The error was something like "SYSTEM MEMORY IS CORRUPT, PLEASE CHECK YOUR TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE"

This happened to me tonight. I tried turning the Wii off and back on several times, but the error message came up every time. Finally I tried unplugging the power to get the system "completely" off (i.e., "red light" off, not "yellow light" off), and then it started up fine after that. The very first thing I did was back up all of my game saves to SD card. Some game saves cannot be copied or moved to SD card, however (mostly games with online components, I believe). Anyone know why the system is designed that way?
