Broken Virtual Console Games

[Slithersoul]

Whenever I launch a Virtual Console game, it's black, but the game is still functioning. Jumping in mario creates the jumping noise, but you cannot see anything. The game re-appears when the Home button is pressed, but goes away again as soon as I exit the Home menu. This does not happen with other Wii channels or Discs, and will happen on SNES or NES games, but not N64. I tried rebooting, resetting, playing with widescreen, and updating my menu, but nothing. I was running Homebrew for a while but then I deleted it. Never trust a hack that a company is trying to battle.  >:(

Please help ASAP, I intend to sell my Wii in a week or two and I won't be able to if it's broken!  :'(

Straight from Nintendo, if this doesn't work, try different video settings

Display problems while playing Virtual Console games

If you are experiencing display issues (dim, blank or half-blank screen, ghosted image, etc.) with a Virtual Console game while using the Component Video Cable, please read the following:

Some Virtual Console games default to displaying 240 lines of video. Some HD TV's are unable to display a signal with only 240 lines. Try the steps below to set the Wii to output 480 lines of video, which may solve the problem:

   1. While on the Wii Channel Menu (main screen of the Wii), connect a Nunchuk to Wii Remote.
   2. Select the Virtual Console game from the Wii menu, then select "Start" to begin the game.
   3. When the game starts, press the Home button on the Wii Remote. (In many games, the music can be heard when the game starts.)
   4. Select "Operations Manual" from the Home menu.
   5. Press the Z + A + 2 Button simultaneously (the Z Button is on the Nunchuk). A sound will be heard if the button combination has been entered correctly.
   6. Close the Home menu. The game should now display correctly. Note: You will not have to do this the next time you play, as the Wii console will remember these settings.

If the Virtual Console game is still not displaying properly, but all other games work fine, please call 1-800-255-3700 so that we may assist you further.

You using a HD Tv? Try a standard tv and see if the problem remains.  You sure you have tried all the different video settings? I had the same exact problem, Black Screen, but could still hear the sounds and hitting the home key made the screen appear. sounds exactly the same to me.

I had a normal tv but when I plugged it into my HDTV it was fixed.
