Yay I'm 16th voter, 75% upright 25% flat. That's 3/4 in case you didn't know. Anyway I am an upright kind of guy, looks better, though I bought a charger stand which is pretty cool.
Link Q said:
Vertical looks cooler.
Quartz said:
No place in my cabinet for it being vertical.
Fishmon said:
Upright.
Andrew Rudloff said:
The Wii looks better Vertically.
CyberControl said:
I'm the 94th voter. Currently it's at 77.3% upright and 22.3% flat.
jskrdude said:
Horizontal. Stacks better, and looks better (at least when you have wireless gamecube controllers like me).
Nintendoof said:
Verticool. So cool.
JosephTheSquirrel said:
Vert yo.
Stinky12694 said:
Vertical, that way my dog doesn't break it on the floor and so I can put it next to my tv Also, ww, when are the awards going to be on?
BrothaZ said:
I keep mine vertical but it has trouble reading the disc sometimes. I hear that it's actually better for the Wii horizontal but vertical is so much cooler.
Wiiguy said:
Woot! Vertical all the way! Horizontal is good for Gamecube.
Tommy The Wii Man said:
Upright is so much cooler than horizontal.
shindrA said:
Horizontal as I have GC controllers plugged into the Wii. If the Wii is upright it will fall.
Scooby Jew said:
Definitely vertical. Horizontal makes it look more "real" and different from the way it looks in the magazines and what-not, but vertical is just the way to go. Period.
Col said:
I think the vertical restricts air flow. But I could be wrong.
Laura said:
Wish I could have it upright, it just looks neato like that. But if I have the gamecube controllers and card connected (and I use them surprisingly often) the thing has to be on its side.
Gonzo said:
The gray stand makes it look better.
eric ♥ wii said:
I think that flat looks ugly. But that's just me.
SSonic22 said:
Upright of course!
Super King said:
It fits perfectly next to my TV at school upright.
SSB4LIFE said:
Vertical for me (Upright). So far the score is 81.3% Vertical (Upright) and 18.7% Horizontal (Flat). YAY.
jez said:
I got charger stand too.
wiiboy101 said:
I prefer vertical, but due to my ex partners gambling problem, I was a victim of fraud. I found myself and my son requiring local authority help and were sent to a homeless centre. We had a small room, I set up my hdtv and Wii (not an expected sight amongst the homeless). On this information being leaked, every kid at the centre was in my room trying to get a go on my Wii. Some kid placed my Wii on an unclean floor face down and this resulted in deep scratches on the ATi graphics label and all down that side of my Wii. I was fmuing as there's clearly rubber mats on the reverse side or Wii to sit on. I'm now awaiting a house and have been temporarily placed in a city centre apartment where my Wii has been cleaned up and resides vertically next to the tv on a large dining table. Don't worry folks, we're ok and will be back on top soon. I just hate the waiting and the fact my ex partner still has my little girl in her care and she continues to gamble. The law doesn't apply to a female for some very bizarre reason. Oh I can get an open wi-fi signal at the apartment block and enjoy free wi-fi and internet ha ha.

I have one of those awesome gamestop LED fan stands.
Keranu said:
I've always had it placed vertically, but it would probably be better to place it horizontally.
DragonFoxCoon said:
I'm a practical guy. I can find more places to squeeze the Wii into when it's vertical. Thinking about looks alone, the Wii would look like some strange computer device laying horizontally.
i need a wiieww said:
I prefer upright, but then I have to have it vertical unless I want my Wii to be in the way. E.g be kicked around, stepped on. See my point?
KIMSIKOR said:
I thought about putting it horizontal for a bit but when I set it down it looked messed up. So I set it back up, popped in galaxy and away I went.
hi said:
Flat is better because it is easier to to put in the games.
Eman said:
Upright is the best look for the Wii, but having to put it flat due to lack of space is understandable.
Pandawan said:
The only reason I have mine horizontal is because when I lived at my girlfriend's house her mum would always knock it over, no goddamn respect. But yeah so now it sits horizontal because I got used to it. I agree it looks cooler vertical too.
JRAPOCALYPSE said:
Don't care about how it looks here, I keep mine flat and the laws of physics say flat because cd dvd players are designed to run flat (face down). No wear and tear here.
Go FIgure said:
Same as Quartz; doesn't fit my cabinet in vertical. Otherwise I would've opted for upright.
Master Foot said:
I have it horizontal because of my setup.
links said:
Upright looks way cooler than flat.
Droopy said:
Upright and on the left.
TheBuggattiPenguin said:
I keep mine horizontal but with the stand on! It helps me know which way the games go in and it looks cool.
Nova said:
I know a lot of people who have it horizontal. I'm surprised there are actually so little people here.
Roen said:
I had it upright, but changed it to horizontal, because it wouldn't fit the other way.
noneyaBswax said:
Upright rules. I'm voter #581. I use the Gamecube part of my Wii all the time and it never falls over.
Zippy said:
Vertical. Even though I have sometimes memory cards and gcube controllers it still works upright and it's so much cooler.
YellieBirdy said:
Mechanically it makes more sense to be flat. I choose flat.
Wii Freak said:
I would rather have my Wii upright.
Juan said:
It doesn't matter for me, but I keep it horizontal so it won't tip over while my mom is cleaning, or when I pull my extremely short Gamecube controller.
?simoleans said:
I'm used to seeing it upright in all the commercials and stuff.
ToTaLgAmEr said:
For those of you who have problems with the Wii falling over while playing Gamecube, just go buy a Gamecube extension cord for the controller, I have one and it works fine.
wiiwii26 said:
It looks way cooler upright but my Wii always falls over. I think that's why most people have theirs laying down if they do.
Wii Freak said:
There are a lot of people on this site who come to vote. 816 people already.
2008 said:
Wiiboy that's so sad. I really mean I feel sorry for you.
Rock said:
I like vertical. It doesn't look right horizontal.
wiimoteman said:
I'm the 910th voter and it's at 78.9% vertical, 21.1% Horizontal. Wiiboy101, I'm sorry for your plight. I sort of know how you feel because my house burnt down last August.
Me said:
Mine changes depending on where I take it and if I'm using the GCN controllers. At the moment it is standing though.
wowza said:
It looks awesome upright! It also fits better.
I said:
UPRIGHT all the way baby! It looks very cool vertical and it's smaller.
wii addict said:
Upright is the way to go. All around awesomeness.
wii67 said:
There's like 1102 votes already! That's insane.
kate said:
I've met a lot of people with it horizontal. Just because they always knock it over, but personally I like mine vertical.
wii luver22 said:
I love the Wii either way. But I prefer it upright.
Wiiphyco said:
I live in an apartment with 4 dogs! Vertical works for me.
bunnyrabbit said:
I love the bunny next to this box! Me and the bunny vote upright.
ZombieKumquat said:
Vertical. That looks way cooler and easier to put the games in for me.
wiimaniac said:
When my husband gets mad playing the boxing game he has knocked over my system, so now it's flat.
awsum said:
With my setup I can have it either way, but I still have my Gamecube so it's just easier upright.
wiiobsesed said:
It looks thin and sleek when it's vertical! And totally BLAH when it's flat. Vertical is the only option.
WiiNinja said:
I would say horizontal if I were to take it with me (Portable Wii Screen), but at home it stays vertical.
irulewii said:
Wow I thought more people would do horizontal. I am changing back and forth, but probably vertical.
SPMmad said:
Depends. Downstairs upright (way better), in my room on its side eh. It's better upright and my room is gonna change for my Wii.
Jubby said:
1202 votes, with vertical at 79.5% and horizontal at 20.5%.
Lt11 said:
I have it flat. My Wii kept falling, but it's on my table.
wiiwii said:
I really don't care what way my Wii stands, just that I have it.
WiiFTW said:
Vertical, only way it will fit in my cabinet.
Joshua said:
Mine is flat (horizontal) because it is more stable.
WiiNinja said:
This poll is interesting, but it's getting bland. Look at the odds: right now the votes are at 79.5 vertical and 20.5. It's pretty clear that more people have their Wiis vertical. I guess it's the "more official way" of placing it.
brendan said:
Vertical for me, Wii rocks.
Kawawachikamach said:
Easier disc insert when it's flat, but I use upright.
QJ said:
Many of my games have a 1/4 rev groove mark on them, I phoned Nintendo service, they said the Wii can get bumped easily when vertical and the laser will crash the disc. I had to buy a new Spider man 3, $25 so horizontal is the way to go.
Erica said:
Mine's horizontal because my dad's afraid my siblings and I will knock it off the entertainment center. If it were up to me it would be vertical, it looks cooler that way.
MrWii said:
I say it looks way cooler vertical.
mike b said:
Mine is vertical. It sits on top of my entertainment center and I have an ak47 next to it so nobody goes near it. It never gets any scratches.
Grant[[FerSure]] said:
Vertical ftw. Canny beat it! (Yey I used a scottish word ^__^ (Mostly cause I'm scottish)).
nintendo iQue said:
Mine is in the vertical stand. Classy.
blab355 said:
1686 votes, 80%/20% Vertical FTW.
abbas said:
It fell too much when I had it up vertically.
Glowboy said:
I recommend vertically, but every once in a while I come downstairs and see it laying flat, (little bro horsing around resulting in flatness).
Baronsilasgreenbac said:
Must be vertical for coolness.
DKX900 said:
Oh come on! Advertised as vertical, I'm not surprised 80% of us have our Wiis up. I certainly do because I've got a little gap next to my TV between the screen and the bookshelf.
CatsRock said:
Putting the Wii Console vertically is so much better that horizontally.
Wii Freak said:
2000 votes. That's a lot of voters.
Hot2Handle said:
I just want one! I'll figure how to place it when I get one! I'm more the practical guy and would try to find which way is better for cooling. Might only have place for it horizontally.
poodaddy said:
Yeah upright overall just looks better.
Skorp said:
Mine is flat because it doesn't fit upright in my tv stand. I'd prefer it to be upright.
Joewii29 said:
I've had it both ways but it falls over when I use a corded GC controller and it's much safer flat and can ventilate easier. I choose flat. I have it flat right now.
Tennindo said:
I like upright because it look better, but flat is safer. I take the risk of upright.
Lollerskater King said:
Lol Wii looks Mugly Flat but it works better. Why couldn't Nintendo make a stand 4 lying down the Wii on it's side? By the way all hail the Lollerskater King who Banished the Roflord to Rofland.
wii dude said:
Upright that's what it was made for, horizontal just looks awful.
Nova said:
That's an interesting story, wiiboy. It would be weird to see a Wii and an hdtv in a homeless shelter though. Hope you can get back on your feet soon (p.s having a side covered in dirt and scratches would destroy me too).
smashbro said:
I only put it horizontally when I play brawl with a gamecube controller. I keep it upright the rest of the time.
Asta said:
Mine's flat, laws of physics etc. Marketed upright for a reason since more damage occurs to it that way, wear and tear to the console and disks, knocking it over resulting in more cash spent on them- that's what they want.
