If your warranty has expired you have to pay both for shipping and cleansing. In Norway where I live the cleansing alone is $110.
This problem only occurs with older Wii consoles, so its an easy way out for the money-grabbing bast***s Nintendo.
I bought SSBM for full price 1 year after release, only to find out I needed to pay way more than that just to be able to play it. So naturally I sold it. Nintendo refused to pay for the cleansing.
Sucks that I wont be able to play Metroid Prime Trilogy.
