Description

This is a send-in installation service for the Nintendo Wii Retro G.E.M. from PixelFX.co. Retro G.E.M. kit is NOT included with this service and must be provided by the customer.

Installation Service Includes -

Installation of Wii Retro G.E.M.

Installation of Wii Retro G.E.M. flex and associated wiring
HDMI port cutout
Console tested to ensure proper functionality

Console Cleaning

Exterior wipedown
Internal cleaning, including removing any loose dust/dirt

This does not include removal of tough stains or caked on substances (ultrasonic cleaning is available for deep cleaning).

Additional Services Offered -

Electrolytic Capacitor Replacement

Over time, electrolytic capacitors lose their ability to perform as intended. This can have varying effects on performance (none good). The electrolyte, paper and aluminum foil in the capacitor degrade physically and chemically over time. Aging capacitors can cause a wide range of issues and in extreme cases can leak electrolytic fluid onto the PCB (again, not good).

Motherboard Recap

This option replaces the electrolytic capacitors on the Nintendo Wii motherboard.

Install Customer Provided Housing

With this service the original Nintendo Wii housing will be swapped out for a new one provided by the customer. This option includes -

Tapping of screw posts
Faceplate Rebuild
Internal components transferred over to new housing
HDMI port cutout made in new housing

Thermal Pad Replacement

Thermal pads are an intermediary that improves heat transfer between two surfaces (in this case, the heatsink and chip). Thermal pads can break down over time due to aging and heat cycling, which can reduce their ability to transfer heat effectively. This service replaces the old and worn out thermal pads with new high conductivity PC quality pads.

Ultrasonic Cleaning

With this service, your console will be disassembled and ultrasonic cleaned. Ultrasonic cleaning removes even the most stubborn dust and dirt that a hand cleaning just cant reach.

Ultrasonic Clean Housing

Ultrasonic cleaning of console housing
Ultrasonic cleaning of console shielding
Ultrasonic cleaning of internal plastic parts

Additional Information -

Once your order is received, you will be sent shipping information to send your console in for the work to be completed.

Initial shipping is the customers responsibility. Please ship your console and kit with ample packing material. Shipping paid at checkout is how your console will be shipped back to you after the work has been completed.

Please only send the console and kit to be installed. Power cables, controllers, AV cables or any other accessories that are not needed will only raise the shipping costs both ways.

If a console arrives not working, you will be contacted and notified. Most things can be fixed and arrangements can be made, but in the case of a console that is inoperable, the console will be returned, and you will be refunded minus return shipping costs.

Turnaround time is usually within 2-3 weeks, but can be longer depending on current workload or if parts need to be ordered.

Is there a specific mod you would like that is not on this listing? Send us a message! We can customize any order to your liking, and adjust the price accordingly depending on what it is. We are always happy to help and look forward to working with you on your next project!
