Remember when I had the 360 that had the red ring of death on Christmas? My son got Supersmash brothers for Easter for the Wii. It just happends to be the "small percent" that needs to be sent back to Nintendo so they can use there "hi tech equipment" to clean the lens so it can read the double layer disk!

His entire day wasnt completely ruined it did manage to read the disk once after he spend a good 30min retrying lol. He never wanted to turn the system off after that.

And by "clean" they mean replace the inferior lens with one that works.

I think the inferior lens is the main reason the Wii doesn't support DVD playback.

P.S. Super Smash Buttons is working fine for me. Sorry 'bout your luck though.:/

Man that sucks, interesting all the bad luck surrounding this game. I still cant play online worth a damn. Of course, Wacky wouldn't know anything about that.

I havent seen mine back yet. For the most part I can get it to work within 5min of ejecting and reinserting. Im just letting him play this weekend to get it out of his system a little bit before I send it back. Fun game though.

yes very fun game as I am still playing it and find it hard to put down the control pad except for when I got a laserdisc player yesterday and watched a movie on it. it was pretty good but I wouldnt want to take movies to friends houses cause of the size of those discs lol!
