One of Gen 1’s most overlookedPokemonhas been transformed into one ofNintendo’smost beloved consoles, thanks to an amazing fan project shared online.
Poor Porygon has been given the short end of the stick since it was unfairly blamed for the “Electric Soldier Porygon” incident in Japan, where anepisode of the animecaused kids in Japan to have seizues.
It was actually Pikachu who was to blame for the attack with the flashing light pattern, but it was the face of the franchise, soPorygon took the fall and was exiled from the anime, along with its evolutions.

Thefans still love Porygon, which means the little digital Pokemon’s time in the sun has come. The BigRig Created YouTube channel has made aNintendo Wiiconsole in the shape of the pink & blue ‘Mon.
Porygon Makes For An Amazing Nintendo Wii
The Nintendo Wii Porygon had a dark blue console in a pink shell with a removable panel forGameCubecontrollers.
Porygon’s two legs were created usingtwo blue Wiimotesand a Nunchuck. The neck is a black wire, while the sensor bar is contained within the head and is usable via the eye holes.
A Porygon was then brought into the system itself via My Pokemon Ranch connecting toPokemon Diamond & Pearl, ensuring a digital version of the ‘Mon was inside the console.

As the Nintendo Wii is incredibly easy to hack, it also had a custom Porygon Wii bootup screen, which plays everytime it’s turned on.
Naturally, the Porygon system is fully functional and willplay Wii games, though both of its legs are removed when the system is used, as they’re the main Wiimotes.
Porygon’s infamy has kept it out of the spotlight it so rightly deserves. Thankfully, the fans who grinded the coins to get one inPokemon Red & Bluewant the ‘Mon to succeed, even if it’s through fan projects that bring the computerized cutie to life.
