View Full Version : Stupid MF'ing Wiimote...

It's already broke, I think.

So my friend Greg came over on Tuesday, and played it for a good 5 hours that night, 5 or so they next day. So around noonish we went to the mall, and when we came back, the Wiimote was being douchey. I can turn on the Wii console just fine, but when I try to turn on the Wiimote or whatever, the 4 LED's at the bottom just blink a few times and die. I switched the batteries with fresh packs twice...

I have no idea what to do, but I can't return my Wii... Cause there's none left, I'd just be left with store credit.

Ideas? Suggestions? Anything ??

Yeah, the two red buttons? I tried that whole 'thing' and nothing. Still just the for LED's blinking.

Hanzo, I could barely afford this Wii. How am I supposed to buy another?

As well as that, I can't just take it back, or I'd be stuck with store credit for the next couple weeks until AFTER Christmas to get another from Best Buy, so yeahh... I'm sorta screwed, unless I can fix the Wiimote, since that's the only problem with it as of now.

Ahhh, I see. Get a job then. :)

EDIT: You did say you hit the wall with your controller when playing bowling before, so that's the cause of the malfunction.

i had that same problem on like the third day of having it. i just played with the sync and pressed A alot, and moved it alot and it started kinda working. later i tried syncing it and it wasnt freakin working. i got realy mad, but eventualy it did sync up,i took the batteries out and then put wm back in and for whatever reason that helped, and now it works great. so idk, just keep messin with it i guess.
