incorrectly - I put the white thing in the drive (that holds discs in place) in the wrong place!

That caused my Wii to spit out all discs. Maybe try dismantling and re-assembling your drive - if you're confident.

    No it's revenue and demand south park could argue has a bigger audience than family guy about the same

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Family guy is worth 300mill south parks worth 1Bill according to the interwebs
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, probably cuz family guy is more disliked compared to south park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It just does the same formula south park can press buttons without going overboard
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    And bc most of the family guy budget is spent on the voice actors rather than on the animation
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Southpark could spend 30k on a animated dick and people would laugh at it
