Hi.
Its been a while since Ive been here. Some of you may remember me. :)

Just would like to show what I have been doing for the last 2 years. I worked on this theme on and off with some help from Symular Syn abd Diddy81. Thanks guys. You rock.

Here is a video of it:


C&C welcomed. I hope you guys like it. I mainly made it for myself, but I decided to show it in case others might be interested in using it. If there is a demand for it. I will upload the file.

Important: Please read the description on the video page and leave a comment if youd like. :)

Edit: Since there is a want for it, I've uploaded it here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/8dbx7912wqqg...%27%20Visor.mym
Remember, I made it on a 4.XU Wii. Enjoy.

EDIT: Due to people having issues with 4.3, I have make a 4.3 version of my theme. Can be downloaded here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=UWO5OU8S

Wow I did not think Id get such a big response as this. This is great.

Ive uploaded the MYM file and added it to my First post.

All the info you need is in the description of the video, but Ill say it here.. I made this on a 4.1U Wii.

Thanks again for all the great comments.

Awww I have 4.2
I gotta find out If it'll still work
Or if I can convert it over to 4.2
It will work with all 4.XU firmwares, but not with lower U ones and it won't work with a E, J or K firmware.

Im not to sure about that I will have to talk to Diddy about that.
How can I make it so everyone can enjoy it? What should I do?

I like this a lot. Although I suggest changing the pointer to the aiming thing from the Wii Metroid Primes.

Also, Its a little disappointing it doesn't really work as well in widescreen. If I find the time and remember how to edit themes I might make a widescreen version, if you don't mind.

I also noticed the disk channel looks normal, instead of how it looked in your video, this is with 4.2 in both widescreen and not widescreen

humm the disk channel didnt work for you? What could be done to get it to work.
There are probably some "bugs" in it as I didnt have any way to test it other then on my Wii. I feel bad now.
Is there something I can do to fix this?

I made it on my 4.1 Wii. I can take a look at the wide screen problem. But if you want to do it, by all means go ahead. I probably forgot to add the files since my TV isnt wide screen. Sorry about that.

and about the pointer. Since you are looking through Samus' eyes, the pointer is her hand so it wouldnt make sense if it was anything else.

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
