Yep. My Fat Lady is still King of Energy Wasting :)

Not that I would care though. My server and network equipment consume more power than my pc and PS4 and PS3 combined.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

So the Wii U is like the Toyota Prius of gaming consoles.

Ew...

I only leave my ps4 on standby when I'm charging the controller or something else. My ps3 on the other hand, doesn't give me the option, unless I disconnect it (very rarely).

Wii U takes less energy than what the something's limit or something was.

Wii U helps Save Earth.

Save the Earth, buy a Wii U.

My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.
