Nintendo Wii Problems

Anyone help, my son inadvertantly pressed the sync button in the Wii remote when changing batteries. We now cannot get the remote to work with the console. We have tried re-syncing with the console which involved pressing sync button on remote and console until lights stop flashing on remote. However light wont stop flashing however long we keep both pressed.


any ideas anyone.

    Mine did this yesterday I pulled the power out of the back of the wii then put it back in again & it all started working OK again.

    Have you already tried this?

    worto.
  • Many thanks guys all sorted now. Originally we followed the instructions to the letter holding the remote 1m away from the sensor. However my lad tried it almost touching the sensor and its finally worked.
