The Wii's drive is broken, and I assume it'll probably be cheaper to send it back to them, but how much will they charge for repairs? As long as it's around $75 or less, I'm good, I think.

Also, most of the screws on the casing are exposed from when I attempted to get to the drive. They won't refuse to service my Wii because of that, will they?

i just sent mine in, and got it back within a week. they were realy fast. mine was in warranty though. they changed the serail #, dvd drive, and mainboard with 3.3V installed. nontheless, when i spoke to customer service, they said that if the wii was tampered they would void the warranty and charge me $75+shipping.

here is the link straight from the horses mouth

    Getting banned from a Switch ain't a big deal... But when it happens, THAT is when you should do the chargeback for when you bought the system. Use it to buy a new one.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    If you get banned and do a chargeback for that reason, that may have legal consequences.
