WiiConnect24 Update Causing Issues For Wii Owners

An anonymous reader writes to mention coverage on IGN of an ongoing issue with a WiiConnect update. A faulty update may be causing some Wii consoles to become inoperative. Nintendo is replacing affected consoles, free of charge. From the article: "Several error codes have been reported so far, but the most prevalent of them are 110213 and 32002. We contacted Nintendo about this issue, and they filled us in on what you should do if you find yourself in this predicament. Currently, Nintendo has two options in place to resolve the problem. If you do not have any data saved to your system that is important to keep, then you can contact Nintendo customer service and they will ship a new console to you in 3-4 business days. However, if you do have important data saved to your system, then things get a little trickier"

    I downloaded the patch another user on this board downloaded the patch.

    When ever a system launch some fanboy of some other console will bitch and scream about some problem with the system. To me that's what this sounds like. Just some fan trying to create a problem. I'm sure there's a potential for a problem but rather then get in an uproar, I'd like to see a confirmed problem rather then a rumor.

    Not to sound like a jerk, but your comment reads like it was hammered out in a language translator.

    When Sony give a fuck about their customers like I saw Nintendo did then we'll talk about the bad press. Untill then I'll judge Sony on their actions.

    No you won't. You've already made up your mind. Besides, since you won't buy anything Sony anyways how are you supposed to realize it if Sony *does* start giving a fuck about customer service? Your happiness can be bought with t-shirts, you cheap bastard? hilarious.
