Haha, that was kind of mean
It IS mine and here's some pics of the "Wii" cartridge slot mod
Well, that's that. I want to thank you all for the help.
Now when this one is finished I'm having a go the first Snes that I had problems with, and this time it's going to work damn it!
There is probably many ways and even better ways of doing this, but this is how I did it.
1. I Used a 2mm thick acrylic that I shaped like a frame for the cartridge slot opening.
2. Then I filed down the corners of the acrylic in to a squareish shape.
3. Widened the cartridge slot so the acrylic would fit.
4. I used four 3mm leds that I filed down on every side as much as possible to replace the corners of the acrylic.
5. Drilled holes in the case for the leds so I could wire them up.
Awesome! Very cool looking mod there, my friend. It's nice to see something new and creative, especially in a forum that's been running dry in mods for the past couple of months. Oh, and excellent game choice, too.
That Wii-slot mod looks awesome, it makes me want to take my N64 apart, get some acrylic, and try this out.
You should, I would like to see that
Why not just paint the middle white? Or middle/bottom?
Yeah, that could work. But I just remebered that I have a old damaged case that's gone yellowish laying around. Maybe I'll just paint that one and see how it turns out. If it looks good I'll paint the "wii" one.
