man i saw something online that i think is soooo cool but, they're not selling it, they're just going to sell kits to make it, and it's going to be extremely difficult to make
this is a nintendo wii. this does not emulate a nintendo wii, this is the motherboard of a nintendo wii shaved down about as far as you can do it, removing some parts and repositioning others, until it's 60mm square
@monorail i wonder why the wii specifically has so many people physically shaving the motherboard down like this. like surely you could do this with other consoles? maybe its just some weird way the wii is laid out on the board
@sudo_EatPant i have to imagine it's "facts about the pcb layout that i wouldn't know", combined with "easily software-moddable, huuuuge library (emulates everything up to the n64 and plays gc and wii natively), and sold like hotcakes so there are roughly infinity of them out there for experimentation"
@sudo_EatPant (also as i've just been reminded from another reply, "cheap as hell if you buy broken ones, and the thing that's broken is almost always the disc drive")
