A Problem With Smash Bros.
March 10th, 2008 by Will Prusik in Action, News, Wii
After the midnight madness release of Smash Bros. Brawl, a few gamers are finding themselves rather dissapointed that their late night huddle in the cold winter air was fruitless. Usually problems crop up due to bad discs or bugs in the game itself. This issue that luckily has only affected a small number of users is due to some problems with the Wii itself, not the game. The Smash Bros. Brawl disc is double-layered so they can fit all the wonderful content on there. Unfortunately for some, a few Wiis out there have a small amount of contamination on the lens, likely a residue from the manufacturing process that nobody had reason to notice before now, that’s preventing the consoles from reading the double-layer discs. If you’ve run into this problem yourself, there’s a cleaning service offered. It’s only offered to United States residents, which could mean that we’re the only ones who received Wiis that are contaminated.

The issue with the SSBB dics isn’t all lens problems. It was an attack aimed at those with mod chips… The virus or code or what ever you want to call it (i prefer virus ^^) was aimed to stop mod chipped consoles from being able to play the game. Unfortunatly it did hurt a small percentage of non moded systemsbut that wasnt intentional
To solve this for those with a moded system all you need to do is simply download the latest update (wikey update 1.9s), burn it onto a dvd -r using IMG Burn, Put it in the wii and follow the instructions and BAM you’ll be playing brawl again.. pretty odd way to clean a lens right? Get it right nintendo lol. I love nintendo.. but this was a joke
