Anything and everything about retro and modern console repair.

If you've got a broken gaming console you are trying to fix, come here to talk about it. If you want to flex about a repair, post here. If you or your console's last lover did a non-destructive electronic mod to their console, or have a question about the options available or how to do it, you are welcome to post here.

If you suck at soldering, we still love you, but we might roast you.

If you did an extreme modification such as turning one of the few Nintendo Playstations into a Rubik's Cube, flex elsewhere. If you're trying to FIX a Nintendo Playstation that someone turned into a Rubik's Cube, post away!

Wii powers on with black screen with a single white dot on top right of screen (kbin.social)

So I picked up this Wii, and it appears to be softbricked. Original SD card is not included but I suspect it was a bad mod or something. The GPU DOES output, but the only thing it produces on screen is a black screen with a single white dot in the top right corner of the screen.

I am unable to boot into recovery mode via spamming buttons/DPad on the GC controller.

Any suggestions on how to fix/unbrick this?
