Official Wii Thread: Part 4

I guess Rampage just doesn't support in-game syncing because it doesn't use Miis, or because it's kinda crappy. Whatever. Everything works great now, so I don't care.

No offense but your biggest problem is that you're playing Rampage.

quick question, i dont know what my little sister did with the Wii manual, but when i hold the off button on the wiimote to turn it off, the wii has a yellow light instead of the red, and the disc slot glows on and off. I called my cousin who says his doesnt do that. Is it cause i have it connected on the internet and this is the wiiconnect24 stuff or is this just some odd standby.

Its on standby and its connected to the net.

None taken. It's not my system and I didn't pick the games.

Is there some special procedure to get the Internet Channel? I go to the Wii options screen and click on system updates, but it says I have the latest system software already?

It's a free download from the Wii Shop channel.

Download it from the Shopping Channel (in the Wii Ware section)

sheeeeesh, my Wii has crashed atleast 20 times in 2 hours. x_x

yes i just bought mine and it's giving me hell. I managed to download the latest update and get the weather channel and Opera browser, but it seems like my Wii crashes randomly, or more like every 15-20 minutes.....but when playing rayman it crashes as soon as the mini game starts!

i looked though the Nintendo.com Wii trouble shooting and they recommended using channel 1 or 11 on the router, mine was 6, so i switched to 11 and somehow the download speed doubled if not tippled, but it still did not stop the Wii from crashing.

is anyone having the same problem? i hope a new update is out soon. and last, do you recommend i enable or disable WiiConnect24? ......FUCK MY WII CRASHED AGAIN AS I WAS TYPING THIS MESSAGE!!!

Channels are just for speed. By default most routers ship on channel 5 or 6, so if you have any neighbors with wireless networks they will start to conflict and moving to as far away as you can from the default channel can improve your speed.

Your Wii crashing is a different matter entirely.

Your Wii is boned. These next gen consoles are all shit!
