Hey I just got a wii for Xmas, but due to the lack of stock around, I went the second hand option, unfortunately, the last person to own it set up parental control and I can't change any settingsa without entering THEIR pin, which I got no idea of, is there a way to reset the console to factory settings????????

If you can get into the settings at all there is a 'Format Wii System Memory' button. That should do it.

I see Sike is the USA word of the past few months, at least that I know about. I hate it. Hope it doesn't evolve around here. Can't you just contact the people you bought it from or did you go second hand from a store?

What?

I just hate the "new" fad word, not the people that say it. I have no real idea what you said really, sorry. I sort of do. I don't see what's so bad about what I said for you to say it's not nice.

Here's what I think you were trying to say....

"thats not nice, sorry i said it but theres one thing about that.... i am from U.S.A. and live there."

I know where you are from because it says such. I also know a person on the 360 who is from PA who says the same thing. You might not like "mate" for example, that's your opinion.

That wouldn't worry me in my situation. I'm an only child and my parents certainly wouldn't want such. Also I don't really see any of my relatives. Most of my friends treat things like crap so I would just go straight to eBay.
