Hardware Wii Concerns

[megabug7]

Hi

Recently purchased a Wii

I just want to verify the following behaviour is normal.

When returning to the Wii Menu from within a Channel-Wii Settings/Internet - The Wii soft-resets itself.
Shows the Wii logo that also appears just after the health & safety warning where you have to press A during a startup.
Normal?

If connected to WiiConnect24 - is it normal for the top of the Wii to be a little warm?
My Wii is positioned flat - well ventilated.

Do the screens showing to put on a the Wii-strap and avoid things around you ect. occur with EVERY game?

or just Nintendo's?

That's it for now

TIA

Yep all of that is normal! I'm not sure about the wii-strap question though!

Every game, sometimes 2 or 3 screens >_<
Gets really annoying after sometime.

Agreed

Should be linked to the in-game save file - once you save it will no longer appear.

Yes, all those things are normal.

They probably have to put the strap screen there every time to avoid people threatening legal action every time they break something with the wii remote.
It is stupid, but they're just watching they're backs like everyone does.

The thing is that there's already a warning screen when you turn on the Wii >_<
They could have used the same screen for all the warnings, now there's a new screen for the Wii Zapper's compatible games and I'm sure there's one for Wii Fit.

Not that it's that important but I do find the Wii startup boring

Remember the Cube? or PS1/2 - I guess presentation meant something then.

But I'm being pedantic

When I return to the menu, the wii logos show up, but then it goes to the main menu. I only have to view the saftey screen once at startup.
