I just registered my kids' Wii U and 3 DS at club Nintendo and had enough coins to download a free game from the Wii virtual console. First time I got to the enter code screen, then it told me To check my Internet connection under settings on the Wii u menu. I did and everything was fine. I have since tried multiple times, and I cannot even get that far. when I go to the Wii menu and click on the Wii store, it just keeps giving me the Internet connection problem message. is something wrong with the Wii store tonight? anyone else having this problem? my firs interaction with Nintendo after purchasing two of their systems and needless to say, I am slightly displeased. Thanks!

You use the Wii U eShop, NOT the "Wii shop channel".
Add me on Wii U if you want to settle it in Smash

Before you do anything, are the eShop and Miiverse working? Are any other online features of the Wii Mode working? If so, then it might be a problem with the shop at the moment, if it continues, I'd recommend calling Nintendo.

He's talking about the Wii Mode on Wii U, that's how you get the Virtual Console games. But just to be sure Legend, are you using the Wii U eShop? Or are you selecting the Wii Mode, and then going to the Wii Shop Channel? To get the Virtual Console game, you'll need to go on the Wii Shop Channel in Wii Mode.

yeah but they gave me a 16 digit code and said to enter it from where you get the virtual console in the Wii menu. I will try the Wii u e store in the meantime. thanks.
