I'm currently in the process of buying a black knight i-case for the wii, and I was wondering if anyone knew of any one or any site that could help me get my wiimotes modded for player indicator LEDS?

I'v found a site but its in USA :

I just wanna either buy the kit, or buy a premodded one (or two).

Also looking for black wii remote/nunchuck (chuckii style) casings.

Any help appreciated.

You cant buy a kit. You have to buy each part separately and build it all yourself.

I dont know if they have a "Radio Shack" over there, but everything you need is listed in the guide on that website.

What you’ll need:
A Nintendo Wiimote
A Triwing Screwdriver
LEDs (surface mount 0603) in Red, Green and Yellow
Soldering Iron and Solder
Desoldering Braid
Tweezers

Please Note:

You will only want to replace the three blue LEDs at the bottom of the controller. Do not add in an LED light under the A button. Doing this will only drain your batteries faster.

Got rechargeable ones, so not a problem... think I'll have to bite the bullet and send away for some. I cannot find one high street store over here that would sell 0603's... even maplins...

Ah well, cheers for the reply.

I got my 0603s on eBay. The process was fairly simple, the only issue I had was making sure the + and - all lined up. If your not too sure of your soldering abilities, start on the 4th one, so at least you won't ruin the remote for 1 player gaming.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah it works great but it's the obvious Ds factor you loose from it it's not like playing atari games on atari because Nintendo actually use to give a reason to buy their hardware

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Honestly Ken I actually have the hardware and it's hacked and works fine, prefer my phone lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Microphone is more sensitive, DraStic has a high res mode, screen is way better just overall a better experience
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I just like game consoles how they were intended to play if they have a unique enough reason to buy them anything else yeah just download emulation for it
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh and touch screen infinity better lol
  • HiradeGirl @ HiradeGirl:
    @Xdqwerty It's still on Play Store.
  • HiradeGirl @ HiradeGirl:

  • HiradeGirl @ HiradeGirl:
    Install before they remove it.
