    The original Wii (any Wii with Gamecube compatibility) actually had the capability to play DVDs, it was just disabled in the firmware so Nintendo didn't have to pay a commission per console. That could be remedied by modding the console to re-enable that functionality.

    Your content is fine, but people are clearly frustrated with your titles and thumbnails. The title implies that on your journey of repairing old consoles you stumbled across some sensitive information. I think you could alleviate this frustration by simply making your metadata more accurate to the content of the videos, or vice versa. A less misleading title for this video or others like it would be something like "People don't reset their consoles | Hampton Haul Part X" You can still be vague about it so long as it directly addresses the implication of the title within the first minute of the video. Otherwise people feel a little lost or misled within the first minute. I'd recommend looking at @GregSalazar 's channel for reference. Or you could continue engaging the algorithm by frustrating people enough to leave comments or suggestions. Might get you more views in the end though? Your choice if you want to sacrifice your integrity and subscriber trust for that. You decide how you make and present the content and the viewers decide if they'll stick around. I'm just saying, there are ways to keep their trust and gain their respect. Good luck to you in your console repairing journey!

    I'm not surprised at all that a lot of these Wiis dont have much in terms of saves on them. The console was really inexpensive, but the games were really expensive. I remember growing up with a small library because we couldn't afford $50 for a game that came out 5 years prior. The prices of nintendo games have always been incredible ludicrous.

    Kingdom Come: Deliverance is actually pretty good if you're into medieval settings and light RPG elements. The combat can be challenging at first as it's directional based and requires some timing but it gets easier as you progress and level up more. I really like that style of combat though but I did see people complain about it. It's worth a shot if you like that style / setting. If you don't care for knights and shit though I wouldn't bother.

      @jayc.landgraf6828 Před 13 dny

      As it turns out (due to a lot of help in the community), the YLOD was caused by bad GPUs on models with the 90nm RSX, and NEC caps on models with the 65nm RSX. The 360 GPU on the Xenon - EARLY-Falcon (LATE-Falcons made in May '08 and all Opus boards and later fixed this) had a defect with the underfill supporting the GPU die's connection to the substrate/interposer (the green part of the GPU), which would soften at the GPU's default target temp *and* expand due to a spike in the CTE. The only permanent fix sadly for these faulty GPUs is replacement, so unless you have a rare/valuable console, you're better off getting a later Phat or Slim PS3 or a 360 phat, slim or E made in May '08 or later.

    This should be a reminder that you should wipe your game consoles before giving them away or selling them off. Not just game consoles either, but laptops, PCs, phones, the amount of tech that's just thrown away or sold leaving behind personal information that someone could use against you. Even if you think it's insignificant amount of information, always destroy your data properly. destroy the disk if you have to, because replacing them is really cheap these days particularly mechanical drives, since they're being slowly replaced with solid state drives that have increasing read-write speeds.

    The fact that any of those Wiis had a working disc drive is amazing to me. 4/5 Wiis that my immediate family owns have had their disc drives fail, and they were all bought new over the course of a few years back in the day. And the last one that hasn't had a failed disc drive I simply don't believe my sister has used it in years and so I suspect it'll turn out to have failed next time she uses it.
    I should also mention that we aren't terribly hard on our stuff. Our Wiis are in very good condition, nothing broken off, no gross stuff stuck to them or anything. Just, eventually they stopped being able to read discs.

    I have one of those 360’s somewhere in my storage… I got my hddvd painted to match it(which is also somewhere in storage) I don’t use it anymore because I’ve got the halo 4 console… that I also don’t use, but if I ever needed to pull out one of my 360’s, it would be the halo 4 one…

    The wii I have has the usual stuff: Save files from the previous owner. But in the last page of the wii menu, there's the photo channel and there I can see the photo of a kid. I don't have any idea who that is. I believe the previous owner put the photo channel way in the back to hide it or something?

    Xbox One is just funky like that. With mine, I have to hold the disc for a second as the drive is sucking it in before letting it go for the drive to actually read it. This was after I replaced the entire drive, so either both were faulty (doubtful) or there's something else up with the console. Reads fine when I do that, though.

    • @lotsysjr6607
      @lotsysjr6607 Před 4 měsíci +1

      i used to do the same thing on my launch xb1. you gotta hold it till the drive cranks up faster then let it go. itll read perfectly then

    • @LucasSholes
      @LucasSholes Před 4 měsíci

      This is the correct answer. You have to hold it for a second and it will try to pull it in harder, then release. The disc doesn't seem to usually seat correctly in these early models otherwise.

    I still have my Wii hooked up as a main console. Though I don't play Wii games often, I do boot up GameCube games rather regularly. I should look into videos on how to clean it out. Despite still working just fine, I'm sure it needs it.

    How is like all of these consoles still logged in and everything in them? That is insane!
    Also kinda boring to just take consoles and plug them in and see them working. Like that's fine, good even as it means that people can just get and use these immidiately, but especially with stuff like Wii missing the flaps, just have 3D print new flaps or the consoles which are scratched to hell get whole new housing and proper cleaning and all that.

    it's kind of baffling how no console has ever been upgradable, you always have to buy the next model. it would be nice to have a console we could just repair ourselves and upgrade at home, like a modular console. it would also make repairing bulk loads of consoles like this much more efficient.

    The Xbox One original was notorious for bad Blu-Ray drives, mine would not recognize xbox one discs or would but fail but would also occasionally recognize and play 360 games but to get any game to work I would keep encountering that spin up then down defect until i kept inserting and ejecting the disc. I ended up just buying all my games digitally and eventually upgrading to a series S
