no i don't think thats it, I'm pretty sure the Wii is completely backwards compatible. (unlike that big black thing)

What specific games have you tried (just to cross check potential compatibility issues, though I don't believe there is any)?
Are the GC games scratched at all?
I ask because *if* the games are in fact (99.9% likely) compatible, then there has to be some other issue - the Wii may be much more scratch sensitive vs. the GC.
If they were loading and hanging or crashing mid game, I might wonder about something at the gamecode level, but this sounds like a physical issue with [reading] the media.
Or something paranormal...

I would look on Nintendo's Customer Service Website, and either call them or send them an email.

* Check the bottom of the Game Disc (the side without any labels or writing) for any dirt or damage (such as cracks, scratches, etc.).
o If the games look significantly damaged, such as with scratches or cracks, it will need to be replaced. Please click here for our Game Disc replacement options.
o If the game looks dirty (fingerprints, smudges), try cleaning the Game Discs by clicking here. If the problem persists, the Game Discs will need to be replaced. Please click here for our Game Disc replacement options.
If the above information does not solve your problem, then it appears there is a problem with the Wii console and it will need to be repaired. Please click here for repair options.

You can follow this link for repair options:

Hope this helps
