The Nintendo Wii is an attractive console on its own, although a bit boxy, it’s small and easy to hide. However, not everyone wants (or can) hide it, and one option is to customize it.
The easiest way to do this is to apply a skin to your Wii. It requires the least amount of skill and is also the cheapest. Whether you have an original Wii or one of the newer Nintendo Wii Blacks, the case will fit.
The skins are made of vinyl and should have a high quality print on one side and a low tack adhesive on the other side that is applied to the outer skin of the Wii and shows off its new look.
In addition to Wii skins, you can get skins for the Wii Remote (and nun-chuck); Skins are often sold with matching skins for the Wii Remote to match. You can also use an extra protective silicone skin on the Wii Remote
The Nintendo Wii Remote (or Wiimote as it’s occasionally called) can take a beating. Websites dedicated to injuries caused by it have been created!
The market’s quick reaction has been to soften the Wii Remote by offering silicone skins for it. This not only protects the remote (and its finish), but also furniture, lighting fixtures, people, and pets that also take unintentional bumps.
The best kits come with matching skins for the nun-chuck and main Wiimote.
They’re usually very cheap (less than $10), so there’s no need to not have one in all of your remotes, for the sake of your living room/bedroom, if anything. It will also combine them very well.
The newest controller on the block – the Wii Fit Balance Board can also be upgraded with a skin. A silicone skin has the benefits of keeping the board clean and in good condition and the skin can also help as a non-slip device due to the silicone material it is made from and also feels great on bare skin.
They have a lightweight design that is easy to install and easy to clean. They are available in many colors to match your Wii or general room décor. People have also found that, as a bonus, it prevents cat and dog hair from getting stuck on the side of the Wii Fit balance board.
