On another note, does anyone have me on their Strikers FC list, because if they do, then I'll be up for a game, just talk to me on MSN at [email protected]

I'll take you on later next week after my exams, I've been playing Strikers again lately and am looking for someone to pound :lol:. I'm a Nintendo guy to.
 
Sorry for the double post but this thread isn't doing much atm. Sooo....I was just wondering ifthe Wii could only be taken back to Nintendo in its time of warranty to be repaired or can it be repaired by them at any time so long as you haven't stuffed around with it. (Not that I have, I'm not that dumb). And also how long is the usual warranty? Or do they vary?

Thanks
 
I watched first half of a pretty lengthy, not that professional MySims review made by some Australian dude a couple of days ago, and I would like to find that video and his homepage again. I think I might have found the link somewhere around this forum. Any chance that anyone have any idea of what/who I might be talking about?

Oh, ok then. Thanks for that, Do you guys know how much the repairs cost or are they depending on what repairs you have to get done?

I'm presuming the cost differs depending on what parts are needed, amout of labour required ect.
