"Attention All Wii Users"

Ok I saw an old topic named like this one and someone in it said something and I really wanted to reply to it:

Topic start:

Today, I turned on my wii (as usual), and played some Resident Evil 4.

The game is irrelevant, any game will apply:

My wii kept randomly turning off. I felt the console and it was really hot. I smelled in the area where there are ventilation holes, and I could "smell" heat (like the smell you get from a hairdryer after using it for a while).

I figured the problem was down to overheating. Sure enough, I looked at the fan while the console was off. I could see the blades not moving (obviously).

But I turn the console on while looking at teh fan, and it didn't move! The fan was not working!

I got a small pin, and put it inside the fan hole, and gave the fan a little nudge. After doing so, it started moving again.

Anyway, I left my Wii off for a while to cool down, then turned it back on again and the fan was indeed still working.

To all Wii users:
make sure, each and every time you turn your Wii on, that the fan is going, and if it isn't, stick something in there and give it a little nudge, and it should start moving again.

I looked this up on the internet and it happens to other people too.
If you leave your fan not working and you keep leaving your Wii to overheat, the CPu (and other components) will fry, leaving you with a broken Wii. But check every time, thus make it start moving should it ever not, and you'll be fine.

Just beware, that's all.

The message I HAD to reply to:

this will usually work for any fan you have

I even had an old box fan that started in this same manner

that said, maybe you could take your Wii back to Nintendo before it's too late?

Yeah, I totally get what you mean. I mean, I'm in a band, and I don't want to let my fans down.

Yeah I registered here only to say that.

That being said you have way too many "I'm-not-a-computer" things. Wow man, there sure are a lot of those. Woah! Or is it Whoa? I really feel the "h" BEFORE the oa. I'll go with "Wow" I guess, to be sure.

And wow that other topic creator sure sounds like a nice guy. But almost in a fag way. But not quite. (No offense you're not there yet)

Other great quote:

If you're not mad enough to bare-knuckle box, then you're not mad!

And also sorry that this is really not gaming discussion.

Is this a bot, a troll, or a fucking idiot?

What? I didn't say anything to be offensive. I just happened to be reading through this forum yesterday and I just had to reply to that. I don't know why, it just, I had to.

Ya, but once you beat him, you can use Novicemans powers to befuddle Proman. With Promans powers you can finish the rest.

Speaking of robot masters.

Maybe that deserves its own thread?
