Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Wii Overheating...

I am thinking about getting a Wii, but I am worried about the Wii Overheating while in Standby mode. Didn't this cause the Graphics card to overheat, and lead to graphical glitches? Does the Wii Still have this problem, or has it been fixed?

You must have Wii Connect 24 switched off...  Hmm.



To be frank, i have my Wii on 24h mode ever since i bought it, that's about 14 months now. I can assure you, my Wii is NOT overheating. And i have never experienced graphic problems with my console.

Wondering

Fearing

Doubting. 

^well, the Wii will rarely if ever OH cause it uses so little energy

N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!

bet with *no one yet* that the combined first week of Monster Hunter 3 in america and europe will be 600k or more! winner changes looser sig and avatar for two months!

Yeah mine gets pretty warm, but I've never had a problem. Nintendo's really good about these things too, so I wouldn't worry about it at all. Also, I've had my Wii for 10 months I believe.



i ave had wiiconnec t 24 everyhour now since i bought it and no overheat for me
