Has anyone else had issues with artifacting on the Wii (white speckles showing up in the same place during certain events)? I've noticed it in Dragon Ball Z and the the Globe Screen on the Wii Forecast Channel, and I find it bothersome. Is it really just coincidence that my brother's Wii bricked and I have Artifacting issues, or is there a bigger problem out there with the Wii?

Odd, I haven't seen anything like this.  Are you using component or composite video?

I verified that it was a hardware problem by checking both cables to see if it occurred. It did, and I called Nintendo. They are going to replace the system, because well, artifacts suck. I guess that means that in 5 days I'll have a new Wii Number.

This will be the second Wii to have issues. I guess we are really unlucky.

My Wii did something strange twice.

I had finished my gaming session normally and turned the system "off" with the Wiimote (and the system was in the "yellow light online" standby).  When I came back to play next, the system would not turn on.  The controller would flash like it coulnd't find the Wii.  I had to unplug the system and plug it back in (and the system went into "red light offline" standby), before it would work again.

This happened twice, both about a week or two after I got the system.

I've had that happen on several occasions, I found it to be very weird. We had an occasion at St0rmTK421's house where the damn thing had problems syncing period, but since I am getting my Wii replaced I'm over it. I just wish the Elebits Save would copy to the SD card, which it won't.

Nintendo has seemed to have joined the other two for hardware quirks, lord knows the xbox, 360, ps2 and ps3 have them. Nintendo is usually spot-on for this sort of thing, I mean how many problems have you heard of with their hardware after the Nes?

Now here we are with DS's with various little annoyances or defects and now Wii's. I think the pressure for manufacturing large numbers has made them relax QA for sake of speed.

They need to do some updates with there stuff such as letting us able to put all our saves onto an SD card.  I don't get that BS.  I can understand the VC games but the regular game saves.  Also they need to do some updates with the Forecast channel.  Maybe this could be saved as a weekly chat topic...

This image describes my feelings of Nintendo's thinking behind the name perfectly Tongue

My Wii is not online and I am not sure if it will ever be online. Or until I get the adapter that lets me make it a wired system.

I have a wireless router. I have heard people have nothing but trouble getting it online. I put my WEP in twice when I first set up my Wii but it didn't work. I know I will get pissed when I can't get it to connect so I haven't tried again.
