Nintendo Spotting – Hemp-Mote Edition

Thursday, December 11th, 2008 at 3:16pm by Jake

This amazing Wii Remote/Nunchuk mod comes from DHRECK. Apparently the pair is 100% playable and uses all original remote and nunchuk internal guts. The outer casing was made with 3 different kinds of “hemp” string. Be sure to hit the jump for more images.  

Greatest controller mod of 2008? I think so.

    My Wiimotes are all covered in “hemp” too. :D

    Why’s hemp in quotes? It’s a kind of rope, it’s not like you can smoke it.

    NOW you tell me I can’t smoke it….’cough’ ‘cough’.

  6. Jake says...

    Since when do quoted terms mean “smokable”?

  7. Fuzz says...

    Geez, you guys are nerds.

    Looks like an ancient artifact from the gaming world.

    I bet it’s a bitch to change batteries.

    Pass the remote!

    ^ Tell me about it!

    I would love to have a set of these. I’d rather have a encasing to wrap around the original white plastic case instead of just internal guts floating around inside, but cool nevertheless.

    Why hippie, why?

    That looks more like a craft project than a gaming device.

    dude i already have a few of these controllers look at my name. it’s left overs from “harvest”. get it i was emphasising that word, but i guess that bothers the english professors out there. we shouldn’t critique grammer on a forum that’s stupid, lol, lmfao, imo…..i bet you’ve used crap like that somewhere in some post or some email, so shut up.

  15. peshue says...

    Yeah; “proper grammer” What good, is that for.
