New Wii Crashed

[RJU690]

I just purchased a Nintendo Wii and it crashed within the first 15 minutes of Wii Play. I eventually had to unplug it before being able to turn it off. I think this may be normal behavior because I have read numerous similar stories on this forum, but I'm unsure. Should I inform Nintendo of my problem or do you think my Nintendo Wii if fine? Thank you for your responses in advance.

I would keep playing it but if it happens again call Nintendo and they will take care of you

Don't fret too much. This happened to me my first time playing about 25 minutes in. After I unplugged it to turn it off after trying eveyr power switch known to man I looked at the cords in the back and the power cord into the Wii was no plugged in securely once I fixed this my Wii hasnt froze since.

Don't worry the same thing has happened to me twice since I've bought my Wii, just unplug it, plug it back in carry on doing w/e.

yup, this is the first "crash" I have ever heard of. Was it used?

No, I purchased a new one from Walmart yesterday.

If it keeps happening, give Nintendo a call. But it should be fine.

happened to me 3 times during SSX Blur. That's when i got the game though, not the system. After a few plays with it more it suddenly stopped. So don't panic!

What exactly did it do? I have had 2 seperate errors with my Wii, but they are rare.

FYI: no need to unplug when its frozen. just hold power button on the wii console for 5 seconds and it will shutdown. once red light is on, then push power to turn it back on.

I was playing Wii Play and while playing billiards, the image froze. I could still here the music though.

I'd contact nintendo if it happened again
