My Wii is connected fine and gets the weather and news, but I have no shopping channel, and I don't see a way to add it - have kicked around a bit.

I'm sure I'm missing something, and the box is long gone (caught up w/ the Xmas stuff), so I'd love some help. Searching on "shopping channel" mainly returned results on wireless issues. My one other buddy that has one seemed mystified that I didn't have it already.

Thanks in advance!!!

I'm fairly certain that the Wii Shop Channel is supposed to be pre-downloaded onto your wii. Give Nintendo a call, you'll probably need to send it in for repair.

try doing an update on it. you can do this in the wii menu somewhere.

Its obvious that your wii has a defect and the shop channel was never programmed into it. Grab the receipt and return it or send it in for repairs. 1200 posts O YEAAH
