I still have to sand some more, fix up the imperfections with spot putty, and put on some more pieces, but I thought I'd show what I have to give you guys an idea of where I will be going with this.

That's pretty good, actually. :o But how good are you with electronics? :wink:

I'd like to think of myself as pretty good. I havn't really posted anything here, but I've relcated a few cart slots and sold the modified mobos here on the forums... I also modded my friends wii-mote with LED's and such, and I've led modded 3 psone screens now. (all worked perfectly after ;) )

How much was it going to weigh? Was it going to have a joint at the elbow? I was thinking MEGAMAN! But you said Metroid, and I was like oh, ok. It looks neat. :)

Just thought I'd help out by finding some detail shots of the cannon.

Looking at the scale, yours is a bit long..

I think that some one around here has a physically broken controller from when it slipped and hit the wall (guts still worked). I think it might be CT fan, maybe whoever it is would sell it cheap.

When I first read the title I thought you meant an arm mounted cannon that fires wiimotes, lol. If you want to hurt someone with one, just play wii sports until your hands get sweaty and then let your wrist strap "slip off" You idea sounds great, do it, it's betteretter then wrecking a perfectly good wiimote.
