# Custom Water-Cooled Consoles The Wii UNLimited Edition is Perfect for Mario Party Marathons By Michael Hines | Published 2011-04-08 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wii-unlimited-edition References: [dvice](http://dvice.com/archives/2011/04/wall-mountable.php#7) & [forums.bit-tech.net](http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=179763) Modder Angel OD has given [Nintendo's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nintendo-switch-oled-mario-red-edition) newest console a badass makeover with his Wii UNLimited Edition case mod. This case mod turns the Wii into a burly, water-cooled console that can also be wall mounted as a sort of gamer achievement trophy. The Wii UNLimited Edition is almost three times the size of a regular Wii and is more than likely twice as powerful thanks to its added water coolers, which help to keep the temperatures down during intense gaming sessions. Usually, kickass mods like this are reserved for the more graphically superior consoles like the [Xbox 360](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/safety-feature) and [PS3](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rpcs3-overlay) that see marathon sessions of intense gaming. It's nice to see a modder turn his attention to the often-ignored Wii. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.6/10 - Popularity: 6% | Activity: 5% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/games) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Custom Console Modding:** Opportunity for modders to create unique, enhanced gaming experiences by customizing consoles with elements like water-cooling. - **Enhanced Gaming Performance:** The addition of water-cooling to consoles presents an opportunity for improved processing power and temperature management during intensive gaming sessions. - **Wall-mountable Consoles:** Wall-mountable consoles offer a unique display option for gamers, turning their consoles into decorative pieces or achievement trophies. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Gaming Console Manufacturing:** Manufacturers can explore the integration of water-cooling capabilities into console designs to enhance performance and appeal to gaming enthusiasts. - **Modding and Customization Services:** Modding and customization service providers can cater to gamers' desire for unique, enhanced consoles by offering water-cooling installation and personalized case designs. - **Gaming Accessories and Wall Decor:** Companies can capitalize on the trend of wall-mountable consoles by creating specialized accessories and wall decor to complement the display of gaming consoles as decorative pieces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Unique Cubic Liquid Coolers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minecube-360-ultra.md) - [Gaming Console Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mario-cart-coffe-table.md) - [Vibrant Celebratory Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nintendo-switch-oled-mario-red-edition.md) - [Pro-Grade Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sony-playstation-5-pro-concept.md) - [Custom Watercooled PC Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/o11d.md) - [Hand-Cooling Controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nyko-airglow.md) - [See-Through Cartridge Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modretro-m64.md) - [Gaming Console Cooler Docks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unitek-cooler-dock-pro.md) - [Next-Gen Console Customizations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/console-customizations.md)
