Anyone got one of them case replacements? I hopefully will be getting a Wii soonly, and have been looking around at things- I sure like the look of the black Wii case replacements.

if so- how hard was it for you to replace the case? Are the parts quality, or does it have a junky/loose feel when installed? Everything still work proper?

Installation may take roughly an hour, as it does involves taking your entire Wii apart and putting it back together again using the purchased case. The plastic is pretty high quality, at least from what I've seen from XCM. Problem though is that non-white cases have high scratch visibility, especially with the clear cases.

Not worried about scratches, but am glad to hear about the sturdiness of the materials.

I was thinking of going with either a Black Knight II, or that Black Katana (Black Knight is matte black, no Wii logo; Katana is chromed black with a Wii logo that looks like it's been sliced in half, not bad though).

I'm going to get a matte black one when my warranty expires.
