My wii has developed the GPU overheating problem, which causes annoying little visual
artifacts to appear in games. My should still be in warranty (barely, I bought
it 13 months ago, but I'm supposed to have an additional 3 month warranty for
registering the wii online), so hopefully nintendo will fix it free of charge
and without me losing my virtual console purchases (watch this space).
Update, 20080522: After a phone call to NOA, I got my repair changed from
"Payment due: $82.50" to covered under warranty. I'll have to hold my breath
for a few weeks to find out about the fate of my virtual console titles.
Lucky for me I never modded my wii!
Maybe I'll use this as an excuse to pick up a used PS2. Update: I did.
We Love Katamari is now devouring my time.
