the control seems to work but then it doesnt work??

like the home button works, on/off button works

the A button lets me go from the 1st screen to the main choosing screen then nothing works^


any help?

is this a used wii?
do you have your sensor bar setup correctly? do you use it on top of your screen or on the bottom, do your settings match this?
are your batteries fresh?
have you preferred all the wii system updates?
