This is an odd question since I don't even have a Wii... Did you set up your Wii on its side, or on the little stand thing? All my friends have it on the stand, but when I get one I think I'll set it on its side.

I put it on it's stand. I have no idea why, I guess I just prefer it that way. It looks cool like that anyways, but putting it on it's side would look pretty awesome as well.

I put my Wii on it's stand. I don't have any reason why, just because. Also, I'd most likely lose the stand if I didn't.

Mine's in the stand, probably because that's the only way that I have room for it, and because that's the way it looked in all then press conferences and stuff when I was drooling over it.

On the stand. It looks like it takes up less space, there might not be enough room for my SNES or N64 if it were on its side, and it just plain looks cooler this way.

On the stand, but question:

By "side" do you mean so that the disc slot is horizontal? Because I think on the stand, it's still technically on its "side". The "bottom" is the "side" with the four little nubs for setting it down on something. Putting the Wii vertical without the stand, as your first option may mean, would be very dangerous for tipping over reasons.

I have it flat on top of my TV. However, when I brought it to my parents' house, I did indeed put it vertical, but in the bottom corner of the shelf where the TV was; tipping over wasn't a possibility.

I have it on the stand. That way I'm able to keep it outside the TV stand.

I have it on the stand, and I also used that little plastic disc that attaches to the stand.

Usually, mine is on its side for storage reasons. But when we have company, it shines in full glory within its stand.

Aw, isn't that cute.

I have it on the stand at home, but there's no room for it in the wii bag, so I put it horizontally whenever I take it anywhere
That disc is for the stand? I never knew that, I thought it was some crazy wall mount for the sensor bar...
I should get that sometime...

The disc helps keep it from tipping over--it sounds like a ridiculous precaution, but not when you're using GC controllers with cords. Use that disc.

I prefer to call it the "stand stand."

I've set up my Wii with its stand and the "stand's stand." I mean, it doesn't look as cool without the console stand, and it works better on my book shelf (now a video games-only shelf, where my Wii, NES, and assorted games and accessories are).
