But the auto shutoff doesn't kick in for SIX hours which is roughly 12 times longer than it takes to download even the largest demo.

You realize that the controller continues to charge after you shut down the system, right?

Does it? Didn't think power ran to the USB ports when it was all the way off.

As long as you have the controller plugged in before you shut it down, it continues to charge.

Wario Land, Mario Clash, and that Pinball game say "Hi."

Most VB games are good. There just weren't many in total. I can't imagine emulation ever doing justice to the system though even with 3d glasses.

VB = play middling NES-style games and rape your eyeballs at the same time. GG Nin.

Just to be clear- I leave my 360 off unless it's in use. Always. If I didn't have a time limit (movie waits for no man) I'd have been here waiting for the demo to download and instantly playing. If I was to estimate, I'd say my 360 kicked off after about 100 hours of being turned on. I've put more hours than that into one or two PS2 games.

I agree, I really have been tempted lately to buy a VB off of eBay. It personally never bothered my eyes, and games like Mario Clash, Wario, Mario Tennis, and Red Alarm were actually pretty damn good.

I kinda regret selling mine. :sweat:
