Not sure if they have improved that system yet.  |
My first Wii had the video card crap out (artifacts all over the screen). I paid Nintendo to fix it and I had to re-download everything from WiiWare and Virtual console that I didn't have on my SD Card. It was no problem to log back in to the Shop channel and re-download things though.
The biggest loss was my Smash Bros Brawl save file. For whatever reason that particular game they restrict from putting the save file on the SD Card.
