I was clicking through the internet and found a recent article about the nintendo wii so I had read it and thought that maybe i should let People know at hyrule.net to know what's happening about the wii... so for those who haven't purchased a nintendo wii i'd rather wait until this is fixed or you can take the risks...

Nintendo of America has moved quickly to sort out problems experienced by a handful of Wii owners whose consoles were "bricked" by a WiiConnect24 downloadable update.

The patch, of sorts, appears to have crippled a small number of consoles, and Nintendo's admitted that these will need to be replaced.

According to a report on IGN, the company has offered to replace consoles within 3-4 business days, although it will take slightly longer (4-10 days) to process consoles where customers want to retrieve stored data (for example, downloaded Virtual Console games).

Nintendo UK said that it expected the teething problems that have led to the problem to be resolved in time for the console's launch here on 8th December.

It's true, but it's rare. It didn't happen to me and likely won't happen hereafter, so it doesn't really bother me at all.

true, that never crossed my mind, lol, but hopefully it'll get fixed, unfortunately, i've already scratched my itches with those games, minus a link to the past, i lost my gba, so i havnt been able to finish it <_<

but im sure nintendo will fix this problemo ASAP, if it's just a problem with the internet they wouldnt have to recall anything, no biggie, and i've noticed pretty much EVERY console has problems when it first comes out, lol, but as much as nintendo cares, im sure this problem will be fixed before i even get a wii!

that's The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition. I believe it was sold in stores for a VERY short time. I have a copy. You can only buy it off of eBay and used game stores now.
