Wall-Mounted, Water-Cooled Wii Kicks Your Console’s Ass
« on: April 05, 2011, 11:18:31 AM »



You may have seen wii mods around the web for some time since it came out in 2006 but none of them are that pimped out
compared to this one wii

quote from the maker
Quote
The case is made of CNC-milled aluminum. Dual 22 cm coolant reservoirs housed on either side of the Wii UNLimited Edition feed cerulean-tinted liquid to cool the main console through a series of tubes. A water pump is housed at the base of the left reservoir. The front of the case is see-through, so you can see the inner workings of the console.

to make sure that the console does not over heat just at the top of it there’s a digital thermometer plus just by the thermometer you have the drive slot.As an added touch, the Wii logo was machined onto the aluminum side panels.

this is one thing i would have through Acidmods would have made first

It probably cost him easily $600 just for the metal/supplies and wear and tear on his tools

^this...

I thought the same thing, why? I mean I understand the 360 or the PS3, they get hot as hell; but why the wii? I've never heard of one not staying cool enough, I've never even seen mine get hot as my 360 does, even after 2 full days of gaming and streaming and not being put into sleep mode overnight it doesn't get hot enough to warrant water cooling...

Don't get me wrong, that thing is cool as :censored:, and looks fantastic, but why? I guess it's true what they say, some people have more money than sense. I mean I get the whole "to see if it could be done" or "just to do it" mentality, but again, why?
