Crazy Gadgets and Wesk teamed up to build the GameCube Nano, but it’s not just some emulation machine. That’s right, it uses a real trimmed down Wii motherboard and requires a wireless U10, NAND relocation, as well as an AVE-HDMI installation.
After confirming the motherboard functions, you need to assemble the custom PCBs needed for the build. Lastly, USB lines have to be soldered to their respective traces, and thermal epoxy to mount the Wii to the custom-cut copper plate. Lastly, you can pre-solder all of the Gamecube data lines to the Wii, and power wires to the PSU. It’s safe to say that this project isn’t for anyone unfamiliar with soldering electronics.

I would feel more comfortable if it was a mini [Raspberry Pi] of some sort instead of original hardware. I know the Wii sold a lot, but not a fan of damaging original hardware. Plus that thing was not engineered to run like that. Who knows if it is even safe and won’t catch on fire,” said one commenter.
