Powering off while in a GC game instead loads BootMii... So, I was playing a GameCube game (Sonic Mega Collection to be exact), and got bored of it. So I get and go turn off the Wii. Well, instead of it powering off like it's supposed to, it instead loads BootMii and then commences to launching the System Menu. Would anyone know happen to why it does this with GC games? I'm curious.http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50483#msg-50483Thu, 18 Jun 2026 19:31:07 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50501#msg-50501 Re: Powering off while in a GC game instead loads BootMii...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50501#msg-50501

I believe this is normal since it happens to me too.

Oh, okay. If this is the case, then I guess I'll have to make it a habit to take out the SD Card when playing a GC game.]]> Sonicdude41 BootMii BetaSun, 07 Mar 2010 22:02:53 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50498#msg-50498 Re: Powering off while in a GC game instead loads BootMii...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50498#msg-50498 jbc007 BootMii BetaSun, 07 Mar 2010 20:45:44 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50495#msg-50495 Re: Powering off while in a GC game instead loads BootMii...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50495#msg-50495
But anyways, I'm positive I'm hitting the Power button.

Actually, I pressed the Reset button while in Super Mario Sunshine, and it reset the game, so resetting still appears to work.]]> Sonicdude41 BootMii BetaSun, 07 Mar 2010 20:05:29 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50494#msg-50494 Re: Powering off while in a GC game instead loads BootMii...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50494#msg-50494 Arikado BootMii BetaSun, 07 Mar 2010 20:01:34 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50493#msg-50493 Re: Powering off while in a GC game instead loads BootMii...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50493#msg-50493
And I'm absolutely positive I'm not hitting it twice. I tested it again to make sure that wasn't the case.

I can't power off with the Wii Remote in GC Mode, so I know that it's only the Power button on the front of the Wii that does this.]]> Sonicdude41 BootMii BetaSun, 07 Mar 2010 19:53:23 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50492#msg-50492 Re: Powering off while in a GC game instead loads BootMii...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50492#msg-50492
Are you sure you're not hitting the power button twice? And if you're using the buttons on the front of the Wii, are you sure you're not hitting the reset button?

Have you tried both powering off with the wiimote and the power button on the front of the Wii?]]> Arikado BootMii BetaSun, 07 Mar 2010 19:31:26 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50490#msg-50490 Re: Powering off while in a GC game instead loads BootMii...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50490#msg-50490
Yeah, it just did the same thing with Super Mario Sunshine. I'm guessing it's not supposed to do this, is it?]]> Sonicdude41 BootMii BetaSun, 07 Mar 2010 19:20:43 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50487#msg-50487 Re: Powering off while in a GC game instead loads BootMii...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50487#msg-50487every time after you're done with a gamecube game?]]> Arikado BootMii BetaSun, 07 Mar 2010 19:14:48 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50483#msg-50483 Powering off while in a GC game instead loads BootMii...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?25,50483,50483#msg-50483
