Wii owners help me find if this is normal or not.

Ok first i want to start by telling you this is not the first time i have posted looking for an answer to my problem. I bought my Wii the first day it became available and it wasn't until some months ago a doubt is not letting me play my games having the fun time i should get without worry. After taking a look athe downside of my game game discs i found that they have developed some little fine lines on the center of the plastic hub around the hole that touches the spinning motor and not on the actual disc part that hold data. To notice them you need to take a very close look and inspect them under a light buld reflection.

According to a Nintendo Rep as long as my games play without giving me error messages my Wii is ok. And he said that if the Wii were scratching my games they will get a very noticeable and non superficial circle scratch around. I would like you Wii owners to give me your opinion on this. I really want to play my GC and Wii games again just having fun whiout having to worry.

I know i may sound childish or dumb but i just want to make sure everything is ok.

Everything is okay. Unless a disc actually gets scratched, there's nothing to worry about. It already would've happened if your Wii already had the problem.JordanElek

the only game my wii has scratched is guitar hero legends of rock, it has a big circular scratch all around the border

but what you have is normal, don´t worry, play happy :)

Either you can be afraid and never play your Wii again, or you can wait for some actual damage to be done to the discs then send it in for repairs, or you can send it in for repairs now and see if they find anything wrong.

I'd go for the first option.

Isn't discs have plain bare plastic there anyways? so nothing important touches a motor that spins 1,000's of rpm per minute, also because your getting scartches there it cant get worse like the last poster said, because the laser carriage does not go there meaning its not scartching them rather something on the motor, the motor how ever cant touch any part with data on the disc for this reason.

I thought there could be something wrong with my Wii motor but at the same time i think i may be wrong.soulreaper-4

My Super Mario Galaxy has some wear and tear on it but it plays just fine.

I think i sound like a paranoid person but hey can you guys tell me if your games have developed this or not.

I don't check the discs :P, but my Wii has sounded like a .... I dont know severe buzzing since about mid 2007 (Got it at launch) it still works so who cares, you do know that no matter whats wrong with it you will have to pay the same fee to get it checked out? id rather let it blow up and pay the fee than send it in without anything wrong and pay the same amount....

The Wear and Tear is from me playing it a lot. It happens to PC Games too.

I was looking at this picture of the spinning motor and i don't know that it could be a problem with it. Could it be the form it have? I was thinking it could be a shap edge but in that case it will cause an identation on the disc which it isn't.

No. I'm saying I have those tendencies.

But I do think you should stop worrying and enjoy your games.

Use the laser cleaner. It works wonderful. Your disks will remain the same but you'll be more relaxed as it won't be happening again soonenrique_marrodz
