I got my wii January 2007 and that summer it started making loud clicking noises with every disc it read.
After awhile GCN discs wouldnt read and Wii games would run slow. Not to mention the clicking was horribly louder than my speakers, so I stoped playing it for a good while.
I eventually had to send it in for repairs and now it runs much nicer though some games seem to still seem to have a loud vibrating noise, wich should be normal but it always makes me concerned.
Brawl is one that does it with audabile noises between menus and the like, but ya, nothing out of normal anymore, even though you can feel the thing vibrating quitet a bit. Still, nothing bad.

This is all with real copies of the games btw.
Im still kinda cuatoius about installing a modchip though Im pretty sure it'll be alright. Though Im hoping it doesnt go out again this summer as I think it had something to do with the heat and maybe the DVD drive disc spinner drying up.
Though after repairs they left the drive pointed slightly to the left, no big deal but kinda odd.

Well, I think I'll probly install a YAOSOM chip anyway xD

My Wii? Quiet, except for brawl.

I explain it thus (may not be correct):

Wii Sports - disc contains 300MB of data. Main engine fits entirely in RAM, and the only data read from the disc is a few textures and noises now and again. less seeks = less noise

SSBB - Epicly HUEG [sic] game. Data and music are constantly being read from the disc. More seeks = more noise.

I think it's pretty common for the Wii to be noisy. Mine's pretty noisy in Brawl too, more than in other games. It's difficult to hear from your recording, but I think mine makes pretty much the same amount of noise.

    the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

    That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves

    because self deprecating humor is important, as long as it doesn't turn into self hate. because you can't really make fun of anyone if you can't even make fun of yourself
