Overheating and shutting down

Often when I'm playing Wii, the console will shut itself off without any notice. When I feel the Wii it is pretty hot, so I think it may be an overheating issue. Has anyone else had this issue? If so is there a way to go through Nintendo for repairs for this problem?

My friends Wii experienced/experiences the same problems.

In his case, the rear fan wasn't blowing any air.

This guy had the same problem & fixed it: blog.jonschneider.com­/2009­/02­/wii­-overheating­-and­-...
