Should I Repair My Nintendo Wii?

By James Pierce




The Nintendo Wii is considered a 7th generation game console. As we all know the Wii console competes with other popular gaming systems such as the Microsoft Xbox and Sonly PlayStation. Unlike the other systems just mentioned, the Wii promotes a much more socially active entertainment experience as it helps to bring friends and family together sometimes for hours on end of gaming entertainment.

I never considered Wii repair until one night while I was unwinding from work and playing the Wii with my family I decided to do an update to my Wii system. It was then that I noticed I had only 3 Gigabytes of memory out of the total 8 Gigabytes I had in this system. It was then that everything started going downhill and started to get very stressful. My whole system started getting really sluggish and slow and not reacting to simple things such as trying to access system setup or open a simple small image.

As a result of all these problems I decide to consider the addition of a thumb drive. This worked very well at the beginning but after some time small complications began to emerge. The USB port 2.0 became very outdated and as a result data transmission became very slower and the USB port could only allow the device to draw a maximum of 500mA of current power per port. It was then that I decided I had to do something such as find a way to repair my Wii.

I was against the fence on this and was leaning toward sending my Wii out for repair but soon decided I needed to live a little and take the plunge into repairing my own Wii. Soon after I was mid deep into repairing my own Nintendo Wii. I did come across a question but soon had an answer after placing an email to the free support that was provided. I am now up and running again.

The first option that always seems to pop up is sending your Wii out for repair to one of the many repair houses. There a ton of mixed reviews on this. Some people paying an arm and a leg to get their Wii back and not to mention the big hassle of getting it ready to ship then having to deal with the long wait times. Some people ended up getting their Wii back with tons of scratches and marks that were not on them previously. I then found a lot of good info on a Wii Repair Guide. It had great reviews and live email support. I am good with my hands and directions so I knew this was the way I wanted to go. With live email support you can?t go wrong. I had my Wii up and running real quick after doing the upgrades.
