The Mini-Mote: Wii-Mote Modder Shrinks the Wii Down to Size
By Mike Payne
Back in December, the Wii Modder extraordinare DHRECK showed us his amazing HempMote Wii-mote mod that buzzed loudly throughout the gadget/gaming blogosphere. If you were half as impressed as we were, prepare to Wii your pants. DHRECK has created a miniature version of the classic Wii-Mote and nunchuck, the Mini-Mote.
The Mini-Mote is constructed from the actual parts of the original Wii-Mote and nunchuck, some modeling clay, power glue and a handful of household tools (if your household has a surgical knife set). The build of the Mini-Mote would have been a mystery, if it weren’t for DHRECK’s detailed instructions from first slice to finished product. When your Mini-Mote is complete and ready to rock, it’ll function with the same capability of the full-size version. You might be out of luck with your Wii MotionPlus, as it surely won’t fit this one. Any plans to mod that as well, Mr. DHRECK?
Check out the full plans to build your own Mini-Mote, and more on DHRECK’s finished model. [DHRECK]
