Wii World 1-1: Super Mario Bros. mod
With Metroid, The Legend of Zelda, and even Yoshi-themed Wii casemods already out in the wild, it was only a matter of time before someone personalized their console with everyone's favorite mascot, Mario. BeerBellyJoe sculpted the plumber's figure out of clay, affixing him to one of the Wii's side panels before painting the entire system. Interestingly, that cloud looks nothing like the bush!
It isn't visible in the image above, but there's a pipe on the other side that doubles as a Wii remote charger. The front of the decorated base also has an extra USB port and an LED mushroom that lights up when the port is in use. Hit the gallery below for more shots or click the "read" link to check out Joe's guide on how to make your own Mario Wii mod.

Cute. Too tacky for me, though. Get rid of the giant Mario and maybe add an 8-bit Mario into the design, then I'd want it.

lets just hope his lens doesn't have "dust" on it.
it would be a shame for the manufacturer to rip all of that off during the repair.

Doesn't that void your warrenty, if you need to get your Wii fixed and send that in Nintendo is gonna know something ain't right.
