WiiConnect24 sucks big time. Why the hell am I forced to keep my Wii powered 24/7 to have access to the Nintendo Channel is beyond me ...

 

 What's the problem with keeping it on? It costs you ~ 0.5 dollars a year

The Wii being hot all the time, thats the problem. It doesn't make any noise or anything but it's hot. And it also keeps the game dvds inside hot.

And actually the main problem is that it's pointless, I gain nothing.

"With standby connection turned off you cannot access the News and Weather channels. You have to agree that this is stupid."

No duh. You just turned off your entire Wii Wi-Fi connection and you can easily turn it back on in 10 seconds.

Erm no ... Standby connection turned off means that ... Wii has no Wi-Fi connection while it's in standby connection (console turned off - yellow led). But while the Wii if turned on ofc you have Wi-Fi connection. You can play online and you can access the Nintendo Channel. But you cannot access the weather and news channels.
