I was kinda dissapointed that I couldn't find the green that we always saw in the days before the wii launch, but I'm pretty happy how this turned out. By the way, just a tip, Enamel paint works like a dream on plastic

Hey, what was that paint that someone used over the color to give a sleek shine to their portable or something? I forgot what it was...

Anyways, if I or one of you could find that out, I'd totally freaking do that w/ one of mine...

Awesome! What kind of paint is that? I know is enamel, but what brand?

Just generic Rona brand paint (Rona is a like a Home Depot) Any enamel should work just fine.

no... you forgot to paint the blue part green

I didn't want it green... That would have a killer job to try and mask off the surrounding area of the icon just to make it green... too much effort if you ask me

How much do you guys think I could sell this for? Here or on eBay...

Probably a good $65 or more on ebay, seeing as even the original wiimote isn't the easiest to find in stores now.

For the "shiny" look, were you thinking of acrylic? (Different person.)
