The Wii Sports game disc is mildly scratched as it is now, but nothing deep and/or serious. Every time I try and start it up, it gives me an error either requiring me to power down my Wii and try again later, or call nintendo support. It's late now so I'm calling tomorrow morning, has anyone else had any problems with the Wii? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

If it's the latter, have you tried playing another game, and does that work? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Once my dad comes home I'm going to go get Zelda Twilight Princess. QUOTE You say you got it on vacation? Europe > America holiday?

I'll send mine back once I receive theirs. At least their customer service seems to care about you, which is more than I can say about other Gaming companies.

I couldn't really do much in terms of gameplay, as my computer is kind of lacking in the "Good Parts" department, but Rapture as a concept is amazing.
