“NINTENDO US To Repair WII Consoles”
Nintendo US said it would repair all Wii consoles struggling to play the highly-anticipated first-party title
Super Smash Bros Brawl.
Some users said they were getting disc read errors with the game, which Nintendo blames on the lens inside the Wii
console. North American consumers can send their consoles to Nintendo for repair free of charge, as the problem lies
with the hardware, not the software.
Nintendo has moved swiftly with a North American repair form, explaining that the double-layer disc can only
be read by a squeaky-clean disc drive lens. They implore you not to try to clean said lens on your own, and to
send in your console to Nintendo HQ for a thorough cleaning. We’re sure they’ll get your newly
spruced up console back to you as fast as they can..
SUPER SMASH Bros BRAWL (Game Review)
“Super Smash Bros Brawl utilises a double-layer disc which has a large memory capacity. A very small percentage
of Wii consoles may have trouble consistently reading data off this large capacity disc if there is some
contamination on the lens of the drive,” said the company.
The game sold over one million units in the first 11 days in Japan, and has rcently gone on sale in the US.
In multiplayer games, characters from all Nintendo universes meet up in Nintendo locales to duke it out.
In the solo mode called “The Subspace Emissary,” the world of Smash Bros. is invaded by an entity called the
Ancient Minister and his army of creatures, called “The Primid.” Normally, characters come alive in the world
of Smash Bros. to do battle, then turn back into trophies when defeated. However, the Ancient Minister starts
turning characters into trophies to harness their power, then detonates bombs that suck pieces of the world back
into his realm of Subspace. Eventually, all the characters must work together to defeat the invading creatures
from Subspace – this is accomplished by playing through side-scrolling levels.
Nintendo have big hopes for this game, so lets see what happens over the coming months.
Warner Brothers has just released screens for its new movie tie-in Speed Racer.
The game which is to be released on the PS2, DS and the wii, and is based on the shortly to be released movie by The Wachowski Brothers (The Matrix Trilogy), its release is set for May 16th in the UK. Some of the tracks dont have side barriers, prompting me to speculate how the game reacts when cars smash into the sides. Will there be an invisible barrier, will the car rocket off the edge, wil it explode into a million bits when it hits the ground? Speed Racer should be out some time over the summer
