So, I decided what the heck, this many people can't be wrong, so I bought a Wii for myself for Christmas.  You just need to go where the economy is really bad to find them in stock, aka Detroit.

Last night I connected to the internet with the Wii to download Super Mario 3, but before I could do so I had to update my console.  Ever since then when I turn off the Wii, instead of the power LED turning red, it turns orange, and the bright blue lights around the DVD slot keep turning on then off again every few seconds.  Is this normal?  Or did I mess up one of the settings when I downloaded the update?  Or did I not turn it off properly? 

I apologize if it is a stupid question, but hopefully someone can share some insight.  Thanks.


The Blue light means you have a message.  The orange light means it's on standby.

Both can be turned off / changed in the Wii menu
