WiiConnect 24 Update Breaking Systems?
Be careful what you wish for, you just might get a broken Wii.
by Micah Seff
November 20, 2006 - We have received word from numerous sources that running the initial WiiConnect 24 update on the Wii has had a tendency to cause a recurring error code. Several error codes have been reported so far, but the most prevalent of them are 110213 and 32002. We contacted Nintendo about this issue, and they filled us in on what you should do if you find yourself in this predicament.

Currently, Nintendo has two options in place to resolve the problem. If you do not have any data saved to your system that is important to keep, then you can contact Nintendo customer service and they will ship a new console to you in 3-4 business days. However, if you do have important data saved to your system, then things get a little trickier. Data like game saves and Miis are not disastrous to lose, but Virtual Console data is. While Virtual Console games are re-downloadable should you delete them, the data saved on your console regarding which games you have downloaded is tied to your system. In this situation, option #2 is the way to go.

Option #2 requires that Nintendo send you a shipping label which should take 4-10 business days. Once you receive the shipping label, you can use it to send the console to Nintendo for repairs, after which they will send it back to you. Sadly, this process takes 8-12 business days, meaning that if you choose option #2, you will be Wii-less for a good long while.

Nintendo could not comment on how widespread this problem is, but did say that they are currently looking into fixes that can be done without Nintendo replacing or repairing the console itself. If you find yourself receiving either of these error codes, or any others, please visit Nintendo's customer service website.

son of a cuss... anyone have this problem?  I haven't....   Bummer though, eh?

Bv :hat
 
Nintendo usually does a good job of testing things before releasing them, I have read in other forums that some people seem to be having a problem similiar to that. That was about the problem that seemed to be out there though....
 
Updated my system all the way, no problemsh ere.

Probablay a small portion of the population.
 
Hmm..it seems the Nintengods are human too. Oh well, I'd still go with Nintendo when it comes to durability and dependability.
 
I haven't hooked mine up to the internet yet. I hope mine isn't one of those bad ones, though. But I guess if I had to send it out to Nintendo, that would be an excuse to get back to Final Fantasy XII, which I stopped playing in favor of the Wii.

A better place for FF XII would be the closest garbage can.
 
You can always expect a few bad apples in there. I was one of the unlucky few to have some hardware malfunctions in my GC, but otherwise Nintendo really has never had a huge issue with anything. But, stuff happens. At least they're good enough to take care of it. I just hope I don't have to go through the process when I get my Wii.
