Hey!

I run my Wii with USB Loader GX and use Wii2HDMI to output to my TV. This has worked for over 6 months but when I tried to run my Wii the other day it seems to be having issues outputting a picture. I tried different HDMI cords and am confident it has nothing to do with that. See below for what it looks like when I try to turn my Wii on:

Here's where things get funky. When powered on my Wii keeps the blue light around the disc drive on (see below). I can still insert and eject discs but that's about it.

Of course, I fear that my Wii is bricked. Any guidance to troubleshoot or diagnose would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

  • A @ anotherthing:
    I can at least watch the Retro Future guy's videos. Don't know who the other one is.
  • A @ anotherthing:
    Didn't Nintendo go after Retro Future recently for something?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All porn videos are clickbait
  • kijetesantakalu042 @ kijetesantakalu042:
    @anotherthing pojr is a youtuber who makes videos about atari and sega mainly. they feel low effort and he always ends them by doing a creepy smile
  • A @ anotherthing:
    I just searched for him, and I don't think I've ever seen anything of his. I'm surprised nothing of his has popped up in my feed considering I've been sorting ROM files a LOT lately and just sorted Atari 8bit computer images.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Anything on YouTube is shit anymore
  • kijetesantakalu042 @ kijetesantakalu042:
    His stuff used to be good but lately he feels like a content farm
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All the decent ones upload like once a week
  • kijetesantakalu042 @ kijetesantakalu042:
    @K3Nv2 nile red posts twice a year and he is really good'
  • A @ anotherthing:
    I can't stand that MandJTV guy.
  • kijetesantakalu042 @ kijetesantakalu042:
    creators which post once per week usual prefer quantity over quality
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's because they made their money from it and don't really have to grind like early days
  • A @ anotherthing:
    He does almost exclusively Pokemon videos, but he's just plain annoying.

    It's kind of interesting categorizing games on platforms and how things changed over time. Very few RPGs on the Atari 8bit, and very few platformers that have any sort of "offense" for the player.
  • A @ anotherthing:
    The Genesis has quite a few RPGs, and good luck finding a platformer game that isn't a metrovania.
  • A @ anotherthing:
    The notable exception being Sonic, naturally.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kind of looking forward to Jim Carrey acting in the movie again

    @kijetesantakalu042, pojr is usually hit or miss

    @kijetesantakalu042, I recall his video about a genesis music making program derailing into the gameplay of the games that used it
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @anotherthing, Hey! Any favourite Genesis platformers? Mine's gotta be Kid Chameleon.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @K3Nv2, Yeah, YouTube is shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @kijetesantakalu042, Nile Red seems to always start his videos with "Okay, so today" and "A few days ago". It gets pretty annoying when he re-uses the same sentences but tweaks it a little bit to make it in line with the topic.
