    About the same amount of power as a night light.


    If I don't know you, and if I don't talk to you on the forums, don't send me a friend request. I won't add you and will not give you an explanation.

    It probably takes up the same amount of power as many of the immature pea-brains around here. Very little.
    Oh no... Wii suck again!

    According to http://www.nwiizone.com/nintendo-wii...er-of-xbox360/

    * In Standby Mode: 10w
    * Idle @ Wii menu: 17w
    * Running a Wii Game (Test with Zelda / Trauma Center) in 480i: 17w

    Meaning Standby 24/7 = 7.2kwh a month = $.72 on average per month
    Idle or Game 24/7 = 12.2kwh a month = $1.22 on average per month.
    ^^^ Of course playing a game meaning the TV will be on so you can add 100-400watts for that

    Yeah and save < .72 dollars per month? Big deal that's almost nothing. I'd be more concerned about the XBOX power 'brick' if I had it leaving and running 24/7. Imagine how much that would cost per month.

    All this excluding the TV..
