nintendo told me that having my wii overheat due to a diffective heatsinks was slim chance to none. i had a better chance of being struck by lightning the man said. it cant be all the systems can it? and if i had a problem with my gpu wouldnt i had noticed it when playing zelda or anyother game? how does a person know when the heatsink is messed up? i do not know....could this whole thing be a little over exagerated? i dont want my trail to be and discover i have a problem with my system.

there is a product at gamestop that will keep it cool. its the wii intercooler, its clear and has a pretty cool light on it. I would recommend getting that.

i guess you can tell if it doesn't burn your hand at the touch. i heard that if its warm, its not overheating

I heard it has something to do with leaving WiiConnect on all the time and may cause your Wii to overheat. Only a few people so far have reported it, although the case is quite rare considering that only a small percentage have said that their Wii's overheating.

I never had that problem, but I never played it for that long!

If you don't keep it on for 1 Week or 2 it with out turning it off it won't over heat...
