    Rev Wii's Uses About One-Tenth Power of 360

    news via kotaku

    The hopefully non-prophetically named Singe did a little bit of research on Wii power consumption since the thing is on 24/7. Turns out that Nintendo's nifty new console isn't just light on power use, it's super light.

    Wii:

    - In Standby Mode: 10w
    - Idle @ Wii menu: 17w
    - Running a Wii Game (Test with Zelda / Trauma Center) in 480i: 17w

    37" Sharp Aquos LCD TV:
    - In Standby Mode: 40w
    - Turned on: 180w

    XBox 360:
    - In Standby Mode: 2w
    - Idle @ Dashboard: ~140w
    - Running a Game: ~160w
    - Playing a DVD: ~110w

    The consoles sexy, has great games, innovative controls AND it consumes small amounts of energy. GREAT!

    Someone should to something like this on the PS3. That must drain resources and energy like a bitch!
