Will Nintendo replace broken gamecube port doors???

Shadowpunk · 03-18-2007, 06:55 PM

Well my Wii fell while it was on its stand to the ground and my top door thing fell off you know the one you pop open to connect the gamecube could you buy a replacement or do you think Nintendo will replace it?

It pops back on. >_<

Unless the little hinge actually broke, then i'm not sure. I'm not an expert with warranties.

If the actual panel isn't broken, it can be put back on if your careful.

If not, I'm not sure if Nintendo will replace them, the easiest way to find out would be to email or phone them and ask.

Nintendo will replace anything for a $$$

Shadowpunk · 03-18-2007, 07:02 PM

Yea the actual door hinge fell off

ssbb_lover · 03-18-2007, 07:03 PM

He says that it fell off. Not broke or anything...from what it sounds all he needs to do is pop it back on.

Shadowpunk · 03-18-2007, 07:04 PM

Nintendo either gets back quickly or very slowly, so i'd go ahead an email em'.

so I guess you want to keep the cover on? if you keep it in a dust free environment, you shouldn't need it, but anyway, try super gling it back on, that is unless you lost it, then look for a replacement Wii GC port cover, i'm pretty sure there is a defective one somewhere you can get the cover off of, otherwise, like everyone else says, just call nintendo

They didn't break due to anything Nintendo did incorrectly, they broke due to something you did. Just buy a new cover, if you really want it. It is only one dollar in the online store.

You have parents, correct? Have one of them order it, and you pay them back. You broke it (or your brother, or whoever), pay to fix it. Why do people feel that they are owed handouts from companies due to their own neglect?

Considering that this is the second story of the event that led to the damage, I have even less sympathy. I didn't know that was possible. You cannot afford $1 + shipping?

NO I CANNOT AFFORD $1 DOLLAR WAT YOU THINK I RICH??? OMG PLUS I HAVE TO PAY SHIPPING TOO

FWELR · 03-20-2007, 01:48 AM

from what is sounds like, if you play ssbm every day like i do, i wouldn't worry about it. i myself popped it off just cause i got annoyed putting it down and up all the time.

Shadowpunk · 03-20-2007, 02:07 AM

Well i was jp lol i know $1 aint alot but still i already notified Nintendo they have yet to reply...

cannon · 03-20-2007, 05:15 AM

Just tell nintendo that when you got it out of the box it was broken simple no questions asked.

gamechaser001 · 03-20-2007, 10:36 PM

Wait a minute, FWELR took off the cover and dosen't use it, and Shadowpunk needs one, this may not be the best idea, but what if you guys traded somehow?
