Problem with VC games

    Downloaded a few SNES games there and some of them dont work with a component connection. Screen goes blank. When I switch to the cable that came with the wii (scart) they work but the screen judders a bit every second and its annoying.
    Anyone have an idea how to fix it? Its a pain to switch between the two connections everytime I want to play a VC game.

    Some games may have issues with component cable systems. Have you checked the Wii Shop for updates to the games? Are you running the Wii in 50Mhz or 60Mhz mode?

    Dont see any updates for any of the games. I tryed both modes - 50 and 60mhz, made no difference.

    Leave your component cable in, and do this:
    Initially, some PAL Virtual Console games would not display correctly on high-definition televisions when connected via the component lead. However, starting with the April 13, 2007 update of the PAL Virtual Console, certain newly added games, such as Punch-Out!!, support the "Wii Component Cable Interlace mode." This is a temporary fix to problems with various Virtual Console games being played over component cable on HDTVs. The mode can be enabled by accessing the operations guide of the game, and (with the Nunchuk attached) pressing the buttons Z + A + 2 simultaneously. A sound is played if the mode is enabled correctly. Several older games also have updates available to enable the feature, such as Super Castlevania IV. The mode can be disabled by using the same method, but with the button combination Z + A + 1 instead.
