Awwwww, I've been found out

[Wii_Smurf]

So my dad goes into my room and realises my Wii is ALWAYS on the orange light
So he asks me why it's always on Stand-By, And im like 'Incase I get a message'

And he goes 'Well it's costing me a fortune'

So I guess no more Wiiconnect24 for me at night

Anyone else been bullied into not waking up with a blue light?

I guess what I'll do now is in the morning before I have a wash, I'll turn on my Wii and leave it or while I have a wash [It'll be blue when I come back if I have a message]

How would it be costing him a fortune? It hardly uses any electricity/bandwidth.

 

[Retman]

yeah, it uses a tiny, tiny ammount of power

How is costing him a fortune!?
It uses the same ammount of power as a miniature light bulb while i standby (nintendo has said this themselves and it's true!)...why dont you tell your dad that before he just assumes he's right about this

 

[Wii_Smurf]

Don't you think im aware of that?
He's like 54, Lol he always moans. I hurt my neck and he blamed my PC saying my neck is always fixed on that screen which is not true...

If I told him keeping it on would help abolish Labour he'd listen lol

I also thought that it took up very little energy. Check your next bill or something to confirm.

 

[Wii_Smurf]

The power well that's not a problem but the fact that if your online provider only grants a certain amount of hours a month the Wii is always using it

I hate being restricted to a certain limit by my ISP. I am with AOL and they give you unlimited time online as well.

Good thinking, i have wireless but i use my next doors as it has 1 bar better signal then mine. My wii must be in a black spot judging by the signal strength of my router.

I really need a Wifi Adapter
I'll get one when I finally get a DS [No Money until I land a job]
