Hi, I'm new here and I'm not so good in buying console products, can anyone tell me the warranty for Wii Console, WiiFit and Wii Remote? I'm afraid that I have been conned by a console shop here in Prangin Mall, Penang.

After a week, my WiiFit cannot on out of a sudden and I spend it back to the shop, after 2 weeks it came back and the staff there charged me RM50 for the repairs and said warranty for accessories like WiiFit is only one week. In addition, I bought a battery pack for WiiFit and they said there is no warranty for it too, it's total bullshit as I know all electronic products have warranty, it's not reasonable to have a week warranty but at least 3 months.

So can someone please tell me whether am I conned?

PS: The shop is located in 3rd floor Prangin Mall (G Electronic & Electrical) near the 3rd floor steamboat shop, opposite Stefeno.

Check your accessories to see whether they are original or not. If those OEM made in China one you are out of luck. But I know most if not all UNAUTHORISED reseller will not cover the warranty simply because they are selling modded console that void all warranty. So you aren't conned if you purchase *ahem* modded console. If you bought from authorised reseller, it's your right to get warranty.

please continue this topic at Nintendo section , thanks

Live with it, third party battery pack got no warranty since they are from China without any proper brand or company.

You really should have asked them before you buy. Normally when I buy electronic stuff, I ask them about warranty then they will write the warranty period on the receipt.

By law I think every seller has to provide at least 1 month warranty on all electric and electronic items. You can check with consumers association.

Anyway most game shops provide either 1 week or no warranty for accessories. So I don't think they were really out to con you.

we don't have a authorized nintendo distributor in malaysia right?

Is it? I'm not very well told leh. If it's true than all the Wii purchased in Malaysia are not covered by local warranty OR all of them are modded?
Can any sifu here clarifies a bit because I may get a Wii in December for my son as Christmas present.

Is ur wiifit original or fake one? There is a fake or 3rd party wiifit made by china out in the market.

Thanks

Normally shop will give you 3weeks warranty. Keep the receipt will do.
But if hardware problem, it will need to pay extra charges i think?

good luck brother lol
