Do you leave your consoles on while you’re not playing them and if so, whats the longest you’ve left it on? does it matter if the system is disc based, cartridge etc?? why do you leave it on?
personally i was told by my parents to always turn it off when i was done. thinking this was a pretty normal thing to do until one of my friends shared with me that he always has his n64 running conkers bad fur day. if it isn’t, the powers out. I’m rather surprised, but curious if anyone else does this.
Bet you a nickel that old Wii now has a toasted GPU chip and graphical artifacts. The Wi-Fi chip apparently cooks the GPU if you has Wii24 enabled.
Oh it died a LONG time ago. There were issues with video so maybe that’s exactly what happened.
