About a month ago, my Wii began to have difficulty reading the brawl disc, bringing me to a "the wii could not read this game" screen within 5 seconds of entering the css. I remember reading somewhere that worn-out lasers have difficulty reading dual-layered disks, like Brawl, so I'm assuming that's the cause.
What I'm trying to do now is figure out how I'm going to fix it. I could:
A) Use a USB loader. Would require re-installing Homebrew, which I'm guessing would be a pain to do on an updated Wii.
B) Send it in to Nintendo. This part makes me a bit iffy, which is why I made this thread. I used to have Homebrew on it, but I deleted the channel in case I ever had to send it in to Nintendo. I'm not sure if they'll still be able to detect traces of it, so I'm worried that they'll void my warranty if I send it in. If simply deleting the channel isn't enough, what else must I do?
I appreciate any advice people can give me.
