Gaming Wiiboy Color, a portable wii the size of a gameboy color

Just saw this yesterday and I thought it was awesome:



I would totally buy one if it went for sale!

I saw a video of some people progressively cutting down a wii motherboard a while back to make small portables but that is getting quite impressive.

I've stumbled across some cutting schematics to portabilize a Wii like that.
It's interesting how much they shaved and how minimal the Wii can be in order to boot.

Hello,

Considering the video ===> it reminds me a bit of NDS (size, screen ...), it might be great as a console ??

Wow that's some awesome ingenuity.

I see this project has a custom controller mapping program! How the heck can we get that for our everyday Wii use? I like motion controls for the most part but it would be nice to map some motions to button presses.

I wonder if the program this modder used is available as a standalone wii app?! I'm surprised no one else has commented on that.
