    I wanted to reminisce and play De Blob. But, when I went to put it in, I realized that the Wii's light is off. I tried pressing buttons, I tried unplugging it, I even replaced the battery. Nothing is working. I have no idea what's wrong with it.

    Yeah, it may have just broke from use over the years.

    Burnt out? That can happen? It hasn't been used in long time either.

    I have no played on my Wii in so long ever since I got the Wii U last year.

    I should check and see if it still works.

    I don't see much point in keeping a Wii if the Wii U is backwards compatible.

    Do you keep it plugged in all the time? Mine won't start after a power surge, and has to be unplugged for 15 minutes before it'll work again.
