Is my WiiU broken? :( (Wii mode/Wii VC not working)

Wierd. But that sort of confirms my suspicion that this is a software bug and not a Hardware fault though, wich means it might get fixed in a sneaky update by Nintendo. (Hopefully they will, even though they don't really support the WiiU anymore...)

Glad to hear that it fixed itself for you though!

I'm going to try and move some Wii games from my external harddrive to my system storage. Maybe Wii Mode has trouble connecting to it? If that fails I'm either calling Nintendo, or just hoping that it fixes itself, like it did for you.

Yeah, I think it would be best to call Nintendo to see if they can fix it, but they would likely charge you for the repair, which might be a problem.  I kind of just ignored it for awhile, because at the time I had a Wii to fall back on whenever I felt like playing any Wii games.

Unfortunately I don't have a Wii to fall back on anymore. I guess I could play my physical Wii games in the meantime since at least Wii Mode still works, though.

Also, I'd play around with your video modes as well. That might help.

Thanks for the Link! I'd never have deleted the connection files. I'll see if that works and will try to change the video modes around.
