I have wireless and my Wii is orange when off 95% of the time. I can download stuff no problem, and I am sure I can send stuff. But will my Wii be able to recieve a gift? If so I would like to sign up :D

The orange light just means it's on standby, i.e. still hooked up to the internet, etc. The red light comes on when you've held the power button for five seconds: it means the Wii is almost completely off, and is not connected to the 'net.

Oh, and if you can download stuff, you should have no problem receiving anything. You'll get an e-mail from Nintendo saying "such and such has been purchased for you, come download it whenever you want."
