My Wii drive isn't working so i may not be on for A WHILE.

Ironically I have the same thing.
My drive used to refuse to fully spin. Now it won't spin at all. Emailed nintendo they're sending me a postage sticker and they'll evaluate the damage and charge. Could be free, who know.
If it's too expensive I'm getting it back and fix it myself.

that sux guys how does tht even happen? dust get in the wii?

That has never happened to my Wii... and it's old too

Not dust. It's a hardware failure. Call of Duty games make the drive spin loudly.
Mine is a release-day wii.

I've been saving up for a laptop upgrade and NOW i have to fix my very Wii. I'm a hardcore nintendo fanboy but this is just pissing me off.

Tech problems are a PAIN!

Well you could fix it yourself for like 20-40 dollars. And a tri-wing screwdriver.
Just look up how to open the wii, and take out the Drive.
Then place the new one in.
Any drive will work for wii, D2B D2E any of those. Some places have em. Internet is the easiest way.

I believe Yak had the exact same problem as well. Oh the irony of it all.

My father's thinking about getting an XBOX360. I do NOT want an XBOX360.

Why don't you want a 360?

I've been with Nintendo all my life. Microsoft fucked me over with the last XBOX360 i bought from them. It got red ring instantly and they didn't fix it or give me a replacement. AND I had a 1 yr warranty too.

if anything go ps3 if yu have to leave nintendo ps3 is reliable
