How much would you pay for a Wii Laptop

Post by WTB360LABTOP »

How much would you pay for a Wii laptop if I built one? I was thinking about building one with my barely used Wii.

Chances are, no one on this site would buy one from you. We're all too poor, don't care about the Wii, and/or could do it ourselves.

And you have almost no information about how much other people will pay, either, as I think Ben is the only person who has built and sold one. If you build one and do a good job, you could probably expect to get at least what you spend on parts. But thats if you do a good job, and if there is someone that wants to buy it. The gameplay of the Wii doesn't lend itself very well to smaller screens.

That's what I was thinking, its not like a xbox portable where it could sit on your lap as you held the controller in your hands. You would have to set it on a table and stand back to play. I was thinking about selling it for $800, any thoughts?

As he said, if it doesn't look nice/perform well, don't expect to get a lot for it. If it blows our minds, it'd go for heck of a lot more money.
