Sorry for your Wii, takkxyz, luckily this doesn't seem to have affected so many people as the Red Circle of Death thing. Or maybe that's because it was detected and fixed earlier.

I left my own Wii in standby mode for a few weeks after I got it. Although the temperature in my country is quite high (25-30C) I didn't get any problem. However after reading about the PS3 high power consumption I wondered about the Wii and found this neat little article:

After which I decided to turn off the standby mode, since it's boosting the console's power consumption quite a bit and it's pretty useless anyway. So I'm doing my part in saving the planet from global warming at the same time

This was my first post, btw, nice web site ^^

...and welcome to you., ThePeng!
