Why Wii Brick is not a Big Deal (read info for update)

[Sonicadvaned09]

if it's full it's a big, big deal

[SuperNickid]

When my wii lose connection with my usb connecter creating the wi-fi bluff glitch by accident rather I wait for the error code or log off the nintendo browser my wii system always brick on, and I only have to unplug the wii console power supply and plug it back in to unbrick a brick on wii. I do not use hack, because i do not want to risk having my wii fully bricked. Do you know why my wii brick on?

[5000abcz]

"Not a big deal"

It's a huge deal for me since i have no internet on my wii.

[coolaidkiller101]

yeah but this isnt a brick with a sfull system menu brick power on...black screen

[MarioSegaFreak]

youre lucky. most people get a black screen on startup.

to fix, press all 4 d-pad buttons on a GC controller

[MarioSegaFreak]

lol

you have bootmii

[Raul250250]

ITS NOT A BIG DEAL FOR YOU BECAUSE THATS ISNT A TOTAL BRICK THATS A SEMIBRICK...

[CarlosIsDown]

Depends what kind of brick (from what I've read). The hard brick there's no turning back.

[EBbugattiveyron101]

I know I hate people that go nutz over a bricked wii! it can be easily fixed!

[Flannymcgee]

thats not even a complete brick. a brick means it's absolutely useless and you cant do anything to fix save either sending it to nintendo to get it repaired or finding some software on the net that will unbrick it (of which currently, i dont think there is any. correct me if im wrong).

[MasterVideos123]

@Flannymcgee Yes there is,Bootmii,do a NAND backup and wala!!!!,Unbricked!

[darkstylezvideo]

that's barely a brick, u think its not a big deal? lets see what happens when ur wii won't boot up at all and u make a youtube video bout that and we see u crying like a bitch because it won't boot up at all and stay's black.

I ALREADY HAVE 4.2 and mine says i have to update to play my new game and it "may detect and remove unauthorized content causing immediate or delayed inoperability of your console". does that mean it will brake if i update it? HELP PLEASE!!!

[CodyMusicNL]

What is a brick..

[21MegaYoshi]

where the wii doesn't load the home menu, so you can't do anything

[LozerClub]

@CodyMusicNL I ALREADY HAVE 4.2 and mine says i have to update to play my new game and it "may detect and remove unauthorized content causing immediate or delayed inoperability of your console". does that mean it will brick if i update it? HELP PLEASE!!!

[NeoPhite140]

Umm.... this isn't a wii brick a wii brick is when the wii refuses to laod the home menu. It encounters an error that has virtually no way to get around. There is a way to avoid it if your wii isn't bricked yet, and that called boot mii

[TFKTE]

ok mate figued out as long you havent installed and bad wads (wads that have essed up the wii) and you remove hombrew from your system youl be fine to update through nintendo its a little more fatal if you update through a game

[gameby420]

this is not a total brick smart guy, a real brick your wii will not even load system menu.

[LozerClub]

@gameby420 @CodyMusicNL I ALREADY HAVE 4.2 and mine says i have to update to play my new game and it "may detect and remove unauthorized content causing immediate or delayed inoperability of your console". does that mean it will brick if i update it? HELP PLEASE!!!

[gameby420]

@LozerClub it will delete homebrew channel

just run the games gecko OS

[LozerClub]

thanks it worked ^_^

[shinysnorlax1997]

@gameby420 actually i still had my homebrew channnel but installed cIOS 2 moths ago but i have a modded wii

[adamdonovan88]

That's pretty much what that means.

Who knows, you my get lucky

[sephiroth631]

Indeed, this is only a semi-brick. Too bad for you it means you can't install Homebrew or BootMii.

[pakiidot5]

Hi Can you help me my wii is japanese and I don't know why but I can't access the wii menu as in the settings and stuff instead a white page opens and says check ur network connection or go to opera help.

[TFKTE]

semi brick exsist as u update ur wii from a diffrent region like a japnese update to a pal wii means semi brick but easy to get rid of cos u can just wait for another update from another game and just make shure its from the same region fully bricked is much worse those are usaly caused by wads like hombrew stuff which realy is a softmod and if uv installed a softmod like hombrew but want to update ur gona need to format ur wii but doing so delets every thing

[pkurm0m02]

hey, if i got hombrew channel, and want to update to a new firmware, can i do it normal through nintendo? or ti may brick my wii....or do i format my wii? please i need that info. I wana know what to do when i get a new update to play games, wii is my only console :(

[Sschulzey]

this is only a semi brick, i bricked mine like this changing the region on my wii and fixed by changing it back.

[ViraIVideos]

lol kingdom hearts is playing in the back ground, music wise.

That's funny because kingdom hearts is a PS3 exclusive lol :D

[FrenzyBanana]

are you effing serious? kingdom hearts is a PS2 and Gameboy Game.

[ravecrocker]

you can play the game boy on the wii :P

[5olidsn4ke]

@ViraIVideos wtf

[mounir314]

@ViraIVideos lol your a fucking idiot there isnt any kingdom hearts game on ps3 only on ps2

[ViraIVideos]

@mounir314 wow....

I meant when it comes out, it'll be on PS3 only... geeze. That's already been anounced.

KH has always been exlusive.

[mounir314]

@ViraIVideos ow im sorry i read it wrong and if it only comes to ps3 than i will be mad cuz i dont own one and are you sure cuz there are alot of kingdom hearts games on Nintendo consoles

[DJscratchnsniff91111]

im download a iso of wii dead rising andi got wiiur and iso patch will my wii brick??

[puggster]

shulda softmodded your wii

its better than a chiped wii and you can prevent bricks and skip updates and run any region game without risk even if update remains on disk it wont run it :D

soft mod is the best way ild say

[therealmetroidmaniac]

actually just ios 30 for 3.0 to 3.3 and ios 50 for 3.4

[Kouga17san]

It's not a brick, it's a semi-brick.

[Phredreeke]

Risking to brick your Wii is stupid. Just patch out the system menu updates from the games (so it installs the needed IOS file for SMG, but don't touch the system menu)

[james98214]

do you know that might fully brick your wii

[LukerosGabriel]

that's not bricked, that's semi bricked, course it's not a problem, unless you want to go under settings

[arty153]

lol, brick sucks, and your wii was fucked by it... if you change your internet config u cant acess internet anymore with the wii, because you cant use the options u.u

[thomasjeeh]

Dude, you know it CAN go wrong worse then that. It's possible if you'll update it again with another region game that you'll get that screen when you boot your Wii

[madferret19]

If my wii is bricked, can i still use twilight hack?

[masterkill107]

yes but its a great risk to your wii.

[Darkwarrior999]

ok big question how does this show its not a big deal i dont get it you have a bricked wii how do you fix it i dont think you can and you didnt show how to in the video so i still think yes its a big deal

[pokemaol]

YA what about internet

[Wukiee]

that`s luck.

my wii is now an expensive toilet paper holder

[AROAH1337]

How did you fit a roll of toilet paper around it?

[coulditbekronau]

Win

[Mari0445]

the end of it is truly touching *sniff sniff*

[Stalkingtigeruk]

dude download wii fit (jap) to sort your semi-brick problem out

[faizalzulfikar]

[traceless15]

Your Wii's not bricked. Its semi-bricked.

[FrenzyBanana]

really? so how can i brick my wii?

[Shorty1038]

bricking your wii makes it completly useles.

[FrenzyBanana]

yeah i know that. its just that i want to try it.

[LordQuex]

Its easy.

Play the new resident evil for wii.

Your wii will never leave the opera screen again once you use it. Hence the "brick term", its as useful as a brick.

[nederninja]

did u try it yet?

[masterkill107]

modchips and pirated games will brick it.

[incraas]

Wrong answer.

Software hacks and lack of general knowledge brick Wiis.

[gogetosaiyan]

hey so my wiis semi bricked too? i cant seem to get on the settings also. and if i update my wii, will it super brick?
