DIY Nintendo DS Lite Rumble Pak

Friday, July 20th, 2007 at 8:40pm by ナオミ

diyrumble.jpgSure Nintendo has already released a new Rumble Pak for the Nintendo DS lite, “…but where is the fun in that?” says mod-pro Xyzzy on Instructables. Xyzzy’s mod is made from a hacked-up Pokémon Pinball GBA cartridge and a Nokia phone motor, and fits inside of your DS space-holder, so it will even match the color of your DS if you don’t own a black or white model.
The tutorial contains full instructions on how to make your own DS Lite Rumble Pak, but it doesn’t look easy. However, if you love a good modding project, and you’re upset that you can’t find a rumble pak to match your seafoam DS import, check out instructables for this and many other Ninty modding projects.
Thanks to Kotaku for the link.

    I think I’ll just fart out $30 and buy one after all

    What’s wrong with Nintendo’s? Just the color?

    well, it doesn’t rumble…it just give a smooth operator vibraton into your hand.

    Remember you can fry your DS doing this…Proceed at your own risk. I made one, and it works, but be sure to get a better cellphone rotor that really shakes the DS! Or leave the wire out for a tingly sensation!
