Credit Cards Into Wii Slot, A Broken Wii At The End

We’ll need to dish out our credit card to top up the Wii points to buy retro games at the Virtual Console channel but for what we know, we just have to key in our card’s number and some confidential pin code to complete a transaction. However, not everyone is familiar with this process.
A mum inserted not one but three credit cards into her Nintendo Wii’s tiny disc slot after following the below advice.
“put in your credit card when prompted on the Shop Channel, and get the amount of points you want.”
Of course, no Wii points were awarded, the Wii gone bust and we got an angry lady in the end but this incident offers some light to create a Wii accessory for swiping credit cards. Probably, Nintendo can implement a credit card function in Wii 2.0.
