I love Wiis

Same Lol
Fun fact, only early Wii’s have support for reading DVD movies, Nintendo removed support in the hardware, so it doesn’t work on a modded system.
That's cool!
How would I test that for my Wii? I have a Wii and recently started using it again. I remember that I got it close to when it came out as a kid. If you have any knowledge on please lmk. Thanks
Mine can run DVDs
@@noahfigs6155 you can install any media player for Wii and it should let you use a DVD if it's compatible with it
@@noahfigs6155 First you would need to soft mod your Wii, and then use the application shown in this video. But, and this is a big but, it is not recommended playing DVD's on the Wii as the Wii disc drive is a bit slower than a normal DVD player, and you would stress the drive.
not calling the top of the scale "HOT GARBAGE" to go with "NOT GARBAGE" at the bottom is a missed opportunity
Can't believe it took this many episodes to find a modded Wii.
I mean to be fair, early wiis actually could read burned discs, which most likely explains why there was one inside
with a mod chip maybe.
By burned u mean scratched or like actually burned
@@social6077No mod chip is needed. Just homebrew. Mine will show up in the disc channel as an authentic game. You can also use uLoader to load burned Wii games from a USB DVD Drive.
@@YYuj-up1wy how old are you? By burned he means a writable disc with a game copied to it from a PC. A laser would "burn" the data unto the disc.
@@solidsnake2730 thanks, if someone asks something either give the info respectfully or don't.
7:55 seeing Team Umizoomi again after years is just so much nostalgia😢
Ye. Man i miss that Show.
Real
I liked this show as a child since I had watched this show for awhile and why umizoom he says it weirdly
Oma and Opa arent names. Its the german word for Grandma and Grandpa. Thats why they are back to back on the Wiis
Strange that those happened to be on back to back Wiis 😂
@@jrob0021they bought two wiis lol
it can also be Dutch maybe that explains the pal signal
And Dutch
Oma is also another name for Sasquatch.
I remember before you could play wii games off of usbs you had to play off burned dvds, such a throwback.
I actually installed a chip in mine that bypassed the copyright chip in it. It allowed any burned disc to be played. It wasn't too difficult to install either.
I love you sharing these consoles with us! So fun seeing the games and stuff and how long since they were played, plus I appreciate the heads ups on crappy retro sellers. Thanks bro.
The flashing screen likely stopped as soon as the capacitor “reformed” and was able to be capacitive again. This can happen when electronics hasn’t seen any voltage for years.
This stuff warms my heart. I still have my Wii and will never part with it. Me and my sister have all sorts of weird Miis and save data on there. This made me want to hook mine up again. So many hours of fun happened on that thing and the whole vibe of the menu and the look of it is so nostalgic. Easily one of the greatest game consoles ever.
Awesome video and thanks for sharing and uploading this one too! The Wii is also one of my most favorite Nintendo game consoles ever!
I know this happened before, but for when the play time for a game says over 24 hours, I think what happens is that the Wii logs the play time when you leave the game. I was thinking maybe someone maybe accidentally left it on for over a day.
can confirm, it was pretty normal for when I had friends over growing up to just put it on YT or Netflix and use it for the whole day and night until either my parents turned it off or one of us did if we woke up early enough. My childhood wii was subject to so many lunchtime with Smosh videos and Ian Is Bored videos throughout the night.
Yeah it’s just always hilarious to see more than 24 hours in 1 day
So weird, my brother is Stephen and his wife is Chloe. It looks like them and they did sell most of their video game consoles recently. If the red shirt mii is Jake then that's probably his wii.
I think this is the closest we’ve seen to someone knowing one of the consoles! That’s pretty neat!
They live in texas? This lot of consoles shipped from a goodwill in texas
Are you Jake lmfao
Jake from State Farm?
buy it lmao
why are these videos so satisfying? its kinda hard to explain but i love them
Yeah. My modded Wii was an early model firmware 4.2. Still have it. It can play DVDs but I didn't want to use it much to wear out the laser.
I really enjoy seeing the users and dates on the Wiis, it really makes me think what the story was behind the Wii and the people that used it
Dude, I love your videos!!!! PLEASE KEEP SHOWING THE LAST PLAY DATE, AND LAST LOGIN ETC
I am obsessed with Dates! 😂❤
"because of this little boger, it a 7/10" amen brother
Edit: I told my bestie you hearted my comment and she said "his PFP looks like Bob Ross" LOL
"a lot of people pulled out their Wii in 2020 when they were stuck at home" sounds so weird out of context.
dad was goated in mario cart
Real
frfr
I scrolled down to give you a Like like I always do and i'm like wait... I'm not subscribed?? lol I am now! Keep it up Jacob! You the man
I still have a working Wii console so far which is over 15 years old now already even though it still works fine and everything for the time being, and my Wii that I have is also one of the backwards compatible models too since it can play GameCube games which is really sweet.
21:20 this seems like something someone would have left as a memo after spending the day with a date.
That Mona Lisa was hilarious
I think those Trent’s MAY be Trent Reznor, the main vocals of Nine Inch Nails haha
Funny I should see a comment mentioning NIN when I actually got into them pretty recently from my Mom
@@Symmetry_Obsessed_Freak I got into them when I was around 12 or so 🥲 greatest hits
the way he pronounced team umizoomi tho 💀
In some modded wii's you should try to press the power and reset bottons at the same time, to access the priiloader menu, its a faster way to access some features on the console
Nice. After a lot of Wii, you reveived one with homebrew.
Obviously Batman likes fishing cause there’s only one person that would call their Wii “Justice”
Awesome a new video Jacob 😁 Keep up the awesome (Wii) videos😁
Bro hasn’t even watched it 😂
@@ben-sm1xo I know but i said im excited bc i got a notification that he uploaded a new video so i said Awesome video, learn how to read and spell kid
Thanks Jake, your videos are always entertaining
Funny thing about the video's thumbnail implying that a modded Wii is somehow illegal. lol
Modding it and playing things on it isn't in any way shape or form illegal. Never has been. It IS illegal to play pirated games. But on that same note? It is NOT illegal to play backups OR downloads of games you own, which is helpful to those hardcore collectors since this fact works out for ANY system.
This has been a basic fact in emulation for damned near 30 years now despite Nintendo trying to say otherwise. lol
Actually you're wrong. Modding a Wii IS actually illegal. You are confusing this with the basic concept of emulation itself which is not illegal, but yes, modding, jailbreaking or any other way of modding a video game system IS actually both illegal and a direct violation of the console's terms of service that YOU agree to when purchasing one. You seem to have gotten your facts mixed up. Modding consoles in itself is illegal. And specifically what he's also talking about in the video... it is HIGHLY illegal to SELL one. Which is what any used game store would be in direct violation for when selling this used console. So, the video is correct and you are not.
If the Wii consoles are having video issues, try cleaning the A/V port with rubbing alcohol and q-tips before investigating the bad capacitors.
Great upload man!
I did a dumpster dive in 2021 at a local GameStop and found 22 Wii's and 4 WiiU's. All of which worked and passed recert just fine. They were in great shape. Just tossed. They quickly became junk consoles about a year after release.
Hearing you’ve never heard of team umizoomi feels like a crime
He mentioned his age on the video. He was 15-20 years old when it aired. People who are in their late 20s or early 30s didn't watch it lmao. I remember seeing the name on a tv guide, but that's it.
I only know from books at the library I work at
@@AfterBurnerTeirusu Most people under 20 done even no clue what tv guide is. haha
I love the gamer garbage series keep it up ❤
i think a lot of the wii's ended up being netflix machines because it was something a lot of people had and it was when netflix started going more digital instead of getting dvd's in the mail and having a netflix channel just fit right in.
Consoles if they see a tiny scratch in a disc
Ps3: it's fine.
Ps1: Looks Okay.
Wii: YOU MESSED UP BIG TIME, MATE...
Imagine discovering you have a stalker just by viewing a bunch of mii's lol
Is it just me or does everyone like hearing the voice go “GAMER GARBAGE”
my high guess is in 5:20, the Wii is set to EDTV/HDTV 480p which results not getting signal when plugging in Composite Cables instead of Component Cables. It also might be a Wifi or Bluetooth brick.
I love these so much. It's like coming across a lost civilization - I hope someone can understand what I'm trying to say. I can't explain myself very well.
Bro i don’t know how you do it. I’d be so terrified of getting Bedbugs or something.
Yes and even some original Xboxes have this problem it goes away after the console starts to warm up
Had my Wii modded like that one, it was really easy to do so with certain games + payloads on the sd card.
Older Wii’s can be modded to play burned games both Wii and GameCube as well as DVD movies.
Newer models will need an external DVD drive to play burned Wii and DVD movies. GameCube support was never added for external DVD drives.
The screen output with the brightened screen was an issue with my Wii, and was fixed by changing one of the settings.
I have a whole city of Mii characters on my old Wii. I still have it. I'm now scared to boot it, I made so many and I think if I check on them they'll be mad.
Ra-pa-la! Haha... i had the fishing rod attachment for that game
3 vids one week is crazy
Do you factory reset the modded wiis or leave them as is?
The First Wii You Pulled Out Looks Like My Wii.
Hmm, that looks suspiciously like 760 Snes roms.
Was not prepared for the Miina Lisa
Just so you know, Oma and Opa stand for grandfather and grandmother.
Everyone used burned games with a homebrew channeled wii. I have like 20 burned games still. We used twilight princess to install the homebrew.
Will you make a video about fixing the 1-2 Wiis that came faulty?
Yo Who likes Wii
I Do for Mario kart Wii
Wow that phone number really works on one of those screens...........
Awesome video!
Tbh it's one of my favs
in my wii i remeber i did like mesi, neymar, suarez, ter stegen and a few other barcelona players. good times
i love your wii videos soo much
That modded Wii looked super cool, I would have certainly bought that myself if possible because why not :)
Modding my wii was one of the easiest software hacks ive ever done. definitely recommend doing it if you have a wii and an sd card laying around
love your vids! can you do a modding tutoiral for a wii?
I've never personally modded a wii, and even if I had, there's 0% chance I post a video showing how to mod a nintendo console lol
@@jrob0021
Wii’s are literally the beginner homebrew device in terms of difficulty to mod. If you google it it’s not hard at all
You wanna know how durable a wii is I bought 6 at once switch parts around to make 5 working perfect 6th one I threw into a highway divider and it barely put a dent in it after 5 throws little to no damage
I have that Monster High game and my sister absolutely loves it so much ❤
The Jacob R with his glasses is so cool 😮😅
I use glasses too!
This bro has never seen team umizoomi
It would be cool if you dug into the system saves
I'm surprised my parents are still keeping the family Wii we have, we haven't played the Wii together in like 2 years.
keep it forever
@jrob0021 yea I will, once they give up on it.
@@DaBloxxer420 my brother nodded my wii, and I'm keeping it.
Most durable console I ever had was my ps2, we used it to prop up a broken futon frame and put like 600lbs on top of it and it still works 20+ years later
What 😂😂
@@jrob0021 we stood it upright and used it to support the broken frame 🤣 i threw it in a box and pulled it out last year and fired up some LOTR: Return of the King and it worked perfect. It might be...slightly cosmetically flawed though 😆
Bro used a PS2 as a support beam
@@776footballyou definitely shouln't do this and that with a slim though
@@776footballyou definitely shouln't do this and that with a slim though
I remember making a fool out of myself playing Punch Out at Best Buy. It seems like you can slam a Series s against anything and it would survive.
One of my Wiis was actually played yesterday. I usually use WIIU but we also play WII
oma and opa could possibly be mom and dad in another language.
I thank you for making this channel you are a cool person 😎
oma and opa are the dutch terms for grandpa and grandma. might be the reason it showed up on 2 of the wiis
Can ps3 videos will come ?
I got tried from wiis lol
Btw I love your connect haha
How are you weirded out about burning games,, but are ok with emulators ir roms?
7:51 it’s Team UmiZoomi not umizoom 😅
Oma = grandma and Opa = grandpa in dutch. Thats maybe why multiple wiis have miis with those names 😊
It's funny that somehow I got those on back to back Wiis 🤔
@@jrob0021 yeaa true, maybe a batch of dutch wiis idk
That Team Umizoomi DVD was based off of a Nick Jr/Noggin Show by the way.
Also I bet you anything that the person who made all of those Kara Miis was either a 6 year old or a troll.
20:06 also what did they do to this thing🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cara had dementia
amazing mii find
Do a video about the DS ML on Aliexpress.
my wii's cpu melted in feb of 2022
Were you talking about the Rabbids? There are various games for the Wii, Wii U, and the Switch as well as a Mario version.
I got a dk oldies ad while watching this
XD
7:49 I remember watching this show😔
2:12 LOL
Man called Umizoomi Unizoom xD
LOL
that show was my childhood man
@@SkySerceomg same
@@SkySerce BRO SAME!
1:20 James has no time
14:15 opa and oma is actually grandma and grandpa in dutch if you are wondering
Can GAME CUBE controllers play WII games our sensor bar got chewed up by a hungry cat. On regular Controllers it seems to go where the nunchuk goes. Don't want to spend money until necessary. Also buttons on both I know looks different do they have L1,L2,R1,R2, is there 1 or 2 analogs. Last does any controller work with USB like an XBOX 360?
I think you should include Cords with the consoles Like the Xbox 360I just think you should Include For the console that you sell
R.I.P Netflix on Wii
2010-2020
@JacobR how much for decent wii that has dl games
So the Wii that shouldn't have been sold was the modded one? Nothing wrong with modding your Wii as long as you're not getting rid of it. Only then should you reset it to factory settings.
Also, I could never get the Homebrew Channel to play DVDs.
No don't reset it, it sells for more modded
Actually modding consoles is illegal, as it directly violates Nintendo's terms of service and warranty. Just because they're likely 99% not ever going to convict you over it doesn't mean that it isn't in some way, a small crime, legally speaking. Modding and jailbreaking consoles is not legal. You're confusing this with the basic concept of emulation.
its probably illegal because it was packed with like 100 roms of snes and nes games
@@teruienages962 no it isn't. you're confusing legal with tos. you can mod and homebrew your consoles all you want, but nintendo has the right to ban your hardware from their services. the illegal part is when you're using said modded console to pirate the software sold for it.
