Take it back. This seems like a problem with the machine. Mine booted right up without any issues what so ever.

You didn't buy this out of the back of someone trunk did you?

Well, good thing they are giving you a new one that they know works for sure.

Oh I'm sure. Actually I thought Nintendo was pretty stupid for not allowing
it to. Looks like I've got my first defect discovery from my first generation system. Damn this happens to me with every first gen I buy lol.
Oh well nothing major.:mad2:
