My Wii spazzed out on me! My lil bro put in a game that was really scrached up and it worked at first. Tehn i turned it on to get the game out but the Wii said taht there was no disk in there. It cant read the disk so I cant get it out, and when i try to put a game in it wont let me put It in. And we also rented the game from blockbuster so their gonna keep buggin us to give it back. (Its already a couple days late) SO if anyone could give me a link to get help, or just give me help that would be great.

I know that CD/DVD drives come with a little hole on the side that will perform an emergency eject if you press it. Does the Wii have one?

If it does, make sure your Wii is turned off when you do it. Also, don't use the emergency eject on a CD drive unless you have to. It's not good for it. ;)

OK here is one word of advice that I go by NEVER rent and\or buy a game that has scratches on it ussaly ends up something going wrong. Also my friend had a similar problem he had to send his Wii back to Nitendo to get it fixed

He meant you have to take the Wii case off and look at the CD Drive, if it has a little hole on the side, you need to push it.

Take off the white case around the Wii. Look inside. Find the CD Drive. Find a button on the side. PRESS IT ;)

Follow how they take it apart here:

Just pay close attention to screw and parts placement when taking it apart.

When you get to the drive, you should be able to manually lift the thing holding the disk (the round center piece of the drive) and just gently push it out.

If this doesn't work, get some closeup pics of the whole drive and I'll see if I can figure it out. Had do do something similar on an old iMac when someone put a mini cd in the slot drive.
