In Japan they were still shipping NES and SNES into 2003 (albeit slowly)... and I think it was 2008 when they stopped repairing them there (probably was early 2000s for America/PAL though)

As for my list of repairs... it is the same length as D21lewis'

I had a problem with overheating from playing Brawl too much. The Nintendo website has its very own troubleshooting link specificially for Brawl. My Wii wouldn't read any discs, so I looked up the problem on the support site at Nintendo.com, scheduled a repair, and they repaired my Wii and sent it back with no problems at all. I know it is the same Wii becuase the serial number is the same. Thanks Nintendo for the awesome service. I will always remain a loyal Nintendo fan!!! :)

I know Nintendo is great on this but I'm afraid to send my Wii in. It's out of Warranty anyway and they charge $75. Plus I tried fixing it myself bad move and I may have stripped a screw or two :p they probably don't like that.

I had a 2 year old Nintendo DS Lite that my little cousin gave to me. Apparently, he got so angry he bit the top screen off. Nintendo fixed it for $50.

Also, my Gamecube lens was damaged, sent it in. Free, 7 days. Even though I'm not supposed to, but I still touch the lens and for some reason it never fails to work.

I Love Nintendo's customer service. If only Microsoft (Not just for Xbox but other related products) was this good. Anybody who works with computers and has tried activating Windows knows what I'm talking about.

But on topic, Nintendo is the best example of a user-friendly customer service.

A few weeks ago my disc drive decided life wasn’t worth living... and so it exploded. Obviously I sent it off for repair straight away and was surprised when the Wii was returned. Not only had the disc drive been fixed but the dint my cat caused by flinging the system on the floor was also gone! Presumably Nintendo have a stock pile of fixed Wiis and just transfer the memory over? I can’t see them going out of their way to remove that relatively small dint.

wow.
