Is it possibile to completely replace the shell? I have a broken console but would like to keep the shell because it's well kept and with very few scratches.
@@MattPassarelli I got one and ir seems that the previous owner didn't knew how to clean it, am gonna give a try using your video as a reference, wish me luck.
So I followed your video and the ifixit guide and now my wiiU won’t power up. Any suggestions? Honestly, from my research, think I bricked it but I wouldn’t know how that happened
@@MattPassarelli nope the game pad powers up to the quick menu but the console does nothing. I’ve taken it back apart and put it back together three times now looking for a connector I may have missed
The CMOS? No, you shouldn’t. The Wii U (for lack of batter terms) pretty standard solid state memory; I think eMMC. You’ll probably lost date and time settings, but no actual memory or save data.
I appreciate the color commentary provided by the cat.
for the tri wing screws I used a flat head that fit well enough. Just in case other people feel stuck
Come for the cleaning tutorial, stay for Gamercat!
very good,I like nintendo Wii U and cat
Ah right after all that hard work let’s put it right on the carpet and let wiskers start licking the fan
Hey now, whiskers was just helping with the final cleaning of it.
Now this is content i like
Yeah
Thanks, I was gonna buy a second hand one
Nice video! I’m just gonna clean the top after removing the case!
I just bought that same toolkit to refurbish my PS3. Planning to refurbish my Wii U next!
7:44 what was that little piece that came off?
One of the rubber feet on the bottom. They're just clamped in between the plastic halves
I’m doing the same exact thing right now with the same kit lol
Can the cat just stay away from the vintage console💀💀
Bro it's 10 yrs old not that vintage

Where can I find replacement Wii U shells?
What tool kit is that? Trying to find one with the proper tri wing but all I see are for the switch which are about half the size.
I use an iFixIt Mako kit for everything. There should be a link in the descriptions of my videos
The hell it took almost forever to open it

@@HOIExotics have you hooked it up to a tv?
What was the cleaning liquid you used towards the end of the video?
Everything I’ve cleaned with is Rubbing/Isopropyl Alcohol!
Amazing 👍
So for that battery in the beginning of the video how do u know if its good or not
Wheb it stops working lol
How much would you sell if you still have it?
If you remove the cmos battery do you lose data? Is it safe to remove?
