Hi everyone.
With the launch of the Nintendo Wii just around the corner, will you purchase one?
If so, what are you most looking forward to about the system?

I’m not exactly sure where we got it, it was mixed in with other stuff in our toolbox. Also, when we made the video we weren’t quite sure what to call it. It turns out the accepted name for such a device is “nut driver”. A quick look at Amazon shows that they have a 5/32″ nut driver for a bit more than five bucks:

The Amazon one might be too big to fit into the recessed screw holes (I’m not sure about that though). There are some nut drivers at Wiha Tools that look nicer. Their 5/32″ nut driver is a bit less than Amazon’s.

Where did you find that 5/32 socket screwdriver? I looked all over town, and the hardware stores around me didn’t carry them, insisting that Nintendo was only authorized to sell the specialized tool used to open the cube. you guys obviously prove them wrong.

I want to see you put them back together. I always seem to have parts leftover (although they still work).

Are you sure grounded wrist straps are insufficient? What alternatives would you recommend?

uhm, excuse me, but using wrist straps wont do any good if the carpet is loadable.
