Here's mine. Clear Katana and Blue Whiisper fan. I kept the blue front slot to match the fan. The slot covers were also kinda warped, so they're not on. And I swap SDs often enough that that one would get in the way anyways.

How hard are Wiis to mod? New cases I'd imagine aren't too much harder than my DS case mods but ar ethe fancy LED fans hard to fit?

their pretty tricky if you want a real case mod not a sticker you have to dismantle your whole wii and put it back together again in the new case and there's a lot of screws to keep track of all different sizes.

I suppose there'd be a lot more than in my DS... I'm really tempted to do this though my parents would probably never let me do it (the only reason i got to do my DS was that I broke the hinge). A Black Wii would be awesome.

Would prefer a case, stickers are fiddly and would never look as good. Never opened up a proper home console before in my life though so not too sure of what to expect... I'll watch some disassembly videos sometime.

here's a video showing how to dissasemble wii http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8epujddQTc , note you need a special trwing together with a normal screwdriver after you've done that you just need to do the same in the opposite way with the new case

dealextreme had a bunch a while ago, I think they might be sold out but you can have a look.

www.superufo.com sells various replacement shells, but I've never ordered from them so I can't say if they are good or not.

    Sure he could be on cracked flooring causing the leak

    How much you bet delta going to be DRMd to hell and back
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @linuxares the dev just ends up at 0
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's no worse than if you pirated
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's probably better, because not all keys on key sites are stolen
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    plus piracy is not always an option
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i heard a related story for a dev actually
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    from a dev*
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    DRMs are getting stronger these days
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they bought their own game on a key site and checked where they came from and it turned out they were review copies he had given out by email to someone
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    *all* of them
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    no storefront I'm aware of (at least on pc) requires the devs to pay for the keys they generate
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    they don't lose money doing this, even if someone decide to chargeback
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so that seems to be a pretty common thing, i kinda blame the dev for that one though as they were giving out like 5 keys to someone just because they asked for multiple copies for review for whatever reason and there were multiple people doing this. he should've seen the red flags
