I am just curious-has anyone ever put in a disc into the wii upside down? What happens if you do?
I almost did at the start-i had to put a sticky label on the side to remind me

It creates a vortex leading to a parallel world, with no way of coming back.

In all seriousness, who would be that stupid, and I bet it just says "Error reading disc".

I just think of the larger side to be the side that reads the disc. I'm not even sure it would accept the disc if it was put in the wrong way. Dunno.

Yeah i've done it a couple of times.. No biggy.... I cant remember specifics (dont know if it spat it out or just said it couldnt read the disk) but it does take a little for the wii to respond..

But dont stress.

if you place the dvd upside-down the laser will try to read it backwards. you'll start the game on the last level/final boss stage, and because you have no accumulated power or weapons you die immediately. sucks really.

I haven't done it...I try to remember now that the bigger side reads the dvds so therefore i need to put the data side that way
I was just curious what happens, but some peoples responses are laughable...
