Broke My Wii

Our Wii has been out of commission for the last few months. There appears to be something wrong with the DVD drive. Everything else seems to be in working order. We can play any of our downloaded content, but the game discs won't load.

I announced tonight that I would be disassembling the Wii and returning this console to it's former glory. I have no experience in this sort of endeavor, but that's never stopped me before. I mean, how hard can it be?

Upon hearing my announcement, Julie quickly offered her dutiful spousal support.

"You have no idea what you're doing. You can't fix that thing."

Oh yeah, Julie? Well now I'm going to fix this thing even harder.





(And by harder, it's safe to assume that means running out and buying a new Wii when I've thoroughly busted this one.)

Now You're Playing with Power
