FYI, here is the error message I'm getting now:

We are in the process of getting more Wii tokens. Please check back later this week to get your token for this song.

Haha, I was right. But hopefully, they won't start blocking people who download the same song repeatedly.

You could just pick a different song each time.

Good. It's time to go purchase some Pepsi.

Up to a certain point

If you run out of songs just use a different e-mail address.

AAAEEEGHHMMNRRSWYY

HEY WHERE'S MY ANAGRAM

UncleBob · « **Reply #107 on:** July 20, 2009, 11:02:28 PM »

I'm suspending the Anagram contest until the Wii Points/Token thing is fixed on Pepsi's end. I don't want to promise prizes if I can't fulfill them.

From Twitter:
@pepsi Guys - the wii console problem for pepsirockband.com will be fixed within the next 48 hours. Sorry for the delay and the inconvenience..

Whoo! Hopefully, they fix it so we get Wii Points and don't really fix it.

Stratos · « **Reply #109 on:** July 21, 2009, 03:42:14 AM »

What do you mean by really fix it? It just gives you the points, right?

MegaByte · « **Reply #110 on:** July 21, 2009, 03:15:07 PM »

Really fix it by giving you download tickets for the actual songs rather than generic points. I don't know how Rock Band is set up, so I'm not sure if that's possible.

vudu · « **Reply #111 on:** July 21, 2009, 03:29:16 PM »

I don't think that option is available on the Wii, hence, why they chose the solution we're currently all taking advantage of.

Stratos · « **Reply #112 on:** July 21, 2009, 05:30:29 PM »

Can you get points again or is it still down?

vudu · « **Reply #113 on:** July 21, 2009, 05:49:41 PM »

Still down.

The Wii can do download tickets, but I don't know if it works for DLC.

BACK UP. DO IT. REDEEM YOUR CODEZ.

EasyCure · « **Reply #116 on:** July 22, 2009, 03:08:01 PM »

BUY PEPSI. BE APART OF A NEW GENERATION.

vudu · « **Reply #117 on:** July 22, 2009, 07:52:11 PM »

CHRIST ALMIGHTY

I spent the past hour entering 53 Pepsi codes into the website and then redeeming them for Wii Point codes and then redeeming those on my Wii system.

I really wish I had a wireless keyboard. It would make the third step much easier.

I now have 12,300 Wii points. Whoever I'm Secret Santa for is going to be REALLY happy this year.

For what it's worth, I'm 79 for 79 exchanging Pepsi codes for Wii Point Codes.

Stratos · « **Reply #118 on:** July 22, 2009, 08:01:53 PM »

So it's back up then? Good. *Goes and starts entering codes from work*

Wait...how does this work for Wii? Do I just click the songs I want from the list and they give me the codes?

Mop it up · « **Reply #119 on:** July 22, 2009, 08:16:04 PM »

I should really go buy some Pepsi, I haven't had any in a while.

Can anyone give me a list of all Pepsi products which have the codes? I'm sure I could go check the website but it is really cluttered and my computer really hates to load it up.

UncleBob · « **Reply #120 on:** July 23, 2009, 12:42:37 AM »

Caps can be found "under specially-marked bottle caps of 20 oz and 1 liter Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Caffeine Free Pepsi, Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi, Pepsi One, Wild Cherry Pepsi, Wild Cherry Diet Pepsi, Pepsi Max, Diet Pepsi Lime, Pepsi Lime, Diet Pepsi Lemon, Diet Sierra Mist." Also says something about fountain drinks in some markets. Says nothing about 2-Liters or 6-packs.

With the return of working Wii codes and the lack of a return of my Wii (it's coming!), I present to you, a new challenge.

The two games listed below are for the same system. They were not developed by Nintendo, but were published by Nintendo. The company that developed the games has developed several other games for Nintendo's systems through the years.

I love you all.

Stratos · « **Reply #121 on:** July 23, 2009, 02:38:53 AM »

LOL, Putting Virtuoso Ship? Is this a hint of a misleading tease?

UncleBob · « **Reply #122 on:** July 23, 2009, 10:14:35 PM »

154/155 so far - the only one I've lost is the one I accidentally hit the wrong button.... whoo!

Mop it up · « **Reply #123 on:** July 25, 2009, 01:38:53 AM »

Now that your system is fixed, will this be the last code giveaway?

Not that I have any idea what it is...

UncleBob · « **Reply #124 on:** July 25, 2009, 01:47:40 AM »

I might give a few more away here and there, just for fun.
I must admit, I was mistaken in my last puzzle - the two games (both for the same system) were developed by two different companies. Horribly sorry about that.

A few hints: the games are cartridge based.
You probably haven't played them - they were only released in Japan (the names are in English though).
You probably haven't played the system they were released on - although the system *was* released in the US.
The entire system was emulated in a GameCube game that you probably didn't play either. If you did, I'm sorry...
