After getting my first Wii replaced, I turned it on for a few minutes to see that it was working properly and it was. I hadn’t turned it on until today when I decided to start Super Paper Mario. After about 30 minutes of playing, the Wii shut down. There was no power getting to the Wii at all. After unplugging it and plugging it back in, I turned it on and it seemed to work again. After five seconds of investigation, I narrowed the problem down to overheating due to the fan not working. Time to send it back to Nintendo.

From what I gather this does not seem to be a common problem.
