When I put a game in my wii, it says that an error occured and to eject the disk and turn off the console. I just bought DKC Returns and I really want to play it soon! Help!

Maybe the disc is inserted in the wrong direction switch it to the other side that will work.

You need to replace the laser in your Wii. You can find them online

If you keep getting the error below with all games

"An error has occurred. Press the Eject Button and remove the disc, then turn the Wii console off and refer to the Wii operations Manual for help troubleshooting."

Maybe something with hardware, or the batteries of the control. What error it says?

There is dust on the laser and needs to be cleaned so gotta send console back to nintendo.

the disc sould be put in (power button on top) with the label to the right

I'm having the same issue. Doesn't matter what game disk is in, after a little while of playing, the screen goes black with the message that disk can not be read. Eject disk and power off, then power back on and re insert disk. No error code is given. I just bought this console yesterday and this error has happened probably 10 times already. Wanted to get online and see if this was a common wii problem or I just possible got a bad one.

The official troubleshooting from Nintendo is-

"Error Occurred. Press the Eject button and remove the disc"

This indicates a problem with the Wii console and it will need to be repaired. Please call 1-800-255-3700 to discuss available options.

I used to have the same  problem and Nintendo said it was beause the optical lasers were not lined up straight. Send it to Nintendo and you will get it back in 3-5 days.
