Does anyone have this issue? A progressively louder 'buzz' as the drive in the Wii reads the disc? I've browsed the web and it seems to be a common issue but one that doesn't often have serious consequences. I emailed Nintendo about it and got the following response:

I would be more than happy to address your concern. It is normal for some amount of noise to come from the Wii console, as there are various moving parts inside of the console. Additionally, the console may make noises as it's reading discs, which may become louder at some times than others. However, this is normal.
If the console is making extremely loud noises to where you can hear it over the TV, then there may be a problem with the console. You may set up a repair for your Wii console on our website (

So with that said, I wasn't going to worry too much but just the other day, I got hitching followed immediately by a black screen error while playing certain Guitar Hero 3 tracks.
I'm likely going to send it in for repair, has anyone else had to do this for this or any other reason?
