Which way do you wii ?

Well im wondering which is the best way to store my wii, with the console vertical it seems fine, horizontal (which Id think is best ? :confused:

) the disc's seem to take longer to load, how odd, whats the best recommended way to orientate the wii ?

I think the fact its always been advertised with the stand and displayed vertically, its intended to be used by most in that way

I'm yet to try it horizontally, but I really couldnt see why it should be any different performance wise.

Yeah id thought that, but thought id put it horizontal to try and make it less prone to going wrong (like a 360 or something,lol) but seriously it really does take longer to access the disc horizontally, like when you put in wii sports, by the time you access the disc channel vertically its ready to roll, horizontally the disc icons are still spinning and about2/3 seconds later its ready to go

When I wee, I do it agains't the inside of the basin so as not to make too much noise, but when I'm drunk I pee right in the middle of the loo so that it makes loads of noise!

I did have my Wii on its stand but I think it looks a lot nicer when its lying on its side.

have mine on the stand, have tried the other way too but didnt notice any difference on disk access. Only thing with laying it flat is that you need to remove the flaps over the Gamecube ports to use them.

oh and for the comedian... might wanna edit your sweary

My Wii stands vertically, although I had it horizontally at first. Just saves space vertically and all the text labels are vertical anyway.
