Author Topic: Why is my Nintendo Wii being loving handicapped right now (Read 1714 times)

I bought my Nintendo Wii console nearly 5 years ago in November of 2013. Recently, I tried to play Godzilla: Unleashed on the Wii, but whenever I actually got into a match, it said that my Nunchuk needed to be connected, even though it was. My Wii remote also had fresh batteries put into it just before playing. I looked up some answers online, and one of them said to take out the batteries, wait for 1 minute, then put them back in. For some weird reason, the match started up, but my monster kept moving forward by itself without me touching the brown townog of the Nunchuk. It was then stuck like that, so I had to restart. When I restarted the Wii and got back into another match, I ran into the Nunchuk not connected bullstuff again. So then I tried to clear the syncs out of my Wii Remote, and re-synced the Remote with the Wii, and restarted the console. Then, I realized that my cursor was literally not even appearing on the screen, even though it was working perfectly fine before I cleared the syncs and re-synced. I tried more solutions, but none of them had any success. So then I just said "forget it" and basically just turned my console off. I didn't touch it for another 2 days. When I tried to fix my Wii again, the cursor was suddenly back again, like nothing ever happened. I then tried to get back into a match on Godzilla: Unleashed, hoping that the Nunchuk error would also somehow be resolved. But guess what? Still not working. So then I tried to re-sync again, hoping that it would really work this time, and guess what? Yup, cursor gone again! My sensor bar is working, by the way, and I own 2 wii remotes (both with nunchuks). None of the Wii Remotes will actually work properly with me. I also tried to switch Nunchuks, but that also was met with little success. There's also nothing obscuring my sensor bar, and no interfering light sources were in my room. I also had problems like this in the past, back in 2016, I tried to play Godzilla: Unleashed, and it did work for a little while, but midway into a fight, the controllers all of a sudden stopped responding. I then had to restart my Wii, and, though I can't really recall, but I don't think the cursor re-appeared after I restarted. It also happens multiple times whenever I try to play the Wii, keep running into constant errors and stuff like that. I don't even think a normal Wii is supposed to run into this many errors, and that's sad, because I really want to play Godzilla: Unleashed on the Wii, since it has more monsters and features on it than the PS2, however, the game only allows the Wii Remote and Nunchuks to be used, no Gamecube Controllers or anything easy like that. Why do you think my Wii is behaving so loving weird like this?

Wii gameplay with the Wii Remote can involve rapid or vigorous motion. Please use the wrist strap to prevent losing your grip on the remote and causing damage to the remote or surrounding objects, or injury to other people. � Make sure all players use the wrist strap and that the strap lock is correctly tightened. � When sharing the Wii Remote between multiple players, make sure each person uses the wrist strap properly. � Wearing the wrist strap will prevent you from accidentally dropping or throwing the remote during gameplay, which could damage the remote or surrounding objects, or cause injury to other people. � Read the Instruction booklet for the game you are playing and follow all game control instructions for correct use of the Wii Remote or accessory controllers. � Hold the remote securely and avoid excessive motion, as it may cause you to let go of the remote and may break the wrist strap. � If your hands become moist, stop and dry your hands. Allow adequate room around you as you play. � Stay at least three (3) feet away from the television. � As you may move around during gameplay, make sure objects and other people are out of your range of movement or arm motion to prevent damage or injury. Wearing the Wii Remote Wrist Strap:

Place your hand through the wrist strap and hold the remote firmly in your hand.

Slide the strap lock up so that the strap will not fall off your wrist. Do not over tighten the strap lock so that it�s uncomfortable. It should just be tight enough to hold the wrist strap in place.

My problem literally has nothing to do with the wrist-strap.
It's more about how my forgeted up remote's cursor won't appear on screen and the nunchuks not connecting bullstuff.

Make sure you follow your safety instructions booklet before you try to handle your Wii Controller or Nunchuck.

FYI, I was safely using my Wii Remote all this time I've been playing with it.

Literally experienced none of these when I played (except for my arms getting a tired after a while).

Leakage of battery fluid can cause personal injury as well as damage to your remote. If battery leakage occurs, thoroughly wash the affected skin and clothes. Keep battery fluid away from your eyes and mouth. Leaking batteries may make popping sounds.

To avoid battery leakage:

Do not mix used and new batteries (replace all batteries at the same time).
Do not mix different brands of batteries.
Nintendo recommends alkaline batteries. Do not use Lithium ion, nickel cadmium (nicad), or carbon zinc batteries.
Do not leave batteries in the remote for long periods of non-use.
Do not recharge alkaline or non-rechargeable batteries.
Do not put the batteries in backwards. Make sure that the positive (+) and negative (-) ends are facing in the correct directions. Insert the negative end first. When removing batteries, remove the positive end first.
Do not use damaged, deformed or leaking batteries.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
