I got my Wii for Christmas in 2008 and I still have it today in 2023 and it works perfect. I’ve been playing a bunch lately. I still have the Wii remote that came with it and the one that came with Wii play. I have softmodded it with homebrew, usb loader, and rii connect 24. I have done no crazy modding like changing the Wii menu theme and other insane hacking stuff. And the funny thing is, I play mine on a Panasonic plasma tv too but I did buy some Wii component cables to upgrade it to 480p and it looks amazing. I do still have the original cables.
Did you know?: Wii sports was the best selling Nintendo exclusive game of all time. Edit: also back in the Wii days the Wii was playing every Nintendo game GameCube backwards compatible with the controller ports and memory cards on the top and the NES,SNES,N64,arcade games and mega drive and other ones that I forgot so the Wii was playing most Nintendo games which was awesome back in The day and also I have so many memories with this including the music and games so yeah good video
pretty much everyone knows, The Wii had the virtual shop which had pretty much every game from past Nintendo systems and some from Sega systems and only the Launch edition Wii or V1 Wii's were backward play with Gamecube games and controllers and memory cards meanwhile the family edition Wii or V2 lost that ability.
That wii is gamecube backwards compatible. Those slots r for gamecube memory cards and if u flip up the other flap next to it u can put 4 og gamecube controllers
I never did get an official Wii console, but I remember playing it in Germany where I spent my vacation with my family there. It's a pretty neat console and I feel like the Wii did the motion control gimmick the best. I mostly played Wii Sports, but it was fun. Even my family who actually hate gaming enjoyed playing the Wii to my surprise. It's very rare to see a console being made that everyone can enjoy playing. Now days, it's pretty difficult to buy old Nintendo consoles, because the old Nintendo games have very outrageous prices. My very first and only Nintendo console I currently own is the Nintendo Switch, but I mostly play games more on my PS2 & PS3 consoles, because I grew up with PlayStation & also I just enjoy playing older games in general. It's not like I don't play the Switch, I just personally enjoy playing games on older systems. There was even a moment where my tamily thought of getting a Wii at one point, but thay was years ago and it didn't happen.
9:13 "dont let the wii remote fly out of your hands, always use the jacket... umm i dont have one anymore" bro you literally just had a jacket for your wiimote a second ago where did it go
@@BenjaminsTech that’s fair enough, especially if you ever want to play GameCube games. Wii games look great in widescreen to me but my GameCube games look HORRIBLE stretched. You probably made the better original decision :)
Just bought Wii resort and it won’t connect to the internet 🤦🏽then I got it to the remote set up I pushed a and b and it still did nothing keeps going back to the remote setting I gave up🤷♀️
I know you asked 3 weeks ago, but all I know is you could use the USB ports for a Nintendo Wifi connector and the Guitar Hero guitar. Also, it can charge Wii remotes. Standard USB 2.0.
hi guys, anyone knows if this is the original box also in Europe? I've seen lots of unboxings from Spain and the sticker: Wii Sports included, is on the left instead. Here is on the right. Maybe I am the crazy one. Thanks!!
@@ryanpowers8973 thank you dear❤️❤️ yes i think play games gamecube on wii do me need memory on wii but play gamecube!! i will search in amazon jp i hope i found but how looks like style memory game cube

Wdym upgrade it to 480p?
@@user9999-z upgrade the picture quality to 480p
@@user9999-z Means set your Wii on 480p not 480i. I play mine on a Panasonic plasma tv too.
I’m glad people still care about this console! Such a great console and the fact that we still care so much more than Nintendo 😂
Bought a wii on 2020 and been loving it since
I got the super Mario bros Wii when I was like 8 and I'm 14 now and just got randomly given one for free nostalgia is hitting me hard right now
Nostalgia just hitting me hard!!

That’s so sick! I have Wii Sports + Resort in 2 games on 1 disc.

I got the wii back in around the year 2008-ish, and I played Wii sports and this was my first wii game

😃😃😃From one Benjamin to another, that was fun to watch!
Wii sports resort will always be the best game

Just getting my Wii out after not using it in probably 10 years so watching video is helpful.
I Got Mine Back in 2010 it was Awesome Wii Sports and Wii sports resort were the Games to Play
Tip on Wii bowling: When you throw the bowl on the side there's like a red button and it will make all of them fall
20:16 😍😍😍
I got mine Christmas 2007. Still have it and got it softmodded
Thanks bro I have Wii but I don't know to use it but now I know because of you
Nice i got the wii sport + resort bundle

I’m going to get the Nintendo Wii for Christmas! I also know that my cousins in Calgary (which is part of Canada) has that!
We love wii!
The flaps on the top are for GameCube Games you can put in your controller and memory card and play GameCube games
Do you think you’re ever gonna change your Wii screen to widescreen? I’d recommend it if you’re gonna keep playing.
I haven’t really considered it. I do like the old school look of non widescreen.
@@BenjaminsTech that’s fair enough, especially if you ever want to play GameCube games. Wii games look great in widescreen to me but my GameCube games look HORRIBLE stretched. You probably made the better original decision :)
5:13 that’s actually for a Nintendo GameCube, memory slots, and controller slots
1 question how did you download your games?
Tip: that wii remote grip you said that IS the jacket. So you actually had it!
I was 1 years old in 2006 and my parents got a Wii probably in 2007 08 it was my childhood console as well as the Gamecube and the 3DS
I'm crying
ill buy one too
Tip: The memory card slots are gamecube its backwards compatible with gamecube
Are they available in 2023 😂😂😂 I just wonder because I want that pretty bad 😢
Me either
Cool video
Make sure to homebrew. It’s so worth it.

Bought it when it came out. It was some local game store. Only place I could find it on launch day. Can’t remember the name.
@@BenjaminsTech oh ok thank you 😀

If that means anything to you, I was born in 2006 and got a Wii a couple months ago
i only have one wii remote because when i was little i spilled milk on it and never cleaned it up so😅
I just set up my wii from when I was 3, but any of the sport games I play, I can’t swing. Found out that my controllers movement sensor was busted :(
Wait did you tape the sensor bar on top or does it just stand up without tape
Mine just sits there
Yea I used to do that
Just bought Wii resort and it won’t connect to the internet 🤦🏽then I got it to the remote set up I pushed a and b and it still did nothing keeps going back to the remote setting I gave up🤷♀️
