I was wondering when the thread

lol sorry man

Want to bring it round mine and we can have a go

Leicester? Is that near?

Probably not faulty, might be overheating? Is it lying on the carpet or radiator at the back of it?

My 1st PS2 had problems when the radiator was behind it and on full blast, so rang up Sony and they gave me a brand new one from the factory.

not near enough to pop round :(

its not on carpet, not by radiator, rather hot house though :p

If there is anything on your account that you want to keep.... VC downloads, save games etc. then you need to send it to Nintendo for a replacement... something like a 3 day turn around was quoted in the US though not sure if they are taking any longer.

If nothing you want to save then take it to a shop and you will have to wait for new stock... my guess is it will be quicker going down the Nintendo route.
Phone them to ask about turn around time.

phone them, where i get the numbeR?

the people at **** (competitor btw ;) ) are probably just trying to help you. They know you will get a quicker turnaround through nintendo than they can give you?

spose.... i want one of the pre ordered ones, if they havent picked up by now lol they dont want it :p
 
my dad keeps telling me to get refund, but im like that leaves me with no wii

i just think the shop should replace it then they should get it replaced with nintendo as they have the consoles out back
 
well ill get on the phone to reggie tomorrow haha :) hopefully they can replace it by the end of the week, and ill be a happy bunny
