Nintendo - I'm giving in - View Post

The Wii has a safe mode?

In what way is it different?

Oh, and I think everyone should know by now that if you have a problem with Nintendo produce, there is very rarely a bad point to sending it to Nintendo.

The bad point is the cost , but I guess it can't be helped and now I do have enough money for it. There is a safe mode type thing. When you turn it on, instead of just pressing A to get past the initial screen, you press and hold down + and - and then press A, and it boots into maintenance mode. I don't know the specific differences other than my system would freeze in normal mode and maintenance mode doesn't allow you to access the message center, so I wonder if when I get it back, there will be like 10 new messages to read.

See, I figured that it's either like safe mode and disabled whatever it was that was freezing my Wii or it could be a whole second copy of the operating system and as such wasn't in whatever memory that may've been corrupted or anything. Either way it was working alright until now.
