wii virtual console problems?

Posted by buddha

i dont know how wide scale the problem is but i hav a friend who has broadband and whos wii keeps popping up an error message when he tries to download a game. m worried that dis will happen on mine too so if anyone knows how best to use broadband for wii please assist. does it need to be a wireless connection or will i need to buy a cable of sum sort? i have broadband for my PC all hooked up. tanx

I occasionally got the message too. What you gotta try in that situation is changing the channel your wireless router is using. Most routers default to channel 6 I believe. Nintendo says to try changing it to 7 or 11, but you may still have problems on these channels. Try some obscure channel like 3 or 5. I have mine on 3 and have yet to experience anymore problems.

I downloaded 1 game and thought ,why the heck would I pay $8-$10 to download a game when I can goto a flee market and but the console and 100 games for the same price,, I think they should lower the price, even tho it is nice that you can download the games and there trying to make money off it,they should still lower the price.

I agree with you. I mean, I will pay whatever the price is to get a classic/hard to find game, but they should lower the point cost.

It should be...200 points for a nes game, 400 for a snes and genesis game, 800 for a n64 game.

well its like $20 for a 2000 point card and you only can get 2 games maybe 3 games for that price...thats kind of stupid... but nin needs to make money some how because in 3 years no one will be buying a wii.

You get 2-4 games for $20, which is $5-10 each.

How do you figure no one will buy a Wii in ten years when it's already selling better than Gamecube ever did?

and how have the sales been for the gamecube,CRUDDY! because nintendo sold out there own system,

Nintendo did not sell out their own system; they kept it alive for the most part. Aside from RE4, there weren't really many games from third parties that kept the system, and the company for that matter, in the running.

I cannot possibly begin to fathom what you are attempting to vomit out in this sentence.

And let's take a look at this:

I hope you realize this makes you loose the tiny shred of credibility you may of had.
