Happens to mine, if wiiconnect24 is left on

to solve this, i unplug it at night and then plug it right back in, the light goes red and connect24 is off. i do it this way cuz its annoying to go into wii setup and stuff every time i want to do some everyone votes stuff

There's an easier (and safer) way to do that. Just hold the power button... the one on the system itself... down for about five seconds.

Thanks for pointing that out, its helpful, but...

just for clarification, what's unsafe about unplugging the wii? I should mention I take the cable from the wii, not from the wall.

Well, I suppose in practice, nothing could happen. My worries are if the Drive is still spinning,or flash memory is being written to, when you suddenly cut the power, these could get damaged.

that's good thinkin, thanks.

So the summer gaming drought is upon us. so what games are we going to occupy ourselves with until the next good game which is around august. i was wondering what everyone is going to replay/finish/buy. and i was also wondering what game they are most excited for in august. (it doesnt have to be on the wii).

1. Finally beat MP2: Echoes. (still havent gotten around to beating it)

2. Finish SPM. (still havent gotten around to that either

3. when Paper Mario comes to the VC.

i am looking forward to Metroid Prime, Strikers, and Blue Dragon. how bout u?

I don't think there's much of a drought this year, on Wii in particular. Sorry.

1. (now) Finish MK:A (the Konquest mode and unlockable kreate a fighter stuff, anyway)

2. (now) Finish SPM (...)

3. (6/12) Consider buying Scarface, most likely will, then beat that.

4. (6/19) Finish RE4..again.

5. (6/25) Decide if this is FINALLY the harry potter game that is decent, and it really looks like it will be so far. IMO.

6. (6/25) Decide if the BIGS is worth it without online. Might have to hold off for online baseball, GC games fill this fine for now.

7. (6/25) If i do neither of the above, pickup PBR (not the god awful beer)

8. (7/10ish) Manhunt 2. Nuff said. Also, new potter movie, and book the week after, tho this isn't gaming related.

9. (7/10) Mercury Meltdown, since its a meager 20 dollars and i don't have a wii puzzler. Plus i hear its good.

10. (7/10-8/8) beat the games i haven't finished, probably all of the aforementioned, lol

11. (8/8-8/21) Trip to CA to see my sweetie.

then metroid. Busy summer for me!

Forgot to mention madden, most likely will get that, if the online is nicely featured.

1. Godfather

2. Zelda

3. Madden '07

maybe not the best, but those are my favorites, in that order.
