My wii plays all games except super smash bros brawl

Do you have a copy of SMASH BROS BRAWL? If so, try it and see if it works.

Usually if every game is working EXCEPT one, it's a problem with the game. However, on the Wii, most games are single layer. Smash Bros Brawl is one game I know for sure is double layer. Some Wiis have problems playing double layer discs.

If everything is working OK including Smash Bros Brawl, I would return the disc and get an exchange for another one. You may have gotten a defective disc.

It may apear that your disk it ok, but it is indeed damaged. Trust me even when you cant see it, a game can be badly scratched

Hello,

New game or used game?


1.) New Game - its your system. Super Smash Bros is a dual layer game and it takes a strong laser to be able to read the game. You would need to get your laser replaced.

2.) Used game - possibly worn out. Check the back for scratches.

i have the same problem, i dont knwo how to fix it, and my other games work fine... but i think the disc dosent spin for brawl on my wii because i dont hear it sipnning.
i dont know how to fix it either

then try again if it did not another super smash brawl becaus they said not all of th ewii cds work ps if the other cd of ssb work then buy the original one

Will your game disc play on your neighbor's console? If it does not, then you might have a bad disc. Take your receipt and the game back to the store, they will exchange a game for the same title, with receipt.

Thanks for using the FixYa forums!

This is a common problem, Super smash brother brawl uses a dual layer disk and a lot of drives have trouble reading it. if you look on the nintendo website they are offering a FREE repair service for consoles with this particular problem

We had similar problems after buying Super Smash Bros Brawl. I noticed that the Wii could read which disc was in the system but could not load it in order to play. This seemed like a shortage of memory to me (but the error message does not indicate a memory issue). I bought a 1 gig sd memory card for the Wii and now it works perfectly. BTW the kid at the Best Buy store did not think this would work, but it did. Good Luck.

If you are not in the US, Canada, or Mexico, the game shouldn't work on your system.
