I would try and fix it.



I've had the same problem, on two different tvs. Any help would be appreciated.



I would replace the cables just to be sure, but I think they were feeding a pile of crap when they said you TV will play Wii in 720p.



 



I've had two different sets, first was a third party set that I figured weren't any good, and the set I have now are Nintendo.

I'd beat my wife and kids. If that didn't fix it there's always the dog.

O.o


Seriously, idk. Have you tried putting some other device on same tv inputs to ensure its not the tv?



Component Video and Progressive Scan Hookup

 


In order to use the Wii Component Video Cables, your TV will
need to have component inputs such as these.

    Connecting the Cables, AC Adapter, and Controllers:

  1. Locate the audio/video INPUT jacks AND the component INPUT jacks on the TV.
  2. Connect the Component Video Cable to the Component Video inputs as follows:

     

    • Insert the Green plug in the green hole labeled Y on the back of the TV.
    • Insert the Blue plug in the blue hole labeled Pb or Cb on the back of the TV.
    • Insert the Red plug in the red hole labeled Pr or Cr on the back of the TV.
  3. Connect the Stereo AV Cable Cable to the Audio inputs associated to the Component inputs:

     

    • Insert the Red (Audio Right) plug into Audio IN Right.
    • Insert the White (Audio Left) plug into Audio IN Left.
    • Let the Yellow (Video) plug hang. Do not insert it in the Video In input.
  4. Connect the rectangular plug of the Component Video Cable into the Digital AV Out port on the back of the Wii console.
  5. Plug the Sensor Bar connector (red) into the back of the Wii console.
  6. Make sure the system is on a hard flat surface. Allow plenty of space around the unit for ventilation. Make sure the power button is in the OFF position (button is not pressed-in).
  7. Plug the AC Adapter into the back of the system into the DC 12V In port (fits only one way). Plug the other end into a wall outlet.
  8. Turn the power on.
  9. Turn on the TV or VCR and locate the input select. It's often called Input Select, AUX (auxilary), Line, Line In, Input, Source, Select, In, or EXT (external. Switch the input select to show the Nintendo game.
  10. Finding the Correct Input on Your TV:

  11. Turn on the TV and set it to the appropriate input select. The Nintendo GameCube logo should appear on the screen, followed by the game's main menu.

     

Displaying a Game in Progressive Scan Mode:
In order to display a game in progressive scan mode, the Wii console must be set to "480p" from the Wii System menu. Click here for information on doing this.

Note about using progressive scan in the future: Once you have accessed progressive scan mode once, the next time you attempt to play a Wii game that is progressive scan-compatible, the system will remember this setting and will default to progressive scan for each game you play in the future that is progressive scan compatible.

thanks but why does it say the gamecube logo should appear..and it says the button in not pressed in...wii doesn't do that the button stays where it is its just the light and by the way in component cables you don't have a yellow cable at all....just the red white red blue and green....I know how to plug it in its just that the video doesn't show up until i take it out and plug it back in...and the problem is not with my tv as for the fact that every thing else works when i use the same inputs...just the wii cables....
