News Summary

  • A triplet of corroded and bug-infested WiiMote controllers were dug out of a box of e-waste.
  • After an initial assessment, neutralizing the battery acid and a deep clean of all the disassembled parts, it was time to give it a shot at reassembly.
  • An interesting idea here is to use the shells for a custom OpenMote board, which replaces the guts with an ESP32-S3-based system for more general non-Wii things around the house.
A timehonored tradition in the electronics repair business is to make many into one, specifically a stack of broken devices into one that works.
