Have you ever been playing your Wii and have it go blank on you and felt completely lost with nowhere to turn to repair you Nintendo Wii? Are you like me and do not trust the UPS, Fed X, USPS shipping centers with your precious electronics nor do you trust the so called repair centers that employ not-so competent technicians? Don't feel like you are alone. There are plenty of us that have been in your situation and frantically working to come up with a viable solution to get your Wii repaired and running again without having to send it half way around the world and risk loss or damage. I came up with what I thought would be the best option, repairing my own Nintendo Wii. You heard me right, I said repairing my own Wii. From what I understood, there are a handful of things that go wrong with the Wii console and with a helpful troubleshooting guide it is fairly easy to repair your Wii. Especially if there is some sort of support system in place to ask your own specific questions if needed.
Let me first tell you my story. Nothing ruins my Friday night more than a broken Wii console. I know some people like to go to a club to enjoy a drink, I do too every now and then. But when you just came from a hell-week with a tyrannical boss and mountains of paperwork, sometimes you just want to end the week at home playing with your beloved metal companion... the Nintendo Wii!
Now just exactly what do I do? The Wife and kids are residing at the in-laws house until the next day and this is the perfect time to spend having Wii competitions with my friends. But I have to come up with a solution to get my Wii up and running.
Of course I did explore a few conventional options such as sending my Wii in for repair. To one of those no-name repair shops with some guy named Bubba sticking his dirty fingers in my faithful Wii companion. No way. For starters who is going to guarantee fast and safe shipment to the center and secondly who says the shop is going to not cut and run with my Wii or try to fool me into paying hefty prices for un-needed parts and repairs or just keep my Wii and never send it back.
Probably the most memorable one is that it arrived working but has an ungodly number of scratches that were not there before. Now who do I blame this on? The shipping or freight company for not caring for my Wii in transit or do I blame the repair facility and some guy named Bubba, working on my Wii with his dirty fingers. I'm just a little too obsessive compulsive so I just gave it away.
Bottom line, this is my second unit and as much as possible I don't want anybody touching it but me - since I know this is just a simple problem that I can fix if I have an easy to follow Wii fix guide. I mean, I work at a bank and though I don't have much technical training, I am not totally technically impaired.
So I proceeded to do some research and found a few discussions on a couple of top gaming forums and found some answers to help resolve my issue. From what I can tell there are a few options out there but only one that has a great reputation along with real email support. The Wii fix guide at this website seems to be the Cadillac of Wii repair guides. To top it off being able to ask questions and get a quick answer from a knowledgeable person is worth so much more.
Well, after visiting the website I was able to erase any doubts that were left. The site was professional and answered most of my questions and also confirmed the question on email support. Email support is offered at no extra cost. This guy will even tell you if your Wii is too far gone and then refund the book if you find no value. Great guy!
So to make a long story short I repaired my Wii that night and was much happier and able to spend the rest of the evening playing my favorite gaming console.
