OK, called Nintendo today. The repair agent walked asked me to try a few things, and when they didn't work he agreed it needed to go to them. He did say that the techs do everything they can to save the game data, so that's a hopeful thing. He also mentioned that there was recently a system update and was curious if maybe in our case it did not download properly.

I'll be sending it off via FedEx probably Monday (unless I can manage to get it packaged up and sent today). He said they'd have it back to me in about 2 weeks. So hopefully all will be well after that

Thanks for the update Duchie! Looks like I am right behind you... I can't get mine off till next week. I am heading out of town right now, so I can't even call until Monday. Good luck!!!

Well, our Wii finally arrived back today..... and the game is gone. Both DH and I have tech background and neither one of us can figure out why they couldn't just save the data off and then copy it back. Lazyness, I guess.

UGH! Our museum had all fossils plus all but 2 bugs, 2 fish and 4 paintings. All 4 houses had basements and I had completed quite a few series of furniture.

Anyway, I'll be starting all over. And that means getting a new FC and putting in everyone else's, too.

I'll probably start that tomorrow and when I get to that point I'll let y'all know my new code. Please add me. And any donations would be more than welcome!

Oh darn.....I'm so sorry you lost all your "stuff."

We have quite a few duplicate fossils around just for people like you, and I have a bunch of extra flowers.

Just let me know when you're ready.

OH NO! I am so sorry!!!! Now that DH will let me play with DIS'ers I will be more than happy to share whatever I have with you. My town is about 2 or 3 weeks old now, I don't have much but it's coming along. Once you get over the sadness of loosing everything, it is sorta fun to start over and do things in a different way, now that you know more. And, if you were like me and all your grass was gone, now you can save it and have snow this winter. If that is any consolation...

We called Nintendo on Saturday and I just sent in our Wii this morning for repair. They said they would "try" to save my old game too, now my hope that will happen is much lower. I was like you, I only needed a couple of bugs, fish and paintings to finish my museum. I was really excited about getting the golden fishing rod and net. My DD (that now lives in Denver) caught the bee for me, I don't know if I will ever be able to catch one of those darn things! I caught a scorpion in my old game but haven't been able to catch one in this game yet, but I have caught a tarantula!

Anyway, I am so sorry that you lost your game. Let me know about your new town info. I will be glad to send you whatever I can.

Finally got the Wii all set back up. What a pain having to reconnect the internet, resynchronize all of the remotes, etc. But it's all done and I have a new FC that I've sent to everyone, I think. If I missed you and you want to swap, send me a quick PM.

Got the new town set up. I drove DD crazy creating and deleting all kinds of towns, but we all agree we really like this one so we'll keep it. Our fruit is oranges, so we just need to get the rest, including coconuts.

I'll have my gates open for a while tonight, thought I might not be actively playing. Stop by if you'd like!

Congratulations on getting your Wii back up and running!

I just left your town, and you are right, it is very pretty!!

Thank you for adding me as a friend, it was fun going to another town... that was my first time! I brought you some coconuts, I know how it is needing those right up front. My town is only about 3 weeks old, but I will be glad to share what I can!

 

[Duchie]

So will anyone else who is off today be playing? I'd like to visit some other towns, so if you plan on having your gate open let me know.

 

[parrotheadlois]

We're going out this afternoon, but I'll leave the gate open for you. Take all the fossils and roids they're all extras.

See ya later!

I'm adding your new info now and will open my gates!

 

[Duchie]

Lois, for some reason I can't visit. I'm getting a message that there was no response

Keri, I didn't see your town on the list at all. I'm guessing I missed you becaue I couldn't log on until about 6:00 PM or so (CT). I'll check later after the dinner dishes get done and hopefully I'll find you guys.

 

[parrotheadlois]

I wonder what happened - I left the gate open. I'll go open it again - we're busy around the house, so I won't be ther, just give me a few minutes...hope it works Lois

 

[parrotheadlois]

FYI - Lois opened the gate (now), not Lovely

1762 7318 8016
same town as Lovely

 

[parrotheadlois]

OK, I think I figured out the problem. Our nunchuk needed batteries. I had asked DUHGreg to exchange the nunchucks before we went out yesterday, but I guess he didn't.

So, the gate is open - again - and Lovely is standing by waiting for guests to visit.

Sorry 'bout that!

 

[Duchie]

It's working great today - I was able to visit and do a lot of fishing and bug catching!

 

[parrotheadlois]

Take all the fossils and droid thingies too - they're all duplicates!!

Have fun

 

[TXTink]

Update on my new town... I got a pear!!! Now I have all the fruit, finally.

I tracked my old Wii coming in from Nintendo repair, and the tracking says it is due back here on Monday. I sure am hoping for good news. But, whatever happens I will have two ACCF's to play, so that's not bad.

 

[feenie]

I just got this game for our Wii.
It is so fun... And totally addictive.
I have a question... What are the "droid" things FOR?

 

[parrotheadlois]

We're going out for the day, but our gate is open so any of Lovely's friends can visit (tell me if it's raining when you're there).

It's a beautiful day here in NW New Jersey - go Jets!! (and Giants).

 

[Blue.Fairy2]

Sorry Duchie have not had time to play much lately. I have added you and if you want to visit just let me know and I will open the gates. I will be on all afternoon and if I step out will open gate for you.


Anything laying on the ground you are welcome too and of course feel free to take what ever fruit you need.
