Wii connection

#1 Post by ligloo » Mon Feb 16, 2009 7:53 pm

Kiddo was playing it on her tv and I've just tried to connect it to our main tv now, which it never has been before .... it connects ok and the menu comes up but the cursor wont show! We've changed the batteries in both remotes and double checked the connections but nothing :smt012

I've pressed the red button inside the battery compartments of the remote and on the wii and still nothing...

anyone else know how to configure it or is the sensor just kaput?

adjust the angle of the sensor.. try standing back.. standing closer..

stand on one leg, dont forget to make cuckoo noises at the same time.

Ask kiddo to take video and post it to youtube

the sensor does sound fekked, but remember it doesnt have a very wide catch really. it may just be out of alignment and the handset is missing it

:smt016 I was being helpful, if the Wii isnt working you need summat else to keep kiddo busy and amused.

Think outside the box ligs.. :smt002 I WAS being helpful!!


Lemme check ours... brb

*edit*

checked ours and cant see anything on the back you may've missed. I can only suggest rechecking the connections, batteries are in the right way round (no, really..), etc

nice to see that hangman has replaced RTFM these days....


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...
