Nintendo 64: Tijdens spelen herstart Nintendo 64

Wed, 24 Dec 2025 00:15:45 -0700

Beste

Wij hebben gemerkt tijdens het spelen van bijvoorbeeld Mario Party dat de console gewoon uit zijn eigen reset en spel terug volledig op nieuw moeten beginnen van 0.

Wij zouden graag willen weten waar dit kan aanliggen?

Met vriendelijke groeten

Nintendo 64: N64 geeft geen beeld of geluid

Sat, 15 Nov 2025 01:43:08 -0700

Mijn N64 geeft geen beeld of geluid. Ik heb de jumperpack al verwisseld en de cartridgepoort zowel als de jumperpack poort gereinigd met isopropanol. Kabels zijn goed en getest op een werkende n64, net als de voeding.

Daarnaast heb ik al nieuwe elco's geïnstalleerd, gekeken of de poorten continuïteit geven en als laatste aan de onderkant van het bord gezocht naar kortsluiting.

C29 en C30 geven geen aarde weer met een continuïteit check, voor de rest geen rare waarden gevonden. Ik loop dus tegen een blok aan en wil vragen of jullie nog iets weten?

Nintendo Wii: waarom doet mijn beeld zo raar

Fri, 18 Dec 2020 16:08:03 -0700

goeden middag allemaal.

ik heb 2 weken geleden een nieuwe set kabels voor mijn Nintendo Wii besteld.

maar toen ik deze aansloot op mijn Wii en hem opstarten begon het scherm heel raar te doen zie foto in de bijlagen.

dus toen had ik het probleem eerst bij de component kabel gelegd maar toen ik deze had ontvangen bleef het zelfden probleem zich voordoen dus ben ik veder wat onderzoek gaan doen en wat blijkt dat de hoeveelheid stroom verbruik een invloed heeft op de hoeveelheid gestotter van het beeld dus ik heb het probleem geïsoleerd naar de gekochte power adapter.

na nog een mail naar het bedrijf waar ik de kabels heb besteld en ze hebben me een nieuwe adapter gestuurd alleen dat maakte geen verschil.

het probleem ligt ook niet bij de Wii zelf want op een andere set kabels doet hij het perfect.

weet iemand nog iets dat ik kan proberen.

zo niet een goede website om nog een nieuwe set te bestellen.

Nintendo GameCube: Waarom geeft de GameCube bij sommige spellen zwart wit beeld?

Sat, 30 May 2020 14:50:06 -0700

Ik heb mijn GameCube via een HDMI converter aangesloten aan een projector (Nebula capsule) met HDMI ingang. Nu doet bijvoorbeeld ‘Luigi's Mansion’ het wel, maar bij bijvoorbeeld ‘Mario Kart’ en ‘FIFA 2007’ krijg ik zwart-wit beeld.

Nintendo Wii: Why does my wii keeps ejecting my discs? How do I fix it?

Sat, 02 May 2026 10:22:32 -0700

I put the disk in. The wii ejects it after a few seconds. It then attempts to suck it back in followed shortly by an eject again and it doesn't suck it in again.

Nintendo GameCube: 3rd party Gamecube Memory Card doesn't read saves

Mon, 27 Apr 2026 07:24:58 -0700

Whenever I try to use the memory card in a game it says it's damaged, and in the settings it says: "The device inserted in Slot A cannot be used."

The only thing that happened to that memory card was me moving it from my Gamecube to my Wii occasionally.

Nintendo GameCube: Disc will stop spinning

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 08:03:36 -0700

My discs will initially start and load up, I can play for a few minutes. Then the disc will stop spinning during game play. I’ve tried cleaning the lens to no avail. Curious if this sounds like a fixable issue? Has happened with multiple games.

Nintendo GameCube: Only when disk tray is closed I have '' An error has occurred ''

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 08:01:00 -0700

My gamecube is booting fine, but if i have my disk tray closed or when a small sound coming from the disk reader ( still with the disk tray closed ) it will show me a red error message with the text : An error has occurred. Turn the Power Off and check the Nintendo GameCube Instruction Booklet for further instructions fix

I tried to boot the gamecube with the disk tray open, i don't have the small startup sound with the animation, it just shows gamecube, then it goes to the main menu. If i do this and then close my disk tray the error is coming back and i have to restart my gamecube.

It do exactly the same with a game.

I don't really understand what is happening, i checked the potentiometer ( it's between 150-250 ohm ) and my lens is not dirty or anything. This is really related to the disk tray and i don't get what could be the problem here. Probably the disk reader but where and what cause this ?

If someone have an answer at least to understand what is happening here it would be really nice.

Thanks

Nintendo GameCube: Is there a way to fix my gamecube error?

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 07:57:13 -0700

For the past year whenever I turn on my nintendo gamecube it comes up with the error:

"An error has occurred. Turn the Power Off and check the Nintendo GameCube Instruction Booklet for further instructions fix"

Now, the only thing I can find online about this at all is the pdf for the Instruction manual which tells me to just call nintendo support. I did that a long time ago and they told me to send it in. I do not want to spend that kind of money, especially now that it is years outdated. Does anybody have any idea what the issue is? I love learning about electronics. Is it a motherboard issue? The disc spins and it is not game specific. The same message pops up even if there is no game. So far everybody online has been completely useless. I could easily drop a small amount of money and get another one these days, but then I would learn nothing about the system. I am doing this as a learning experience as to what makes electronics run.

Nintendo GameCube: Disk drive not working

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 05:44:43 -0700

I tested the console before installing PicoLoader and the disc drive was working correctly. After installing it, the drive no longer spins, even after uninstalling PicoLoader and restoring it to its original state.

After reinstalling PicoLoader and booting into SWISS, the DVD drive does not appear in the list of sources. I tried swapping drives with another GameCube, and the issue is with the drive itself.

Nintendo Wii U GamePad: How do I fix my wii u gamepad's tilt/motion sensors?

My wii u gamepad's tilt/motion thing doesn't function properly after dropping it, and recalibrating it using the hidden menu doesn't help at all. The charging port also seems to be damaged, and the way the motion sensors are damaged is that if i tilt it forwards, it shifts to the left, and if i tilt it backwards, it shifts to the right

Nintendo Wii: Why is my Wii producing a dark picture?

Sun, 05 Apr 2026 00:40:43 -0700

I got out my old Wii that worked fine for the longest time with no issue, one day I go to turn it one, and the picture displayed is very dim and hard to see but there is still one. I know it is not the tv or the power cable as my grandparent’s Wii still works perfectly and theirs still works fine with my cables and on my tv. What could be the issue and how would I fix it. If I can’t fix it is it possible to get another Wii and transfer the data over to that new one?

Nintendo Wii: "System Files Corrupted" error when accessing Wii settings menu

Wed, 01 Apr 2026 14:05:55 -0700

I got an RVL-001 Wii from a thrift store. It is unmodded and on version 4.3U as far as I can tell. It reads discs well enough to display the game channel correctly but won't start them. It also throws a "system files are corrupt" error message when I try to access the Wii settings menu, but I can access the data management menu. I've deleted some channels thinking it might be a banner brick issue. Starting in maintenance mode doesn't help, either. I tried installing homebrew through the bluebomb method but have been unsuccessful. Is this salvageable, or is the thing bricked?

Nintendo Wii: Persistent freeze on wii sports resort golf

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 08:27:22 -0700

Hi,

Me and my roomates are big fans of playing Golf on Wii Sports Resort. We have the original Wii (NA Canada version, RVL-001 I believe) and original remotes with some Motion Plus adapters I bought online (not official I'm pretty sure). We've had some problems with syncing the adapters but always managed to make it work. However, we've had a lagging problem that has now turned in a freezing problem and happens everytime we play Golf. The game starts to lag and then freezes 100%, the remote is unresponsive (not even home button) and the game is hard stuck (altough the soothing wind sound is still playing, and music also when there is some). This happens around 3 holes in the game or before. Other games don't suffer from this problem and even other sports on Wii Sports Resort seem fine. I have even bought a brand new copy of the game thinking it would fix it but I have the same problem.

What I have done:

- Powercycle the wii.

- Clean the air traps of dust.

- Delete the game data.

- Desync (15s on the red button beside the sd card slot) the remote and resync.

- Bought a brand new disc.

- Recalibrate the sensor to max light setting.

- Update the wii system to last version (4.3U).

-Deactivated WiiConnect24.

I read that the disk is double layered and that might be the cause, and I need to clean the lens so I bought the lens cleaning kit and cleaned my lens 2 times today, without success. Could it be that I need a wii RVL-101 version for tbis game? However, I'm a bit skeptical that other games on the same disk are working. Also today I played some 3 holes and it worked fine, for some reason. Any of you ever had this problem and if so, how did you fix it? Thanks in advance for your help!

Nintendo Wii U GamePad: Wii U Gamepad drifting

Sun, 29 Mar 2026 22:43:44 -0700

My Wii U has had an issue with the left joystick drifting. I have purchase a repair kit off Amazon, but after also using a repair kit to fix a Switch joycon, I am not convinced the quality of the products is good enough (the joycon worked for about 2 weeks, before drifting again).
Is there somewhere to buy better quality replacement pieces?
