Forums - Nintendo Discussion - I need help...

My Nintendo Wii has stopped working..It can get to all the menus just fine but every game I own doesn't work. It comes up "Unable to read disc", it hasn't worked in a week. Has this happened to anybody? And if not, what do you guys think I can do to fix the problem? It's only a year old and I was out to sea for 6 of those months! Thanks for any help!

Did you move the console? Did you insert the game disks correctly?



Wii code: 4679-4491-5808-6319,MKWii: 4296-3394-2843; Animal Crossing Wii: 3008-1736-4670.

 

Make sure you clean your discs, check them for any scratches or signs of damage. It may be it just needs a good clean. If the problem still occurs then its quite likely something has gone wrong with the disc drive. If its making a loud, whining, grating type of noise then its most likely failed. Unlucky dude, if its in warranty then get it repaired/replaced asap. Btw it might be useful looking to see if there are any electronic or simalr type shops nearby, they maybe able to give an instant remedy. It happens to cd/dvd players as well. Hope i helped in some way.

I think I had that problem once. I ended up falling back on my old training and blowing into the slot, and that seemed to clear the problem up, it might have just been a one time thing, and it was just coincidence that it cleared up when I did that.

Yeah, you might want to use a regular can of compressed air though, cause otherwise you'll be giving a blowjob to a Wii...



Seppukuties is like LBP Lite, on crack. Play it already!
