Yup. It'll be alright though. If you got a warranty. I'm sure Ninty'll be good to ya if you haven't called them yet.

I think my wii is overheating. It turns itself off after about 3-4 hours at first, the only way to turn it on is to unplug the AC adapter and put it back in. The left side of the wii (if you are facing the front) gets very hot, hotter than i'd expect for a console being played for a few hours. The right side is pretty much fine.

WiiConnect 24 is not enabled, nor dose it have anything to do with it. I've had it enabled before and it never got so much as warm, much less the heat it's generating after just a few hours of play.

The wii is in the vertical position with the stand on top of wood. I've heard 3rd party stuff can screw with it, I have a 3rd party gamecube controller and memory card, though my wii DID overheat with nothing attatched but the vitals.

Is there anything to do to fix this? Maybe stick an external fan next to it or something? It's a big problem in games with sparse save points =/. I fought ganon 3 times in TP because of this.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

My son and I were playing the wii just fine. I hooked it up last night, we played for an hour or so and we played again today for about three hours. After that it just stopped reading discs. It won't read sports, sonic or any gamecube games. I tried all of them. I also had an issue with the remote last night. After about 20 minutes of playing the remote stopped working and would just flash the LED's at me. What is up with this system. Should I just get my money back? I guess it could be worse. It could be christmas morning with my son all upset. What is wrong with this thing?

It seems that alot of things with this system do not work. When I called them today I asked why they are selling systems without fixing the known issues. The reply I got was "they are not ALL broken". Okay, only most of them. He tried to tell me that they would replace my system with a remanufactured one. I am sorry but I lost it. I spend all that money two days ago. It is broken within 4 hours of use and they won't send a new one. Needless to say they are sending a new one and at their expense. They tried to get me to pay shipping and I said no. This whole thing is ridiculous.

Hi,
I've just got a Wii and added a registered a friend using his console number. He has also registered me but neither of us can send a message to the other! We each show as in the others address book but the send message option is greyed out. We are both connected via valid broadband connections.

Can anyone suggest what might be going wrong or what we might have missed?

Thanks,
Lanie.

whats up with my remotes one day they work next day they don't go on?

[lofz]

this remote thing happens to me sometimes, the four LED lights just blink for about 5 seconds then stop...

i find turning unplugging the console power for 2-3 minutes and removing the batteries from the wiimote for the same amount of time then turnin everythin back on again works...

if you read the Wii manual, which is so much simpler than signing up here and posting questions, you'll find the answers about wiimotes

theres 3 or 4 things it could be jus check da manual. c00l
