      Those are very good prices. No different than over here. I guess they have a retailer deal with Sanwa and Seimitsu. If you are a store you can get wholesale prices from them.

                @edmaul69 Oh wow! That's awesome. How did you go about modding the Wii controllers? Paint? Custom shells? Were the decals something already available or do you have a source on die cut brushed gold stickers?

                    @obsidianspider the brushed gold skin was purchased off of amazon. The black and red was created by swapping parts from black and red wiimotes. The bottom, the sd card door and buttons were taken from a red wii. You can only see a little bit of it from the first pic but on the other side you can see it completely across that the bottom is red. I want to buy a broken black wii so i can put on black rubber feet to replace the red ones. Just another stupid thing for me to try to make it more like the original famicom.

                      @edmaul69 It's really well done. What are you using for the FDS RAM Adapter? Does it actually do anything?

                        @obsidianspider my wii is modded. That is the 1tb hard drive i use on it. If i didnt have a hard drive I probably would have bought an actual adapter and modded it. Yeah i know that would make some people cringe. So i guess it could be called the famicom β€œhard” disk system.

                          @edmaul69 Nice. I need to look into adding a hard drive to my Wii. I soft modded it to add the homebrew channel a few years ago, but I understand things have come along quite a way in the last few years.

                            I was going over some of my bookmarked youtube videos and found the Evo Moment 37
                            An epic moment in game history for sure.

                            And he did it again here

                            Even though he lost that fight he was capable to do the same thing again. Crazy.
                            One thing is sure it does motivate to dig out SF3 again and start get rid of the old dust on the arcade stick.

                                      The case was 3D printed by a friend. There’s some controversy over the design and it was pulled from Thingiverse. When it’s done it should look like this. Unlike the NES Cart, this is not a low budget build.

                                        Why? Didn't look like anything I remember. Resemble an old handheld too much or something?
