Faulty Wii? Hardware issues?

[Uber-Zeo]

My Wiimote doesn't respond. The batteries are brand new and I've changed them several times. But the Wii doesn't recognize it. The Wiimote just has the buttons at the bottom blink 2 times when I press a button. >:S

Hi,Bought a wii just before Christmas and the power supply has failed .None in stock locally to do an exchange but Nintento are sending me a new power supply .Just hope that the console has'nt caused the failure and it is is an isolated problem.

I bought a Wii last week... Defective right from the box. Aparantly it boots and sync's with the Wiimote fine, but gives no video output what-so-ever. I get a "ding" on audio if I hit buttons on the Wiimote enough, and moving it back and forth the Wiimote rumbles as I'm going over buttons, but absolute black-screen on the video. Called Nintendo and they said it's either a bad console or a bad A/V cable.

They shipped a new Console that should arrive today according to UPS tracking. What I'm confused about is they're shipping a console only. If it turns out my cable is bad, they said to call back and they'd ship out a cable too >_<;; Why they don't send both, I do not know.

(Update)
The replacement Wii works great. Cable is fine, so the video connection inside the original Wii Console must be defective. Spent a couple of hours in Wii Sports last night happy as a clam!

Wii Video

I don't get any video out of my wii, I've had it for atleast 2 months and this has not happened before. Everything is connected but I don't get video, and ive tried on 2 different TVs. The audio works and I can hear the clicking noises and fell the rumble when i move my wiimote around over the wii menu. I dont know if its the cable and i should just buy a new one or if it's my wii.

Sounds exactly like how mine was out of the box. It was in the console itself, and Nintendo was quite prompt about shipping me out a replacement. If all else fails, call in the warranty people.

I swear to god the wii ate my wii sports disc. But it will still accept other discs fine. Am I losing my mind? Has anyone else experienced this?

Disc loading

Hi all, I brought a wii this afternoon afer waiting AGES to get one, set it up made my mii and went to put a game in ..zippo zilch nada, wouldn't take the disc!
Phoned Nintendo, bloke was really helpful, I got to send to them so they can switch it for me which really sucks and after reading all the pages of problems on here I'm a little on edge as to how many problems im going to have even when I finally get the discs to load!But as the feedback about the nintendo service centres efficiency all seems to be good thats helping a little bit

If u guys no how to solve this email me at Heroman711@hotmail.com

I know this probably seems like a pretty basic hardware issuue, but every 5 minutes or so of me playing my game stops and a messege comes up that says my Wii remote has lost connection, or something like that. I've tried moving my sensor bar and re-sync'ing my remote, but that hasn't helped.
Can anyone give me some ideas, I'd really appreciate it ^_^;
