Of the systems that ask for a Start Up disk...are they only from Gamestop? I preordered mine and it was picked up on launch date from my local Gamestop.

For those who don't know about the start up disk, here is the problem:

Error:Wii asks you for start-up disk

Problem: When first starting up your Wii, it asks you for a start up disk, which you do not have.

Solution: You are going to have to call Nintendo, since they accidentally sent you a "demo" system that was sent to stores like Gamestop.

Does anyone know if it's just Gamestop that had these? I just don't want to get a 'demo' system on Christmas.

There were so few of those it is very unlikely you got one. . .but if you did, then I guess it sucks to be you!

Well, I know this doesn't answer your question, but I think the people that set up the Wii at Gamestop are retards. Why would you put the sensor bar in a cabnit?
