If you're getting disc read errors on a Nintendo Wii then try this first!

STOP! - before paying money to Nintendo or any other authorised Nintendo Wii repair centre, if you're getting disc read errors get one of these. A friend of mine asked me to look at their Wii as I usually help them out with other electronic gadgets when they are having problems, before opting for a more expensive repair I thought I would give the cleaning kit a try. The console I had was constantly attempting to read discs and coming up with the black screen with the Disc Error message, I tried every single game disc I own for the Wii (all of which are in excellent condition with hardly a mark on them) but got the error message each time after the drive attempted to read (it was making quite a lot of noise in the process) I was unsure if this cleaning kit would resolve the issue but for the price thought it was worth a shot.... and guess what, after using it just once the console now reads every disc and has been tested for over 10 hours of play and has not displayed the disc error message since. Give it a go, it might save you a few pounds!

I have had a problem playing Super Smash Bros Brawl on my Wii console, and the Nintendo site told me this problem was probably due to a dirty lens. As my warranty had run out on my Wii, I did not want to send it away for repairs, so cleaning the lens was the way to go.
I soon realised that ordinary disc cleaners would not work on the Wii, as the Wii only spins discs it recognises as games, and spinning is the way most cleaners work. So when I saw this product, and saw that it was an official Nintendo product, I decided to buy it.
This product has worked perfectly for me as one use has done the trick and my game now plays, this is a very viable solution for others suffering the same problem. The instructions are very clear and exact, so you know precisely what to do, and there is no room for error if you follow them.

I had a lot of problems with games failing to load until two or three attempts, so decided to try this product. It has certainly worked, no problems at all since. It comes with a number of changeable cleaning pads and should last the life of the console. Highly recommended.

Looked good but didn't work for us
We bought this due to having the error sign come up and thought it would be a cheaper option to try instead of buying a brand new wii. Read more

Great item
Gets rid of the dust in your machine. Machines stored near or on the floor get vaccum dust blown into them so need an occasional clean to keep the laser reading the game discs... Read more

Lens cleaning kit
None of the Major high street suppliers had heard of it, but Amazon had. Did not work but probably because my Wii had not been used for ages. Read more

Not always successful
This product didn't solve our problem, be aware that in some cases you may need to have a replacement lens and not just use a cleaning kit.
