I’ve made a lot of special modifications myself: Han Solo’s Wii

Published by Christian at 10:00 pm

So Darth Vader had an N64 in his TIE Advanced. Big deal. We’ve all seen the movie, and we saw Han Solo clear those wingmen out in his Millenium Falcon. How’d he do it? He must’ve thrown a Wii-mote or something.

I was actually hoping this would come around when we posted the Vader N64 mod the other night (you can check and see for yourself). j grayson stuck a Wii into his model Millenium Falcon toy, without having to take it apart this time. He used extension cables to put GameCube ports into the Falcon’s cockpit and on the opposite side of the ship, and he takes advantage of the Wii’s blue-lit disc slot by orienting it to where the ship’s blue burners used to be! Genius!

More pics after the break.

    i have the exact same toy sitting on my dresser!

    wow, its tempting to try it… maybe i’ll give it a shot when wii’s are a little cheaper. not that their really expensive right now, but there are tons of games that i need to drop money for…

    and i don’t want the only wii console that i own to be sitting inside a millenium falcon.

    no matter how cool that is.
