Wii System Files Are Corrupted

Their replacement system is painless. They mail you one that arrives in 2-3 days, THEN you mail them back yours, so you're never wii-less. Nintendo rocks.

EDIT: Oh, did I mention the return postage is pre-paid?

That must be new for the Wii... I had to return a GC on two different occasions and I sent mine first.

Though they did pick up all the postage, I had to provide a box and drop it off at a FedEx center, and Nintendo picked up the postage from there.

thats odd.  did that happen to you?  you would think that they wouldnt do that sort of thing.  

i mean whats to stop someone who has a working wii call and say that its broken.  then nintendo sends them a replacement and the person never sends his supposedly broken system back.

Hmmm it must depend on where you are....different places have different policies.......Im surprised nintendo would do that, cause it would be open to too much abuse (Eg, ninteno never getting your broken wii back)

Many of the console vendors will swap you consoles upfront only if you give them a credit card upfront.  If they don't receive your broken one, or it's been tampered with, they simply charge your card for the cost of the replacement that they sent you.


Exactly.
