That's some crazy work there. I'm no expert in kickass, but that is kickass.

The sounds are the coolest part.

Its' so awesome to see so many people out there that are willing to put in the time for these custom system cases and such and then instead of keeping them, selling them to donate to a good cause.

thumbs up game community

b(^-^)d <--this guy gives you 2 thumbs

good to see gamers are more than just 12 year olds that call you gay on xbox live.

@Shiryu: Now I admit a World of Warcraft mod would be sweet too, but it will never come out for Wii.
No, seriously!

@VioletArrows:
That blue line at the bottom is because of the third-party stand he used for this.

Item is no longer listed :(

GenMan

The auction has already been pulled. eBay hates when people mention "mod" in the title of a game system sale, iirc.

Sekiria

That's dedication right there.

Batousi

brilliant! =D

GREY GECKO

Personally, I think this is his best one yet. His Zelda and Metroid ones are great, too, but I think the amount of detail and work in this one blow them out of the water.

Not only does it have the always-on LEDs like his other mods do, but this one also has flashing LEDs that work independently. And the sound effects from the buttons? Crazy awesome.

BPMβ

Eh, it's pretty good. I wonder when the modding community as a whole is going to move past blue LED lines.

VioletArrows

meh...do the lights strobe or something?

angry_poster

omg,it even makes me2want a wii...!

:)

steliosco

I don't know if the little brass plate on the side saying dedicated to shigeru miyamoto is a good or bad thing.

niacin

I wanna mod my wii too.. ever since I had the misfortune to scratch it badly. Stickers just seem a bit iffy though.

Glazun

The Metroid one was freaking amazing, and I don't think anything can top it, but this comes pretty damn close! I'd still love to have this sitting on my shelf.

Bauske

I actually prefer it with the lights on.

Awesome mod.

Handsome Fat Man

with all these mods going around, nintendo should go the microsoft route and provide face plates and other nifty add-ons.

ironice

That is one awesome looking money-shot.

Yes I said it! ;D

excaliburps

That's... a little over the top, but the the money goes to Child's Play so I guess that's fine.

SilentPredator

That's pretty nice, but the Metroid one from last year looked better. I actually bid $1,000 on that one last year. It's probably a good thing I lost.

omyard

Wow! Just...WOW!

Shiryu

Love the lights and base, but the un-illuminated Mario goes to waste.

Should I be scared that that sort of rhymed? :|

Pezdispenser

i can dig it.

MushroomBoy1022

*drool* That's freakin' sweet. If I had the money, I'd throw some to it.

DeRangedKaos

Wow. It never ceases to amaze, what the mod community comes up with. I used to think it was cool when my Wii would glow blue, but after seeing that it and other case mods my Wii just feels plain lame. Nintendo would make a KILLING selling this, even if it cost a $100 or so extra.

ca$h

Anyone want to purchase this Wii for me? :D

Continued great work from the Wii modder that has put this one and past ones together.

Lstormy10

Not that there is anything wrong with that!

liquid_kore

I would soooooo pay like two hundred fifty bucks for that.

El Patricko

I still want the Metroid one >.>

diablodevil2

Now everyone can know UR MR GAY.

liquid_kore

Hot.

Otacon91

it hurts the brain.

Raziel Dune

Hot damn, that's awesome.

Too bad they couldn't illuminate Mario any more though.

edb87

ShirtGuyDom

Looks awesome, though I don't understand why eBay would pull this, especially when it's listed for charity. Do they want to look like the biggest douchebags in the universe?

peAr_nectAr

@BPMβ: Yes, but then there's also the backlighting. I dunno. I'm just tired of most mods being taken to mean making it light up.

VioletArrows

No U R MR GAY?

Americo

@peAr_nectAr: I guess they're just keeping it real.

Applekid

OMG so hot! Wish I could make one for myself!

JediTilo

damn thats awesome. if only i had a job and was over 18 :(

psgamer92

@Bluecell:

That is absolutely fantastic. The sounds really are friggin' awesome.

PhoenixSS

Whoa.

KM91

Uber cool...
I wish it was "mainstream" cheap and easy to purchase ;0)
Why don't they make a series of themed wii covers...
All of you internet and wii accesory phonies and money makers why don't you industrialise something like that? (i'd do but i'm too fkin busy)

klainmaingr

Needs him running up the side of the Wii to make it 100% fail.

-MoarPlz-

It reminds me of being a kid and staring at the Christmas lights right before going to bed on Christmas Eve.

Orionsaint

Ha, can't file my taxes now. Was looking to get a big score off on spending money for the kids!
Dear IRS, I'd like to cancel my subscription!

I have that exact same Mario figurine, it comes with those chocolate eggs. (Sorry if I ruined the magic or anything)

OK, I waited a good 15 min for that comment to show up; sorry if doublepost.

Short story: go to [cgi.ebay.com] to see the Mario Galaxy Wii. It had to be relisted because the original listing broke some eBay rule.

MaxVest

+ Watch video

The item is still up, the listing has just been changed. [cgi.ebay.com]

You can find it through the eBay search, too. From the new listing: "We had to relist because of website link issue that is prohibited by eBay. We apologize for any inconvenience. This is the new approved ad."

MaxVest

Damn you douchebags at ebay!!!!

Fire_Mario

O_O nice

Draven

I give Nintendo SOA.

However, the Screw-Attack mod will be forever legendary.

Fyren

That is soooo damn awesome!!!!

valhum

It should spell "U R MR GAY" with those lights...

Magma

Blech. This guy bugs me. It still seems to me that he makes far more money than the charity does out of these. Only 15% of the winning bid is going to childs play. It's at $600 now which means so far Childs Play is only getting $90. A US Wii has an RRP of what... $250? Considering that I doubt the additional materials to mod it cost $260 dollars and the auction's not over yet he probably makes a tidy profit on these. It's a real shame the charity gets such a pittance as it just seems he's using it to bring attention to his work.

Odin

I wish I had an awesome wii like that... maybe Zelda though... any Zelda mods?

DarkFestim

@Odin: Every little helps though, it's still a donation. It's not like when celebrities do things for charity, why shouldn't he be entitled to a cut as well?

This looks fantastic incidentally.

TearsandScreams

Killer mod.

On a side note, I never saw the point of doing a game-specific mod, because you're just gonna play it once or twice and move on to bigger and better games but always stuck with that Mario Galaxy Wii.

unmarkedone

That's a friggin' sweet mod, except for when the lights are off, the LEDs aren't as bright as I thought they would be.

MORE LEDs! =D
