" Q: I recently purchased Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Nintendo Wii. But when I insert the disc, I get a system error. What is going on here? A: Super Smash Bros. Brawl is the first Wii game to arrive on a dual-layered DVD. It is a massive game, and the extra capacity allows Nintendo to fit the whole thing onto a single disc. However, the Wii&amp;#039;s DVD-reading lasers have never had to flex their muscles for anything other than single-layered discs, and the game has unearthed a previously unnoticed hardware problem. In particular: The laser lenses on some systems are too dirty to read dual-layered discs. If you get an error message, Nintendo recommends sending your Wii to a service center for a special lens cleaning, and even foots the bill (including shipping). This will likely leave you Wii-less for a few weeks, but there will certainly be more dual-layered games down the line--so the best bet is to tackle the problem now. There&amp;#039;s also another possibility. Have you installed a mod chip in your Wii that allows it to play copies of games burned onto DVDs? Anecdotal evidence suggests that SSBB has problems playing on such hacked machines. Although Nintendo is predictably mum on the issue, some gamers believe the problem is really Nintendo&amp;#039;s attempt to fight piracy. If that&amp;#039;s true, it&amp;#039;s not very effective: We found that simply updating the mod chip&amp;#039;s firmware allowed a nonbooting game to play perfectly.
