The WiiControl is one modder's solution to avoid overheating when WiiConnect24 isn't running a fan. An external LCD displays the internal temperature at all times. If the heat rises past 35°C, the Wii's fan kicks on just like it should have in the first place.

Here is a video of it in action as well:

Wow, that's ugly... But it looks a good idea!
GREAT idea but yeah its ugly as sin..
Insteadv'e making something as big and ugly as that which uses the USB, they should've made a USB cooling unit for the base of the Wii with a small display indicating the temperature...
...And whilst on the subject of USB and going offtopic, a USB mod chip would be something cool! :p
I should have a review of the XCM I-HOT ROCK case for the Wii which has the temperature read out shortly.
couldnt a firmware update by ninty just make the fan kick in at 35°C?
Nintendo can do anything with their console using firmwares, they can even trigger the fan to run constantly if they wanted.Quote:
