A Wii on the go - even slimmer edition - Image 1


Benjamin Heckendorn is popular for bringing into this world the Xbox 360 laptop. He also worked on a Wii version but decided that he could take parts off the Wii machine to do a little redecorating. Well, for the most part. To allow other modders to join the Wii modding bandwagon, he released part one of his modding guide just last week. Today, he reveals part two.

Part two of his how-to Wii laptop project has him making some modifications so he could slap the Wii into a much slimmer case. He took most of the major parts of the board and made some changes to heatsink heights and wirings. Some people have made remarks that this could actually make the Wii run a tad warmer, but Ben thinks he could overcome that with some ideal airflow. So those who admired his Xbox 360 laptop modification is gonna love this version. It's actually as slim as a modern laptop.

Warning! Making any modifications to your Wii box will void the warranty. That said, the techie Wii users out there might want to check his detailed how-to guide.
