    The black Wii with the Japanese case could actually be a Japanese Wii, but flashed with the American Wii Menu which could explain why Wii Sports had an update since some files could be missing after flashing the American Wii Menu, but that might be a bit of a stretch.

    Fun fact about the first Wii in the video, you can usually tell what region a console has based on the update version in the top right of the system settings menu at shown at 1:10. At that time stamp, you can see that it says: 4.3U, therefore this is in fact a North American region Wii and hence why it read North American Wii and Gamecube games no problem.
    So you are most likely correct that someone strangely did a case swap on this Nintendo Wii with a Japanese Wii for some reason.

Because it truly does feel like there are more wiis with gamecube cover flaps than the gamecube controller cover flaps.

    I do have all the flaps on my Wii. In fact, mine is a red one; those were the Mario 20th Anniversary special edition models. They also come with red WiiMote+ and nunchuck. The sensor bar, cables, and PSU were all the regular grey though.

    I think the Buck Wii might be a reference to a character Eddie Murphy used to do on Saturday Night Live, called Buckwheat. The character couldn't quite form words correctly when speaking, so Buckwheat becomes Buckwee/Wii.

    The wii flaps tend to wear and tear over time of being open and closed. Often the hinge just becomes weakened and it basically just falls off from a tap

    My Wii WOULD have its flaps. I took pretty good care of it, but then my little brother one day just decided, that he wanted to trash my Wii. So he did. Never got any trouble, because little brothers never get into any trouble. I use an aftermarket Wind Waker Shell now, just because... well.. the OG was trashed ^^°

I had 32 classic GC games that i ended up selling for 700$ to build a gaming pc. but i got my Iso's its hard to get these looking good on a modern tv its 480p i mean like wish it at least pushed 720p. up scaling is a hassle man. I gotta get a crt tv with component hookups for it to look its best like its designed for it right
