Forums - Nintendo - Wii U black screen help!

I have had a Wii U for a while now and just now I have some problems with it.

I turned it off to go to the store then I came home and now it says  gamepad wont connet to console and my tv screen is black even though I have everything hooked in. It says sync the controller but i cant type in the keys since the tv is black.. I have everything hooked in the way it should be I dont know why it happened any help?

unplug system from wall socket for 30 seconds, it will reset the console. Same thing happened to me a while back.



Bad hdmi cable?



 

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!) 

just put your gamepad next to console.

Glad I could help out! 



Can't count the number of times the "pull the power cord for 30s" treatment has worked for my electronics and appliances.



it used to happen all the time to me, but been a while since its happened
