Wii glow length?

Ok when I turn on my Wii it glows for maybe half a second, not even. Then when I insert the CD it glows and then fades or dims. Is this all normal? Also how can I make it so that it glows all the time even when I turn on..

Thats all normal. Go to Wii Settings to set the light on all the time

Bottom left corner of the screen. Look for the word "Wii".

I wonder what the lifespan of the light is.

What do I put it under though? Bright, Dim, or Off. Well not off I'm not that stupid. I want the light on while I'm playing and as soon as I turn on my Wii I want it to stay on!

None of those settings will do that. There's no setting where it is on all the time.

Actually, you can send a message to yourself and never open it, then the light will be on when you turn the Wii on until you check the message. To send messages click the bottom right icon I think, you may need internet enabled.

Yeah, thats the only way to keep it on all the time.
Really though, you'll be fine with no light, it doesn't make much of a difference with it on.

Well if I did keep on my glow for like all the time. Wouldn't that kill the light faster? And I'm just saying I've had my wii for 3 days now but what if my light busts? Can I pay nintendo to fix it?

Don't worry about the light busting.

Nah, light won't bust. Not like your standard light bulb, which blows every half a year or so. Take a TV for example. Mines at least 10 years old, still lights up. My SNES still has a functional light for when the power is on, although the SNES itself doesn't work...
