Can you ask your bro what EXACTLY happened when "something happened?"

Do you mean re-0download it from VC to the SD? Is there rules against that...? (doesnt have VC, wouldnt know)

TheGameNinja · March 02, 2011, 10:32:30 AM

He did re-download it from the VC, which is perfectly legal. Once you pay for it once, you can re-download it as much as you want.

Pretty much like the PS3 and 360

I mean putting games on an SD card. isnt there something against THAT. As in, they wont play..or something...

anyway, ask him if he turned it off wihout saving. also try unplug, as well as the safe startup mode (worth a shot)

TheGameNinja · March 02, 2011, 10:52:36 AM

I tried unplugging and safe startup, but neither helped.

You know... have u checked the contents of the SD Card to see if any files were corrupted?

hhhmmmm, mine only takes roughly 15-30 mins...
Have you tried disconnecting EVERYTHING and leave it in a cold place over night?
Thats how I got my PS1 to work

TheGameNinja · March 02, 2011, 12:52:29 PM

I'll try it, but I don't have high hopes.

I'll probably just end up shelling out the cash for the repair.

Why would that prevent the Wii from booting up?

TheGameNinja · March 02, 2011, 02:04:13 PM

the SD card isn't even in it anymore.

Super Sonic Boom · March 02, 2011, 03:11:25 PM

What a shame...or is it...

SmashFinale · March 02, 2011, 03:18:37 PM

i didnt say that the SD card was Preventing it from working. I said to check the contents of the SD Card so you can make sure no important files were deleted
