What % failure rate does the Wii Have?

[Speedy4545]

I am just interested in what % failure rate the Wii has.

I would also just like some good tips to keep my Wii in good condition so it does not break.

According to this, less than 1%.

Hmm thats awesome.

Do Nintendo only provide a one year warranty for the Wii? Is there anyway to extend that warranty?

Nintendo stuff never break.

Maybe NES's, but nothing else.

You don't need a warranty for Nintendo stuff. I've never known anything Nintendo to break, ever!

I have, but it might have just been through overuse, so it's Nintendo's fault for making the NES so great.

All I can offer is that my one Wii has not failed in any way as of yet, so my personal failure rate is at 0%. Of course my lifetime console failure rate is also at 0%.

I've had a few disc read errors, but rebooting the Wii always solves that problem.

There is a general problem with the Wii GPU overheating resulting in corrupted graphics (random colored "dots" all over the lower half of the screen).

Here's an example

Yeah but that only usually occurs when using Wii Connect 24 I hear, I do not use the online function with my Wii.
