Why won't my WII work any more?

Question

It was working just fine. Then, we had a power outage. All the stuff in the house went out. Then it all came back on. Except the WII.

No power. No connection to the TV. I don't know how to fix it. Anyone know?

Answer 1

As Inuyasha said, just tell them something like it just stopped working, don't mention the power surge. You might be able to pull it off ;)

Plus even if you send it it, there's a better chance that they wont find out and send you a new Wii Vs. them finding out about the power surge because they can't just tell you a power surge happened because the're no proof!!!

Answer 2

This has happened to me before more than once just unplug the Wii for just a little bit like about 10 min or more if you want then just plug it back in and should work like fine again, if not then ehh you need a new one or get it for repairs

Answer 3

Try turning on the wii from the button on the wii itself and not the controller. If that doesn't work then you are out of luck (and $250)

Answer 4

its just like during a thunder storm and you leave the computer on...it will mess it up

Answer 5

The power surge may have messed up the Wii. If you have an extended warrenty I would take it in to get looked at.  Otherwise I think your outta luck b/c power surges arent covered in the regular Nintendo Warrenty.

Answer 6

Sounds like it got struck by lightening, if u have a warrenty i would call up the compy that makes Wii and be like it stoped working, then u will have to mail yours in and then they will give you a new one if you talk to them just right, i would say "it stoped working in the midle of playing a game" just make sure you dont tell them it was storming out o.o
