VC Games Have Stopped Working

[Spotnik]

Recently, after a few weeks of not playing, I went to play Blazing Lasers and couldn't get the ship to move up or down, just left and right. It kept going to the top of the screen and staying there.

Then I went to run Super Mario Brothers (NEC) and couldn't even get the buttons to start a game. No response.

Then I tried to load Legend of Zelda--same problem with Blazing Lasers, it just opens to the map and the character just goes--no control whatsoever.

I've tried reset. Nothing.

The Wiimote has full battery power and operates other Wii apps just fine.

Are these known to go corrupt after a time? If so they'd better have some easy way to reinstall them. The Wii Store just shows that I've downloaded them. No reinstall option.

So, I'm baffled (and a little bit irritated...) Any other suggestions?

if you still have the wii shop account, and it says that you've downloaded a game, it's no charge to download it again. just go to wii settings> Data> channels and delete the games that aren't working then you can download them again and it wont cost anything
