Wii Weirdness
Earlier today, my brother was play Smash Bros on my Wii, and it, in his words, "shorted out." When I checked it, it wouldn't turn on, and the little light on it wouldn't turn on when plugged in. I tried with multiple outlets, and checked to make sure these outlets were working with other electrical devices. That's the normal part. Things got weird when I plugged my Wii in again fifteen or so minutes later and it did turn on and everything. My concern right now is is this fine to just start playing my Wii again and all, or is this the sign of a much bigger potential problem. Any ideas on what could cause this are also welcome.

It means there was a power surge on the outlet. Either from weather, or just a short in the line. It's part of the Wii's design; it trips and powers it off until it's unplugged and plugged back in.
It's incredibly useful, and has saved my Wii's life a few times. |

You can't turn it on because it's not gay.

Well, the real issue is that its standards are too high, but I didn't want to say that out loud.

All my fetish cosplay is at the cleaners right now. That'd probably explain it.

Anyway, yeah I'm gonna second what Nikose said, this sounds like your Wii is A-OK. I would only be worried if it's a problem that start reoccuring frequently. The first commandment of troubleshooting is 'And the lord said: 'thou shalt unplug the power for at least several cubits of time before plugging it back in, so sayeth the lord' '

BELLS TO THE RESCUE!!
Maybe the Wii is overheating? It's not the first time we see this sort of thing in the forum.... check it for dust and for the fans on the back. |
