December 7th 2006 – I wake up, I run to my parents and I say “buy me a wii” my brother wakes up before I go to school and says the same thing. I head of the school, while he stays home from work (also my school >.<) to buy Wiis.

Later that day my brother comes home with 2 wiis, he had bought Zelda and Red Steel as games. Fun titles. He plugs in his wii to his tv set up and plays zelda for a bit, then updates his Wii to the newest firmwer as well as connecting it to the internet.

He then says “SHIT I GOTTA DO TRENTS WII BEFORE HE COMES HOME” so he dose it only to find it dosn’t work (it failed to connect to the internet).

He goes to target and buys me a Wii – this time it worked.

December 9th 2006 – I noticed my Wii froze every once in awhile, I thought nothing of it.

December 13th 2006 – Wii fucks up. Doesn’t respond to anything.

Wednesday that Week – I come home sick from school and my mum goes ‘you better not be doing this just to play wii’ I then tell her it dosn’t work, my brother rings up and gets a replacement one.

Friday that week – Replacement one comes, I play it for awhile.

Through out Xmas and early summer holidays – I noticed my Wii failed to read disks proplery, so I thought nothing of it because I was going away.

17th Jan 2007 – I get my mum to ring up Nintendo, it sounded like she thought the Wii had a scratched disk not a proper problem. My brother says ‘you did it wrong’.

18th Jan 2007 – My brother desides he can do it properly and rings up Nintendo, first about straps then rings up again about the Wii. He gets a chick who was helpfull and explained that because its a serive problem it goes to Target to be returned and sent to them.

We go to Target only to have backwords service, a lie if you must. Each said they can’t handle returns to Nintendo because they don’t deal with them. So we got a refund (which we didn’t know we where getting until my brother bought rayman and got $340 back) We talked to the head of the section for awhile, she was admazed and said I’m the only person with these problems.

We go to eb because I told my brother about the gc titles they had there. We buy a few preowened and talk to the manger and another staff member about Wii consoles. We then evolved the conversation into my wii problems and the fact they never herd of anything like this before. The other staff member said ‘must be bad luck’. We then talked to the manger about gc games, he took us to the section and my brother inquired about four swords which was $100 but the box was shit as, so we got $20 nocked off. A good day for gc games, a bad day for my wii.

We come home and my brother rings Nintendo, YES they do deal with retail, so we talked to the manger at target who will send it down, get it back then ring us up so we can buy back the console. Hopfuly this is the last time I have back luck with Wiis.
