Does your Wii freeze frequently?

I find it a tough thing to put a hate on the Wii, but I i digress. Upon renting Godfather a while back it froze 3 times within ten minutes (all of those minutes were turning it on and waiting for loading then pressing forward and wham! She froze...) and I did not think much of it. I rented Battalion Wars II yesterday (great game) and it keeps freezing aswell. I mean this is more then a common occurance to. In fact the third or fourth level (if you count the prologue) is un beatable because it keeps freezing upon beginning.

I bring this out now, because I hope to god that SMG does not freeze, and I don't know now if I want Godfather and BWII if their gonna freeze on me the whole blasted time.

No my Wii doesn't freeze.

It did about twice with the old internet channel trial version. But never again has it frozen.

mine froze once during a game of dbz

i accidentaly used an energy attack while jammed up against a wall causing the two characters to become fused and tehn my wii made a loud noise and frooze

Is it ventalated well? like i mean is it in and open space where the air around it isn't congested? since there is a fan on the bottom i put it on my wii box just enoughso that the bottom fan isn't covered while on its stand with the extra balance majiger.

Same here, my Wii has been flawless for the most part.

Hmmm my friend had this problem with his Wii as I recall. His would constantly freeze up as well. It turns out the problem was with his internet connection. He had a terrible router that kept messing with his Wii. I'd send him a message and he'd get it several days later. He then bought the wired connection for the Wii and it's worked flawlessly for him since.

Turn off your Wiiconnect24 for a few days and if it freezes up still, call Nintendo and ask them to repair it.

Mine has not frozen either.

Congratulations.

And yeah it might be the connection, although I have a good one and its right next door to my router. I got it the day it came out, so if it becomes a real problem I'll just send it to Nintendo. I need to stay connected cuz I play online with BWII.

I AM SO MAD RIGHT NOW.

I was just in the middle of the final boss fight in Okami (and it's one of those multi-phase one-or-two-hour boss battles) and MY WII FROZE AT THE FINAL PHASE.

*dies*

Mine keeps freezing right after I turn it on.

1. Has anyone else had such a bad freezing problem?

and

2. How do I fix it?

It has frozen 4 times in 16 months. The first 3 times were during Madden 08 during furious re-loading while I was sim-ing a season which didn't worry me. But about 2 weeks ago it froze during an Okami battle which is a little worrisome.

Mine froze once when i was drunk and knocked it off the shelf onto the floor, other than that its worked fine.

My Wii gets used very little. (man, that sounds bad...) But seriously, I hardly use the Wii that much and when I do turn it on to play a game it sounds like a bloody chainsaw. It sounds brutal, people mention it whenever they come over.

And the other day it wouldn't turn on. I had to unplug it, wait a minute, then try it agin for it to work.
IMO the Wii is quite shoddily built. It seems to have extremely low durabilty. I could see this thing crapping out onme within the year.

how would you know whether or not Battalion Wars II is a great game if you haven't had the chance to get past the first few levels? lol sorry, just had to throw that out there.

Mine freezes roughly around three times a week, I have to pull the plug out of the back to have it reset as the power on/off on the remote or console neither the reset will work. I don't mind too much because I get alot of play time out of it so three times is nothing.

sometimes yes

Mine would freeze often with Lego Starwars for the GC. Beyond that, it may have froze during Rabbid Rabbits, but nothing as often as SW. Try cleaning the disc, even if it's not dirty. And make sure your updates are up to date.

Yeah, i've found it does freeze from time to time. But not o discs. It freezess when i'm starting up or ending and VC game. The only thing I can do is unplug the console to reset it.
