After a week of trying, I finally got my hands on a Nintendo Wii. After taking it for a test drive, I began the painstaking and somewhat frustrating disassembly process. I started by removing the Wii's system battery. This would be the first of many, many screws. Some are hidden and some are even sneakier. Next, I moved to the black cover that surrounds the GameCube controller and memory card port cover.
Come along as we go inside the Wii and see the hardware that makes Nintendo's console tick.
