Default Australia Wii in Canada

I lived in Australia, bought a Wii. Moved to Canada and my Wii now displays in black and white.
How do I fix this?

Thanks,

there was a link on the main page a week back detailing how to change the region on your wii. give it a go. I haven't had to do it yet so I can't help you further.

You can also try finding a TV that can display PAL video modes as well as NTSC

Switching from Jap to NTSC I can confirm works but PAL to NTSC I hope will work. The method isnt exactly safe and could cause a bricked wii if not done properly.

Perhaps if you find a buyer back in Australia and want to buy a new wii you can contact us for a premodded NTSC -U system

I changed a JAP wii into a PAL wii and all went well. So changing to and from any region is possible. Follow this tutorial and you can't go far wrong...

All Wiis are identical hardwarewise, so it shouldn't be a problem to change the region either way.
