no that doesnt sound normal
no it dosent
this means your wii has activated a self destruct sequence
The disc drive has been bent from too much usage
1st: no its not normal
2nd: punching your wii will make everything worse so stop doing it
3rd:spamming buttons is same as 2nd thing
You can use USB Loader GX
yes
but how do i fix the drive
DIY moment
I wouldn't bother fixing the drive when you can just use USB Loader GX. If you wish to try to fix the drive, ifixit is a trusted source. https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Nintendo+Wii+DVD+Drive+Replacement/5164

yes
is it better to buy a wii disk drive separtly or buy a used wii
Depends on who you buy it from.
It's going to be really cheap at a thrift store or garage sale but will cost way more online.
since there is no garage sales or thrif tstroes near me ill just buy a new wii from somewere
no not new i mean used
I would still recommend using USB Loader GX but you do you I guess.
i dont know how to use usb loader gx
and i have a very small usb
i forgot how many gigs but i used it for riiconnect
that'll work as long as it's not a stick
usb sticks do not work very well
why not
idk
they corrupt easily
If you use a dump that's yours
how do i use my own dump
its not piracy if i own the game
is it
you get it from cleanrip
are the game big
if it's wii, it's around 4 gigs, the first wii sports is 4.6 gigs
its legal as long as i own the game?
if you get it from cleanrip, it is not from piracy because you are extracting data from something that belongs to you
you do need a disc drive, that's why cleanrip is legal per your concern
ok
can i use a usb drive with stuff on it
///////////.or do ineed wipe it..///
///////////
🎱 Better not tell you now
Uh oh! I ran into an error while running this command. Please report the content of the attached file at the following link or on the esmBot Support server: https://github.com/esmBot/esmBot/issues
how about no
your disk drive is damaged
you have to format it to FAT32, but you can take your stuff off and put it back on after the format
@thick shadow my swii is also getting very hot even if its on for a few seconds and when i take a disk it it is also hot is that a concern
hes on vacation
ok
i figure out that he is with a mod for idk how but let's continue to call this a "vacancion"
I heard that hes on vacation
because i said that
in a xbox vacation i didnt specify
If I can be of any help I'd like to add to here. So yes part of the disc drive is bent but it's not broken. You can look at how this guy here does it and slowly bends it back to fix the noise at 8:30 https://youtu.be/XhvQu-01xVI
I bought this Nintendo Wii as part of a bigger lot 10 Wii's for $50 to restore and repair them. It's however not working. It turns on but nothing shows up on the screen and the disc drive makes a horrible noise.
First I disassembled the console. I found the Wii had taken some sort of a hit and the leg of the disc drive had broken. I also found ...
You also do want to use usbloadergx anyway because if you don't use a crt there's this thing on by default you can't turn off without it called a deflicker that makes a blurry filter on games. Only game I know you can turn this off in settings is smash bros brawl
Also you probably just need to dust your wii
huh...?
oh my bad 🤯
