i know this has been discussed before, but it was before i hooked my wii up to the net...

but what's the deal with leaving connect-24 on?

when it gets hot does that matter?

and how long does everyone else leave their wii's on standbye (with the orange light)?

I find if i leave a disc in there, when I come home from work and take the disc out, its hot.

This used to concern me, so i'd pull the power cord out. But now I just take the disc out and the wii itself doesnt appear to be hot.

If i pull the power out, i wont get Mii visitors in the parade.

I see little reason to leave my Wii on for Connect24. At least not until they start expanding the game I play.

yeah, i guess

but often when i DO want to connect, my wifi won't work for some reason, so if i leave it on, it always works for me
