My Wii is bricked.

You know, the main way for it to get bricked is if you shut it down during a download or update.
Cause I had homebrew on my wii for a year or so and it hasn't got bricked yet and I updated it to something somewhat recent this week so I could play crystal bearers, and it was the official update.
But my guess is your bro didn't tell you something or it's something in it like to much dust or overheating..
Though I'm definitely gonna get my data backed up on a sd card now just to be safe xD
