I am having a problem with my Wii displaying anything at all....

It was working fine a couple weeks ago when I last played it. It is hooked up to my Plasma through regular RED. WHITE, YELLOW A/V cable...Yesterday I tried to boot it up, it comes on fine, I hear the disc spinning, but nothing comes up on the screen. Anybody know what it could be?

My first thought is that it is the cable...but if that's the case WTF...that is one cheap a$$ cable...

On the other hand, I hope it's not some kind of update from Nintendo that it does by itself that messed it up.

At this point I am about to just buy another cable, but wanted to get some feedback from anybody on here if they have the same issue.

I am going to try it on another TV, but as I said it was working fine a couple weeks ago, nothing was moved, so I don't know what happened.

Has anyone else come to the realization that we are almost in May and stores in the US still have no/little inventory of Nintendo's Wii? The demand for this system is mind blowing.

But aftr all that we're still waiting on some killer apps...right? I really ent see no big draw since i finish Zelda. Raving rabbids and Warioware lookin good...but for $50 US, I think I'll hold on for Naruto 6....and Spiderman 3!!

Is it so much High Demand, or Low Supply? I think Nintendo is purposely providing LOW supply in order to create Higher DEMAND. Honestly I haven't sent my Wii back yet to get fixed, still pissed that it is not working anymore after only playing it for 2 weeks. The games are not that good right now, and I am not in a hurry to get it fixed.

nope, they are putting out with as much speed as possible,

What your talking about is sonys launch tactic, start with a little and create the semblance of high demand, but it backfired. Nintendo launched with way more than them and its still selling out no matter how much they ship.....and as far as I know, why delay your shipments when they're making so much money. They no longer need to convince people to buy them, so they dont need to use this tactic.......... http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=212

TAKTIKS!

Flood of Wii to end Wii drought

Plus Nintendo announces massive wad

By Dean Pullen: Friday 27 April 2007, 14:05
Click here to find out more!
NINTENDO PRESIDENT Satoru Iwata has promised to boost Wii production by next month after a period of severe shortages due to massive demand for Nintendo's new console.

"We must do our best to fix this abnormal lack of stock," Iwata said. "We have not been able to properly foresee demand. We will do our best to offer the machine for those who are waiting."

This comes shortly after rumours of Nintendo searching for further manufacturing partners to ramp up the manufacturing and supply of its sort-after consoles.

Further backing up these rumours and the promises from Iwata, a Nintendo spokesperson confirmed to GamesIndustry.biz that the company plans to increase Wii production as demand for the console continues to outstrip supply.

"For the first three months of this year we have been producing one million hardware units per month. We are increasing the manufacturing capacity and forecast to ship 14 million in this fiscal year to our distributors and retail customers globally," the spokesperson said.

These statements come shortly after Nintendo announced annual profits up 77.2% to ¥174.3bn ($1.4bn) for the year ending 31 March, with operating profit reaching ¥226.02bn ($1.9bn), which is an incredible 150% increase on last year’s figures.

Overall sales surged 90 per cent to a record ¥966.5 billion ($8.1 billion).

The record profits are certainly attributable to the incredible demand for Nintendo’s Wii and the continued sales of the DS.

Since its release in November 2006, Wii sales have topped 5.84m units globally along with almost 29m games, while DS sales exceeded 23m units along with game sales totaling 123m.

Nintendo also forecasted global sales of 14m Wii hardware units and 55m software unit sales in 2007's financial year, and projected sales of 22m DS systems and 130m games.

According to these predictions, the company forecast sales of ¥1.14tn, an 18% increase on 2006, and an operating profit growth of almost 20% to ¥270bn.

No wonder Mario can afford to fly off into space in his next adventure. Maybe he can pay for Stephen Hawking too. µ

DID I just see Tn as in TRILLION???

well it's in Yen right? so maybe Trillion wouldn't be too far fetched...

I like nintendo alot, in fact most of the older users know me for my Legend of Zelda Avatars and Sigs, but as iti s right now there are only 3 titles available for the Wii that i would purchase it i owned one: Zelda (an updated GCN title), Trauma Center (a literal 'WII-make' of a DS game i previously owned) and Super Paper Mario (originally intended for the GCN).

what about warioware? That and Paper Mario are gonna be my next wii acquisitions
