My wii did something weird last night

I was playing Transformers on my wii last night and after a while the game went weird it stopped at the last image on the screen and just stayed there and either my television or the console itself made a loud buzzing sound and i had to unplug the power because it would not turn off by the power button on the remote and the consoles power button would not turn it off either. PLEASE someone help

I don't want it to happen agian

We've had our Wii for three days, and its already making a buzzing noise when you put a game disc in. And it's not something we can adjust, it's internal. Any suggestions as to what to do?

For some reason the only way to get my wii to come on is to unplug the main cord in the Wii, and then it turns red.When it turns red I press the power buton, but it doesn't come on. It just flashes green and orange for less than a sec. I made sure everything was correctly plugged in.

this happened to me once. the user manual isnt that good. re-register the remotes, press the red button on the wii console then the red buttons under the battery cover on the remotes.

metroid

i just bought a new metroid prime 3 game and put it in my wii. the wii didn't show anything in the disc channel so I clicked on it and had to have a wii update. i then tried to start the game, but there was an error that said the disc could not be read. this was a BRAND NEW GAME. i'm sending the game back for a replacement but could this be a problem with my wii?

Are updates required for newer games like Mario Party 8? I have a friend whom I let borrow but it wouldn't even boot up in his system =/ I just want to confirm that updates are required.

i'm a newb... i hate that word.

i just bought a wii, and it was working fine on my tv, but when i brought it to my girlfriends house (her tv is bigger than mine), i noticed that now the cursors lag a little bit. it's like they're almost a fraction of a second behind... could this just be that the tv is bigger, or could there be something wrong? that's the only problem though. it doesn't skip or disappear, just lags a little, and it seems that the second controller might be a little slower than the first... please help this newb

This is proving to be a common problem believe it or not. Rumor has it that MP3 taxes the system to the point that it can bring out flaws in a system that previously had no troubles prior. Silly as it may sound however if your system is still under warranty rent Metroid Prime 3 and play it awhile, just to see if yours is one of these "hidden flawed" systems. Better late than never.

Again, everyone needs to contact Nintendo via website or phone. I do not recommend e-mail as it seems Nintendo is a bit slow to respond to them.

(Guys with vibrating/"buzzing" discs. CALL NINTENDO!! Had the same problem and as soon as it was mentioned, they immediately began the service sequence questionnaire. Call before your warranties are up, and call before putting Wii points onto the console's internal ID if possible.)

Check your primary internet connection. Maybe your internet connection is interrupted.

I've added a couple of people to my Wii, and they have done the same. Problem is their names are still grey...what's wrong?

I found it to be kinda screwy like that myself. Try sending a message anyways, or delete them and start the process over again. Just guessing...
