Firstly I think i should introduce my self.
My name is Olly, The reason i use the username LA33R is because it is naver taken. OK... To the point...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I know some people are dissapointed about the blue disc slot illumination on the front of there consoles. I know i speek for myself as i was, but i got mine working. I found a website telling you how to get it to light up and this is what it tells you to do, and it actually works...

Step 1;
Proceed to your e-mail section of you wii, click on register and register some-one. After accepting at both ends send an e-mail from your wii to them.

Step 2;
Send an e-mail from the other location back to your wii, When it arrives do not open the e-mail, don't even enter the e-mail section otherwise the pulsing blue light your should now have running out of your console will switch off.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you follow the 2 simple steps closley you should have a nice blue light out of your console in NO time at all. Beware it does take a while for e-mails to come through.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

To be honest with you I think Nnintendo should make an update for the Wii that will create a wii channel so you can switch your blue LED light to... (ON/OFF/FLASH)

well done

ah well..... first time on the forums aint i

search?

What's that?

Don't be so mean. Welcome to the forums. A good tip is use the search button, people round here are grumpy and such. Anyway yes that thing does work well and i'm gonna do it

search?

Well, I could be wrong, but I believe, search is an old, old wooden ship that was used during the Civil War era.

SPAMZR0OR0! Its not a ship its like a hat and you put your hand in and pull out the thing you want.

Wow....You know you don't need to yell at every single person who re-posts something....almost EVERYTHING is a repost...

welcome to wiichat!
hey the only problem with that is that when you turn the console on the light goes off

Watch this. Its a mod to keep your light on at all times and a bonus feature!

Does that require WiiConnect24? If so, is there any way to get it to illuminate without WiiConnect24? (I can't afford it right now, no wireless router)

To go back on topic: If I could change the wii I would make the blue disc slot ligt on all the time even when the console is off and I would beef up the graphics to 1080i.

you do need wii connect24 to make it work the way i have listed...


i dont know how to do it other wize without takeing it apart and modding it

My light just came on whilst at the Wii menu........WTF?

Update?

Mine went off for the first time last night, I think it's pretty puuurdy

Skippi i have added you on my wii by the way and i know the like will only stay on in the wii menu but at least you can turn it on, any time you send an e-mail it will turn on... during a games or anything.

A lot of people have said how much they hate the fact that the Wii blue LED light doesn't come on during gameplay. I for one love the fact that it only comes on when you have mail or an update. It means I can wake up one morning, get dressed and see the blue light which gives me that sense of curiosity that I get whenever I get mail. I could then come home after school to see the light on again meaning I have a system update.

The blue light is a sign of hope and goodness, telling people that they have something new to look forward to when they turn on their console, whatever it is.

Yeah, definately grumpy old people... can't ask a simple question.
