Making Your Wii Side Panel Look Better

Post by racketboy »

It looks like my top design complaint about the Wii has been [almost] solved:

Nintendo's side panel section look terrible with the door open as it is.
If I had a Wii, I would have Wavebird adapters in there all the time.

One of the best accessories for the Wii I have seen yet.
Let my legs shake me to sleep, and don't wake me when I sweat on my sheets.

That really does look nice.

Although the doors can be taken off if you intend to have some things plugged in all the time.

Yeah but then you have this slab of black instead of an all-white console, and any un-used ports will get dusty (especially if you have the Wii set up vertically).

I definitely want to get this! :D

Yeah, who's idea was it to have the plastic color inside the door be different than the rest of the machine?

Your right about that. Although I've never really played any GC games on the Wii that much.

But this does look really nice. Nintendo should take note!

This was an excellent idea.
