Nowadays you can get a USB-C plug with 12v power delivery that terminates in the DC barrel plug these power supplies use. Pretty nice option, especially with modern backup batteries and PD USB-C adapters that can feed more than one cable.

IMPORTANT NOTE: After completing all the steps shown in the video, BootMii will still be on your system. To remove it, you must do an exploit like Wilbrand, str2hax, Smash Stack etc. to load the HackMii Installer, and then uninstall BootMii as IOS and boot2 if you have access to it from there. Now your Wii has absolutely no hacks whatsoever. Hope this helps someone!

It just doesn't feel right looking at another white wii. My old man(before his stroke), would keep buying these broken wii consoles and fix them up. He even gave me one to let me dump the certs, keys, and nand on to Dolphin. I did the format system a few days ago. I ended up losing all wii saves of wii games, but it kept the gamecube saves, and the mii channel still had the mii.

Hello, at first glance I was thinking the same thing as it's just basic soldering that would have been required to fix that melted Outlet. I have a completely recapped power source and anything else in the Saturn that needed recapping as well as FRAM mod and everything else you could do to a Saturn including MODE and having a custom PCB made for optical digital output directly from the sound chip from the tech I bought it from. My question is everything runs perfectly however I wonder if I should buy one of these new type power supplies to have as a backup. If I did so, would it be better to run the newer modern power supply and keep my new recapped original power supply stored away for safekeeping for another day... since it's a better power source Than This Modern one? I ask because it sounds like you know much more than I do about Electronics and I always take any and all advice when it comes to preserving my Retro Game Collection especially my Saturn! :)

(Peep this comment if your WII does not support "boot2" and make sure to completely read it.) A bit of backstory. I originally had the wii modded with DIOSMIOS and it overwrote the cIOS. So GameCube functionality was no longer an option even after formatting the wii. After a click or two on KZitem I found this video. Assuming you followed this video already, Fast forward to 10:06. The nand restore. Due to no boot2 the nand restore text box indicated that it was UNSAFE due to no boot2 functionality (as said my wii did not support it and I had to use boot-ios), I had to use the KONAMI code with a GameCube controller, and I was again prompted that it was UNSAFE but did it anyway. NONE of my blocks came up as BLACK or GRAY, which of course was either good or bad in my head. After the restore, I was brought back to the BootMii menu and held the power button down until the wii turned off. I powered the wii back on and had nothing but a black screen..... for about 20 seconds, and then the wii setup options started. SUCCESS!!!! I just completed this for the first time and it went very well. This video is perfect and big ups to the creator for a very easy and smooth tutorial. As I wrote earlier, the wii I originally modded way back when did not support boot2. This did not at all affect the use of this video. Always remember that without boot2 installed there is a possibility to not be able to restore the nand backup if this method fails, as you cannot reboot your wii into the BootMii menu and restore your old nand. Whether you use BOOT2 or BOOT-IOS does not cause the possibility of bricking, it is a failed NAND restore, or a failed NAND rebuild that bricks your wii. With that being said always remember that bricking is a possibility and it is only YOU the USER that is RESPONSIBLE, but in my OPINION, following this video to the T, there SHOULDN'T be any issues. but there is always a RISK.

Might be some sort of hardware problem, I have another Wii that got fried in a thunderstorm and still turns on but only shows a black screen. If you can get to boot2 maybe try another restore, if not you might be able to reflash the nand with a hardware flasher but that would likely be more expensive than picking up another Wii on ebay.

Anything that completely overwrites the nand on any device has some level of danger. With bootmii installed to boot2 it's not too dangerous as you should theoretically still be able to boot into bootmii and restore another nand backup if something goes wrong. But there is always a chance your SD card gets corrupted or the power goes out mid restoration or something. No shame if you don't want to risk bricking your console!

I did not have any heating issues with my ReSaturn, even after playing on the console for a few hours. I would verify your AC adapter is working properly and then probably contact Rexus for support. The biggest downside of units like the ReSaturn is their reliance on 3rd party AC adapters as the quality on these can be pretty hit or miss and almost all of them are made in China.

If your Wii supports installing BootMii to boot2, the risk of bricking your console is relatively low because you will still be able to boot into BootMii and restore your NAND back to your original backup. That being said, this process or any other that modifies the Wii's NAND could potentially brick it.

Correct, restoring the NAND back to stock will erase any save data stored on the Wii. You can back up saves and other data for most games to an SD card but there are some titles that prevent you from moving their save files. I believe you can use a homebrew application like SaveGame Manager GX to backup restricted saves but you would likely need to hack the Wii again in order to restore them.
