My nintendo wii's video cuts in an out, sometimes it flickers or tears, other times it goes black completely. I thought it was the cable so I got a new one but it's still doing it. I noticed when you unplug the cable the wii side connector has some contacts like a usb device or old cartridges. Do those ever wear out or need cleaning? I couldn't find anything online about this.
 
Solution
Have you tried on another TV, or even on other Ports on the TV? If the problem still happens, try to clean out the port on the Wii. If that still doesn't work, I would suggest seeing if Nintendo or a 3rd party solution could see if it may be an issue on the inside on the console.
