Hacking My Custom Painted Wii!

[NikoK]

I recently came up with the idea to paint my Wii. I used gray enamel paint and used red anodizer for the buttons. I also stenciled in the Nintendo logo on the side of it in red.

It has Wii Menu 3.2 and a CyclowizV2 chip soldered onto the board.

i personally don't like the colours but you seem to have painted it professionally though.

I painted the Wii stand black.

zomg

Actually you could have made it more Punk, as the Nintendo logo is rough like some grafitti art, I'm thinking a sort of No More Heroes style Wii, with some cheesy wallpaper patterns. Oh yeah and some fluorescent green paint would have suited it.

All in all, it looks okay, but personally I think it's not "finished" yet.

Looks very nice and professional.Nice Job!

Nice, best I've done in modding is changed a few LEDs in my controllers. I'll be painting my wiimote any day now.

When you say "red anodizer", what exactly is that? Since I changed my Wiimote player indicator LEDs to green, I was thinking of making the home house image on the home button green as well. Would that be an option?

Nice One !


In the same Idea, here is mine:

As you can guess, I am pretty proud of it

Lol, it's on a paper towel

Here's mine:

(Blackberries take the worst pictures...)
Krylon Fusion Plastic Spray Paint and Hardcover Sticky Book Backings did the trick

Nice work on yours, NikoK, but i have to ask, did you disassemble the entire wii when painting it?

 

[NikoK]

I actually had an extra case from a friend and I painted it and then replaced it . Your guys wii's look way more intense though

awesome wii man, this is what my Wii looks like (right pic)

it's not paint though, it's a decal.

You three are really going to hate your cases once you move out of your parents' basements.

The Wii does not look good with any accent colors on the buttons or flaps, because it's so asymmetrical.


Nikok, upgrade to component cables, already.

Considering there are 4 custom wii cases in this thread and all of the owners love their wiis, we don't need you to discriminate our console mods so you can walk away with another post under your "belt". Maybe you should head over to your parents basement and get them to teach you to respect others things and keep useless comments to yourself.

And for the record, at the age of 13, I could love my case for years. No need to move out when I'm not even in high school yet. Go taunt others that could possibly care about your opinions.

No point in having component cables if I dont have component in is there

And you'll continue to be the only one to love your "wii" for as long as you stay in your parents' basement...

I guess there's something about being thirteen that makes you guys jerk off to these cases.

The rest of the world, however, has taste.

You all seem to have painted wiis Great job everyone.

 

[jalaneme]

oh dear, the flames are getting bigger now...

I guess thirteen year olds just have something in them that makes them flammable...

I find all the painted/modded wii's in this thread have been rather tasteful and not at all overdone. Being an adult with a house, a life, a job, a kid. I can tell you that a well done case mod/paint job just makes the console unique. No need to act like an asshole over something that only you seem to particularly dislike.
