    Funny thing is that the "horizontal Wii" is still backwards compatible, it just doesn´t have the hardware. The connections for the controller ports are on the board, but the connectors itself weren´t soldered in. If you solder them to the board and put in older DVD drive that can lead in GC discs, you are in the game :D

      IIRC, the RVL-101 variants lacked the ports themselves while the boards were identical between RVL-001 and RVL-101, meaning modifying a 101 to be GC compatible required donor parts; and later versions lacked SMD components as well, mostly resistors.

      Yeah, with the PS3 the PS2 games ran separately on its own CPU/GPU. So in their case they could actually just cut those from the system and save a lot in production.
      Nintendo can't really do that with the Wii cus spoilers, the GC CPU and Wii CPU are basically the same.
      Same with the DSi. The GBA hardware is already integrated on the DS as a co-processor that's regularly used in many of its games. Which makes it necessary to keep even on the DSi/3DS.

      @@gammaboost Yeah and it was to avoid corporate liability because even though I used that strap, 95% of gamers have an IQ of 80 and boomers especially (often their first ‘home’ council) have a tendency to believe that they need to volt that bitch like a football just to get the sensor to ‘see’ it often losing grip and hurling it at TVs.
      Which….in fairness, the Wii put most of the tech in the remote, not the sensor. So I guess it is still Nintendo’s liability. 🤷🏻‍♀️
      I also had an old ass tv for most the time I had a wii, technically it took 1 or 2 of the same mistake myself when I was 12 that I realized the error of my ways, and my ‘big box’ was still a big tank compared to the flat screens that were taking off at the time that are insanely fragile to Wii-Football.
      If it sounds like I am jaded, yeah I probably am, but I at least never had to replace a TV when I had my wii. So there is that

    The Wii-Mini was likely an idea conceptualised to use up leftover parts. Because the WiiU was out and the Wii did so well, they would've had so many components leftover that they could still repurpose for something other than repairs. In theory this makes sense because it would only need to do basic functions and would be very low cost to manufacture and sell.

    Some of the red Wii's are sought after as they came with a copy of the NES Donkey Kong installed that had the custard pie factory level added, something never included on the original NES cart.

      The PCB even has a unpopulated spot for a SD card and GC port! I forget if the SD card required additional SMD components but the GC port just needed a port soldered to the board and it would work.
      The optical drive sadly has a firmware that prevents reading GC discs but it can boot GC games via Nintendont on a USB drive. Probably SD too if you managed to solder one in. :P

    I wonder if future consoles will follow the PS5's design ideology. There's only one retail basis of the console, excluding the disc and digital variants as I'm only talking about colors, and that's white, with any color 'variation' being achieved via an official accessory, the covers. This more or less removes any limitations to availability, as all available cover colors are widely available, and are not dependent on the console purchase itself. Though, I'll be curious what Sony does when it comes time for the typical 'limited edition' consoles, if the covers will be hyper-limited to just those consoles, or if there'll be an official accessory release, or if Sony will do something absolutely whacky like bundle the covers with the game as an optional bundle. I'll also be curious how this affects the resale market, both personal sales (like eBay) and business sales (like GameStop), as a sale could include original white panels, non-original colored panels, whatever Sony does with limited edition panels, third party panels, or a any combination of these; I wouldn't assume prices would change too much from comparison of the items being sold separately, but strange things have happened before. Plus these panels are extremely good for accessing the internals, any fasteners can be hidden under the panels, it's honestly such a clean setup, and virtually, if not literally, any console design could be adapted to use this design ideology. I would also think this keeps costs down by some amount, as you're only shipping one variant of a large-package console, yet the higher variety of colors are available via small-package accessories, thus warehousing and logistics costs are cut fairly significantly when it comes to potential 'variants' of the console. It's a win-win for everyone, and potentially an even larger win for consumers depending on how 'limited edition' variants are handled. It's similar to the third party decal kits back in the XB360 days, when the XB360 variants were glorified pre-applied decals.

      They did that several times before.
      The OG Gameboy had Gameboy Pocket
      GBA had Gameboy Micro
      DS had DS Lite
      3DS had 2DS
      Maybe Wii Mini counts? Even though its a pointless console
      Switch had Switch Lite

      You gotta just go to town on it. Maybe paint the shell, deep clean the board with IPA etc. Did that for a friend who's a big Sonic fan with a really god awful looking one I got for free after cleaning out an apartment for a friend of mine before he moved into it. They left behind a wii, wii u (minus a working gamepad) and a 360. 360 ended up getting modded and reshelled.
