    I had downloaded half of the Wii ISO for Brawl and Super Mario Galaxy, then shut down my computer after pausing the downloads so that they could continue later.

    BAD.

    I tried to resume the download just now, and it just says "this file couldn't be downloaded."
    Such sadness! D: And now I've lost all of my points (I'm not a premium member.) after having lost the files.

    How could I resume the downloads or at least recover my points? ToT And I apologize if this was in the wrong forum- I'm a bit new. :p

    I assume you used a browser downloader. That won't work unfortunately, if you want to be able to resume after turning the machine off you need to use a third party download manager.

    We allow free redownloads within 24 hours of starting the first download, beyond that I'm afraid you have to re-accumulate the points.

    that's not true at all. Theres quite a few that we're still recovering, but theres plenty that are there and available.

    Seems like every wii game will not work for me either. I just signed up for premium too. Any ETA on when they'll be back up and recovered Loonly?

    nope, we're recovering them as fast as we can, but we both have jobs and theres hundreds of GB of them.

    Clicked over 30 wii iso and seriously, none of them are there. I'll keep trying, requested games weeks ago and still nothing there.
    Do you need a list of the 30 I've clicked of very common titles. Looking extremely odd..

    What's the point of taking peoples money for a subscription if nothings working? Surely you should stop taking paypal subscriptions until the service is available as people are giving you money for LOAD's of dead links. I'll let you know if I find one working link.

    Because Wii isn't the only thing we host.
    There's PS2, PSX, NDS and many other sections. Taking down payments would lose precious revenue that's needed to keep this site up.

    Just to verify NONE of the wii games are downloading, i downloaded goldeneye then went to the next and it said not receovered yet, so i went back to goldeneye for curiousity and same message game has not been recovered yet when and hour ago it was there fine. so i would say there is some server problems have gone through all the ones i have dloaded in past days and tried another 150 even the new added games have same message game not recovered yet.

    We aren't doing them in order of popularity, we're doing them alphabetically (excluding requests) and some games we just aren't able to get. There are currently 900 wii games uploaded, totaling 1.6TB.

    Thanks for the update. It might be your restore process or server hosting isn't working correctly. As you mentioned you're restoring them alphabetically, none of the links in alphabetical order on the first few pages on the WII ISO section are working for example.

    I'll leave you guys to it, hopefully you'll work out what's up.
    Cheers

    First off. thanks for the site. Obviously there are issues with the downloads. It will be fixed.
    I only suggest that the info is fresh and up to date on any site issues for all members to be aware of.
    This site is well worth it. I appreciate the effort ten-fold.

    ;)

    Sorry about that guys, I managed to mess up something last night before going to bed. It's back up now.

    As an apology I will get some Wii games up during lunch.
