    I'm sorry the screen isn't as big as it is in the thumbnail, my feet are big so the screen needed to be smaller so that I could actually play Wii Fit. This project and video definitely went off the deep end a bit, but I hope the final product is still enjoyable to consume. Thanks for watching!

    If you wanted to use the Wii Remote's Pointer with your project, you could have done it easily with some infrared lights. That's how it works: the Sensor Bar uses infrared lights that the Wii Remote detects with an IR camera. Just cut some more holes in your board, wire up some lights and you're set!

    I haven't been on my Wii in about 7 years and I could immediately tell you put the Wii Fit disc in the wrong way at 2:25. It was funny to spot that but I guess it made sense to do it like that from a filming point. But also at 9:11, correct me if I'm wrong. But doesn't the Wii NEED the Bluetooth module? I'm pretty sure it's one of those components that will completely stop your Wii from booting if it's not detected by the hardware.

    Anyhow, keep up the excellent work! You're creating things society didn't ask for; but certainly need! And thanks to you now I can finally use Nintendo as a scapegoat for my weight issues as a child! Who woulda known it was all because they never released the 'Portable' Wii Fit Board this whole time.

(16,8kg) in about 4 months, simply cause of how satisfying it is to do the Body check every day. This and calorie tracking made me realize i was simply eating way too much. and it's helped me put things in perspective.
    I've actually thought how nice it would be to have this setup be deployed in a bedroom or something without having to lug a whole setup there, this is actually something i'd be down to try and make myself, Cause i think you technically made one of the smartest scales ever.

    Last night, I suddenly discovered your channel while watching your video about the supposed portable GameCube. That damn render marked my childhood; I remember sending a letter to Club Nintendo LA magazine asking if it was real (the internet wasn't so common back then, and I was just a kid). I loved the video, although I must admit that part of its magic lay in the ability to read discs, but precisely because of that, it was just MAGIC. I understand it's not something practical to do.
    Now, watching this video, I want to say that I'm fascinated by your channel. You're very ingenious technically, and the work is very well done. Also, you have a great sense of humor in showing the whole process. Greetings from Chile, a new subscriber from here! 🎮🇨🇱
