Okay well I got a Wii for Christmas and 2 days later it broke... the Gamecube disc got stuck (Wii dropped, small fall). I return it to the store to get fix they tell me it will be done in 2 weeks. I'm in Belgium so I think they gave it to Nintendo Germany. Well just today more than 3 weeks... about 6 weeks later the store tells me i can come pick it up... I'm not there so I have someone else doing it for me and when the friend gets there the store said it's not fixed ... they couldn't fix it (AFTER 6 WEEKS of WAITING!) ... So not only they didn't fix it but they dont give me a replacement i just get the CASH back lol... and the game isn't returned or refunded. So this sucks, Nintendo and that store suck... Nintendo could have giving me another Wii especially that you can't find them still and now I got to go hunting for a Wii and I worked so hard to get one for Xmas.


So  NINTENDO CUSTOMER SERVICE IN EUROPE SUCKS and
DON"T DROP YOUR WII WITH A GAMECUBE DISC OR ITS BROKEN FOREVER!

If your system broke it is your fault.  I got mine on launch day and I haven't had a single problem. :em-25:

Haha...

You went through the store to try to get your Wii fixed (and its not certain that it was ever sent to Nintendo). Look in the manual and give Nintendo a call and talk to them and see if Nintendo can help you at all....word of advice: don't tell them that you were using it as a football. Nintendo has a reputation of having good customer service so give them a call and be honest about the whole situation, just exclude the part about the Wii dropping. Hope it works out for you.

I'm so sorry to hear that, DJ Zilla.  You must be very disappointed to have waited so long already, and now you just have cash back instead of a working Wii.
Puff Daddy has a good idea about calling Nintendo.  I think I would do anything to try to get a Wii back in my house.

Hey lol well first of all I didn't break it... its my 6 years old cousin who pulled the NON-wireless controller lol...

I contacted Nintendo explained what happened and they told me not a problem that they are sending the entire box back with a new Console... now whats wack is that the stupid store refunded even though they knew it was coming back!!!!! So since I'm not there to do it myself (I'm in another country for 2 weeks) ... I have other people doing it for me... so I forwarded them the email and told them to go to the store give the money back to them and show the store the email that our console is going to be back...

Ends up the store doesn't want to deal with it and made it sound that the refund was the only solution ... so bottom line the store customer service sucks and not nintendo... I wrote an e-mail that was kind of immature to Nintendo because I was mad but they responded very nicely and even called the person... well the store doesn't want to do it even though Nintendo is sending my NINTENDO back to the store with a new console lol... the store said that I just have to go and come when they have it for sale... lol... oh well... I have to call and find out whats new but this is so wack...

PS: I didnt re-read this post im sure theres some mistakes and sometimes doesnt make sense.. sorry

So what store are we supposed to keep away from?  Please tell us what store had such bad customer service so that we can all boycott it.

You need a members card to get into a store with that bad costomer service?  That is a rip off.

I work at a game store, but didn't get my Wii at that store, rather I waited at Best Buy during the second big shipment of Wiis on January 21st, and got the second to last one. This one little kid calls the store I work at EVERY SINGLE DAY to see if we have Wiis. One day, The call went:
Kid: Do you have a Wii?
Me: Yes I do... (pause) What do you need to know about it?
Kid: No, I meant can I buy one?
Me: Oh my, no. We've been sold out for weeks.
Kid: ...BYE
It may be mean, but he's annoying

Well, now I want to join in on the Nintendo bashing. If you haven't read my Mario 8 post....Mario 8 has been pushed back from March 5th to June 1st....

That sucks. Nintendo promised no shortage of new games out and well....there sure is a shortage now. And reason is because Nintendo wasn't completely ready at launch due to the lack of online gameplay and not having a fully operating online browser. And due to this, games are pushing themselves back to have online content/gameplay or at least thats my hunch. Because on June 1st, MP3: Corruption, SSBB, Fire Emblem, and many other games are being released with Mario Party 8. This is good news in the sense as we kind of know when to expect online gameplay, however this is bad news because it is creating a shortage of games and instead we are stuck with playing Barnyard. Thanks Nintendo...bunch of dickwads.

You can check this out at Gamestop.com, look at the upcoming games for the Wii.

I wouldn't be checking on Gamestop's website. GameStop is just a store, not an actual company that knows the dates for a game. Most likely, MP3, SSBB, and other games like that will not be out until holiday season (in order to compete with other titles such as Halo 3 and MGS).

But this is kind of off subject, so I'll put in my 2 cents. As everyone has said, you should have just called Nintendo. I've done it plenty of times, and they were always nice, cheerful and always had a solution for my problems. Also, I wouldn't buy from that store anymore, unless it's your only place to buy electronics.
