Will the Conduit over-heat my Wii?

So my Wii makes loud sounds when I put a disc in it (there's got to be a better way to say that). Some games are louder than others, GC games are typically less noisy. It's been doing this for quite awhile now, since Animal Crossing came out last year. First of all, has anybody had this problem, and is it a big deal? Do I need to get it fixed? I'm not having any loading/freezing/overheating issues at all. Just loud noises.

I am wondering, though, since the Conduit is really pushing the Wii to it's limits, if it will potentially cause some problems. I no longer have a warrenty, so I'd have to pay 70+ dollars to get it fixed. I mean, will it make my Wii overheat, will it explode? I want to know before I get the game tuesday.

My Wii tends to make strange noises occasionally too so I wouldn't worry too much about it. I'm pretty excited for the Conduit, but I don't think it'd be so freakin' amazing to the extent that it causes your Wii to explode. :P

this thread is probably gonna be locked, but who cares! lol

actually, i fear that, too. my wii is as quiet as a sleeping baby, but the conduit looks so awesome sometimes that i think that the moment i insert the game disk, it will scream, cough and die.

I highly doubt The Conduit will overheat your Wii. It's not like the game will cause your Wii to explode due to an overload of awesomeness. I wish the game was out already!

yes, the conduit and the summer time

Heh, I always thought my Wii was the only one making weird noises. Glad to see it's not just mine.

Thanks. Glad to know my Wii isn't the only one that makes strange noises. Since Brawl works fine, I guess it'll be okay.

My Wii's disc reader stopped working well and it was making a lot of noise whenever I put in a disc. If you start getting disc read errors, then you better send it in. The Conduit itself won't overheat your Wii, unless you play it 24/7.Kcdragon8116

Well I'm screwed then:P

youll know when your wii is overheating if it slows down or has artifacts. Every chipset has a heat limit, and when it hits the last cool point it will begin to slow down so it wont overheat. dont worry. Only time your wii is overheating is if you see artifacts or it takes 5 min to load your wii menu

What are artifacts?

What are artifacts?

artifacts or little pixels that appear on the screen and disort the video a little depending on how hot the system gets. It appears on defective wiis.

Notice the unussual green dots on the screen. Mario galaxy is more graphic intensive than the conduit so if you never got artifacts from galaxy then u wont on the conduit

ok thx. I don't have SSBB so I'll just have to see how it works. At least I know what to look for though :)
