This is amazing, and it's a lot smaller overall because of your trim. I left the AV port attached to my board so I didn't have to rewire it. I also like how your sensor bar mount pays homage to the aesthetic of the original Wii console. I let my front face be the space for all four Gamecube ports and use a wireless sensor bar. I isolated my fan and heatsink in their own cavity in the case. If I may make a suggestion, I would use a small piece of foam with a hole in it under your fan, fold it over on the sides and press fit it in between the fins of your heatsink. The rubber band may pop over time.
your case vent is both intake and outtake for airflow? thats bad, its just recirculating the same air inside case. Did you notice how the Wii originally had the fan at the back of the case as an out for airflow, also an intake at the bottom of the wii. your design has bad airflow with zero static pressure, which recirculates the same air for poor cooling. Also the Wii sensor bar needs a gap in between both sensors to function correctly. Your sensors are literally right next to each other, limiting your full range of motion to an even smaller length. If your just going to use this for gamecube games thats fine i guess... but you wont be able to play games correctly using a wiimote.
You did a really good job. to make it smaller you would just need a thinner plastic mabye and cut diwn the heatsink even more and put a even smaller fan and power button. For what you did, it looks awesome. Great work bro.
Is it possible to deliver power over something very common like USB C? I am interested in getting rid of the bulky power adapter but like my Wiis original shell so a full trim is way overkill.
how about I am also making a small wii, but this is identical to the original in case design, I have a doubt how I could adapt its power cable to usb type c since I have two nintendo switch chargers and I would like to feed it through that medium, thanks in advance for your work
It’s actually pretty easy to do since you would need a USB-C breakout board which you then would connect to the custom voltage regulators (PTH08080) this way you will convert the USB-C 12v to the voltage required by Wii
You could convert it to external drive. You would simply connect it to the console and then disconnect it when you don't need it. If I remember correctly, it's only one cable
I wanna do something similar but remove the dvd drive and homebrew it so I have space for all 4 GameCube controller ports as well as the memory cards, I like the idea of putting the sensor bar inside the console but with how close they are I'd rather stick with a third party wireless one
It might be similar in size since we use similar trimms but I'm not sure since I've never built it. I have to buy new wii console to modify since the old one died but I'm definetly going to build something new in future !
Hi, I love you're video's but why did you go threw all the pain of building this micro Wii from scratch even though the noldendo Wii micro (from nold) already exists and the build is really smooth and the end result is really good in my opinion( I've build one myself)? If you make it smaller it will definitely make sens but I will have to wait for the next video on the topic!!
I love making my own stuff. I don’t really like building stuff that someone else designed. I’ve also noticed that Noldendo Wii uses 6-layer motherboard and my project uses the 4-layer one.
Im hyped for the Wii Micro 👀
The wii nano is already cool
Thanks!
I think it’s the other way around

Thanks for the tips! You absolutely have some valid point there. Can I see your build anywhere ?

It’s better than some of the Wii portable airflows… “no airflow on some”
Still better than the actual Wii Mini!
You did an amazing job. 💜💜💜

Please make a portable wii. Also amazing video and very impressive.
Thanks! I might do the full portable in the future!
Wii mini: I'm i a joke to you
This channel:yes
it's like a mac mini
If you're only using composite, I would recommend using a 3.5mm audio/video port instead of the entire Wii AV port
enjoyed the video 👍

Yeah it’s possible since there are already custom regulators installed.
USB C has more than enough power.
i love it !!
if i removed the wifi circuit in wii will rvloader work?
If you'tr harvesting the whole AV port from a Wii why not wire it up for Component?
Hey man, keep up the good work love your vidd!
Thanks!
You could use a totally external wireless sensor bar but your solution is more compact.
I will use external sensor bar in my smaller build

Wow
I wanna do something like these but I want to reuse the DVD drive, but I don't know how I could re solder it somewhere

@@ManolloMancelli good Idea I will do some research about this. Thanks !

Is this smaller than the Noldeno Wii Micro?
I saw you talking about making a even smaller one. When? :)

Could you make me a wii mini casing that would fit a beelink ser5 propely inside?
So basically a Beelink Ser5 case that looks like a Wii ?
Wii mini: am I a joke to you???
Did you coded the motherboard or removed wii motherboard
No. It works with regular motherboard
@@ManolloMancelli can you make a tutorial to make it without wii's motherboard and only with raspberry pi 4
Do you sell the 3d printed case?
Nope. It’s available on my Patreon
this completely replace the wii mini

@@ManolloMancelli Thanks for the answer and I think you have a pretty respectable point!
I like this but I feel like there is some with the design.
Maybe îs perfect If have custom pcb
Why not use component video
It’s too much work and Composite works way better with smaller screens
if u know he 3ds i think you should make the wiids
Can you make a tiny ps4
At around 7 minutes your music is too loud
Who can build me one? I will fully pay!!!
Kingston USBS don't work
