Is it okay to hook the Wii U to a power strip that gets shut off when not in use?

The power light seems to stay on for 6-7 seconds and I'm worried, I don't want to blow a fuse or anything in the power supply and I turn the power bar on and off quite often. Therefore, I moved the Wii U only to a second power bar that doesn't get shut off, got sparks when I did it by the way, which I know is just residual power but the Wii U doesn't seem like it wants to be completely turned off all that often and it hardly uses any power in standby anyway. Is this a wiser setup not turning it off?

 

My Gamecube and earlier are still plugged into a power bar as they don't seem to use any power when shut off (other than the usual phantom electricity). Is this okay?
