    Of course they won't, it's a bit ridiculous to think they would!

    ridiculous??

    hardly i have the console a week just had it set up on line surely they can see that when they look at this account!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 221 ✭✭Niamhf


    I'm assuming he downloaded them...if so you have no comeback...afaik...


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 2,503 Mod ✭✭✭✭dambarude


    What exactly do you want Nintendo to do? Just to clarify- I'm not really sure what you're asking, sorry :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,258 ✭✭✭✭DARK-KNIGHT


    all i want is for them to take the 2 games off my system and give me back my 1000 points? games were only played for 5 mins by him!

    They haven't a notion of doing that! Anyone could download games and say, oh, I don't like this anymore, I want my points back. You're just going to have to hide the wii remote the next time your nephew's around I'm afraid:pac:

    this would be an excellent policy to have.

    pretty sure any download has NO REFUNDS

    This is one of the reason "Parental Controls" exist :rolleyes:

    http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/wii/en_na/settingsParentalControls.jsp

    If your Wii console is also connected to the internet, you have the ability to place limits on the following online features, found in the "Other Settings":
    Use of Points
    This setting controls the use of Wii Points, which are used to acquire downloads from the Wii Shop Channel. If this setting is on, users will be required to enter the 4-digit PIN in order to use Wii Points to download items from the Wii Shop Channel.

    Problem sorted.

    what age is he and what age are you just as a mtter of interest?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    Well, if you'll forgive a shameless plug, you can get 500 of those 1000 points back if :
    1. You connected your wii to the internet within the last 30 days
    2. You have not already added a Wii Internet Connection Ambassador's ID to your account.

    Go into the shop, click on the Wii Connection Ambassador button and select Person Who Was Helped. Enter my Wii number, as it appears in my signature below. Then PM me your wii number (you can get this in the address book of your Wii message) and when I enter that in my Ambassador console you get a free 500 points.

    And yes, so do I. There's a lot to be said for being a shameless mercenary pr!*k :)

    he downloaded super mario bros, bros 2 and bros 2 the lost levels! could have ****ing killed him as i have an allstars cart! what a waste of cash!

    Did he download the original NES versions of those games or the Snes remakes that are on the Super Mario All Stars cart?

    They might be the same games but they're different visually. The NES ones are 8-bit, the Snes ones 16-bit.

    If he downloaded the NES ones you didn't totally lose out...:pac:
