Nintendo Screwdriver Set for Wii, DS Lite, Wiimote, etc.
Binding: Video Game
Manufacturer: Silverhill Tools
Product Description:
Stripping screws on small electronics is a big worry. These screwdrivers are designed with that consideration in mind. Both screwdriers have a spin cap on the end, which allows you to apply more pressure with the palm of your hand while you are turning the screwdriver with your fingers. And, with the high quality steel we use, the tips will not bend or warp under pressure. These are both of the tools you need to open Nintendo hardware, like the wii, ds lite, wii remote, nunchuk, sensor bar, etc.

Gamming Screwdriver Kit
Good quality, shipping was on time if not sooner thasn expected. This set is for repairing mutible gamming consoles


not tri-wing
I assumed at least one of these would be tri-wing but both were phillips which I already have plenty of


Fragile and cheap
I got these because I needed to disassemble my Wii because it makes an obnoxious buzzing sound, but I needed a TriWing screwdriver. I buy this item, it arrives, and the triwing breaks on the third screw.

Unbelievable.


worked great for ds
Perfect fit no trouble here. To all with bad review you may not be handy, use with slight pressure so you won't stripped the screw heads. A must have if you want to open a Nintendo product. Did not test with Wii yet, no need.


Read this review first if you are replacing a Wii DVD drive
I purchased these screw drivers on March first and they were at my door by March 3rd. Fast shipping and I received a very small bitted precision phillips head screw driver and a tri-wing screw driver.

Purpose: I bought these because I needed a tri-wing to replace my Wii DVD drive.

Background: I'm a computer geek so I've ripped apart literally hundreds of laptops and am used to precision tools. (I worked for a computer company and was certified on all IBM, Toshiba, HP, and Dell laptops

Now, these 2 tools will work perfectly to remove the case from your Wii. The issue that everyone has complained about is when they use the tri-wing screw driver on the 4 screws that hold the dvd drive in place. These 4 screws are torqued down very tight to prevent the dvd drive from vibrating them loose and causing damage. I used a small magnetized flat head screw driver to remove these. In my experience, phillips head screws always strip when they are torqued down tightly. Using a flat head works much better for removing. It also gives you 2 chances to remove the screws if they start to strip. Magnetizing your flat head will make it much easier to put the screws back in. Just a regular refrigerator magnet swiped across the blade a few times will do the trick. I used these instructions before taking apart my Wii: [...]

Quality: These are better than my companion tools. Are they perfect? No. I never expect precision screw drivers to last. They get lost, broken, or altered all the time.

Summary: The low rating is mostly from people who used the tri-head on the dvd drive screws. Follow my lead and use a flat head on those screws and you will be just fine.

Customer Reviews


Works quite well
I wanted a second Wii setup so I could easily move my Wii from my living room to my family room to play Monster Hunter Tri without disturbing the family at night. I've opted not to plug the USB into my Wii for power (I'm using USB for a network adapter), but instead used the enclosed AC adapter. I've had no difficulty using it on my 52" LCD from 20 feet away. Very responsive and accurate once sensitivity was configured in the Wii settings menu.


A Nice green solution
Bought this to replace the wireless version that eats up batteries. I don't play my Wii as often as I would wish and it seemed that everytime I did want to, I would have to put new batteries into the wireless sensor bar just to play for a couple of hours. I cannot use the original Wii bar as my Wii is located in another room (bluetooth controllers- rock!) With this Bar, all I have to do is plug it in and start playing. No more wasted batteries.

While I only have a 32" SDTV for my Wii, I also enjoy the extended distance gained from the longer bar as I can sit back on my couch a play comfortably. Now I just need to get a bigger screen.


works
better ranger for the sensor. the only down fall (which would be for any sensor bar) is if sunny light gets on it, the remotes wont be picked up. simple fix curtains closed. other wise im glad i pruchd it. does plus into the wall socket only no need to plug into wii


Great component
This sensor bar is awesome. I plugged it in and was ready to go in about 5 seconds. I have a long room with a projector that I play Wii on, and this sensor does a much better job of picking up my remotes from farther away. Additionally, I bought this on Monday, and received it on Friday. These guys are great... I definitely recommend!


Awesome Wii Component
No batteries, no wires, better motion detection, thin and trim. It was automatically detected by my Wii without my having to do anything other than plug it in. It even has a easy disconnect in the cable near the sensor bar so you can unplug it to reduce wear and tear from being "on" when it's not in use. I guess it also protects the cable from being broken if someone pulls on it too hard. The power cable is normal length, so it must plug into a power strip in most cases. I would do that anyway to protect it just like all my other electronic equipment.

this sucked
it won't work inside of games it just stops working as soon as you leave the wii menu


JUNK!
I should have known this was gonna be junk considering the price. It even looks and feels cheap. It was DOA. Wouldn't even power on. There is even horrible english on the package. Nothing you read on the package makes any sense and no instructions either. Don't waste your time and money (you don't get refunded shipping). Spend a little more to get the NYKO sensor bar instead. That one actually works.


It works
After the cat decided to "play" with the original's cable to the Wii, I needed a fix fast. This does the job.

Customer Reviews


Not for all PSP 2000s
I purchased this with the intent of opening up a PSP 2000, but unfortunately it doesn't come with a T2 torx bit necessary for the top 2 screws for some PSP 2000s. However I did test it out on the the 360 and it does work fine in case I need to xclamp it someday. Overall decent quality materials with the tips not wearing down much if at all even when I wasn't being very cautious.


It's OK. I was hoping for better quality.
I bought this took set mostly for the tri-wing driver so I could open my Nintendo Wii and replace the disc drive. The quality of tri-wing driver isn't the greatest. I was afraid that I was going to strip the head of the screw driver itself. The tri-wing tip seems to be a little small for some of the screws and slid and strip some of the screws a little. The drives tip also looks slightly damaged after the ordeal.

It is hard to find a long narrow tri-wing driver that is good quality. I was hoping that this one would be better than it was, but it did the job. Just take it slow.

The little boxes where nice for sorting and storing the screws while working.


Wonderful!
I bought this set to repair games and Nintendo's portable systems. I haven't used all of the bits but the overall quality is much better than I could have hoped for. The tri-wing is nice and solid and works wonderfully for taking various items apart. Most of the bits are magnetized so screws are a little bit harder to lose.

A nice bonus is the spring-loaded screw tray. The compartments are easy to open and the sheer number make sorting screws easy for your more complicated endeavors.

It just works
Perfect fit for the screws on my Wii. Thanks to this screwdriver and a few youtube videos I was able to fix the Wii on my own instead of spending the money to send it off or even buying a new one. I would have given 5 stars but the screwdriver had a nice little curve/bend in it when received. It still worked fine, but I found that odd? I'd still order another one though. Actually I may some time in the future just to have a spare one sitting around.

Go for it!


It works!
This review is for the item bought from the seller "amermedia" and fulfilled by Amazon Prime shipping. I needed it to open and repair a DS Lite, and it got the job done. My niece is very happy that I fixed her DS. What more can you ask?

P.S. When reading other reviews, I realize that the product is sold by multiple sellers, and each may have different quality. This is the reason I list the seller in the review.


Worked as Advertised
Bought this product to combine two broken Nintendo DS Lite's into one good working one. Required the tri-wing screwdriver to open the cases and since warranty was no issue, I had nothing to lose. I had seen many other versions of this screwdriver where people complained that the quality was bad and that the driver just stripped the screws. This one did NOT do any of that and worked perfectly to get me into both cases. Was able to remove all the tri-wing screws with no issue. Was very happy with the purchase and it was worth it.


Triwing does the job
It is what it is, a screwdriver that is needed to open the WII.
Worked for me....


Does the job just fine.
Does the job if you need to disassemble a ds your kids spilled a drink on. It won't save you from this dreaded problem but it will get you into the case if you need to fix a button or pieces parts two together to get one working one! Smaller than you think. Easy to lose so store it wisely.
