It keeps the dust off of the console and prevents dust build up on the console fan and from getting into the inside. (mostly)

It is not needed but i like the look of the case and want to protect the console as much as i can.

I thought i would offer it to anyone who wanted something different from anything they could buy anywhere else

It does not get any hotter in there then it would in an entertainment center or even out in the open..

That cannot be true as you are cutting down the amount of free air circulating around the console. In prolonged use your cased console would be hotter than one in the open, no debate needed on that it's fact. As to the damage caused by the extra heat Vs the dust contamination is uncertain.

The front and back of the case are wide open with no glass on it, it's not locked in a perfectly air-tight case with no chance to breathe.

I have a small fan blowing back to front where my Wii is setup just for good measure.

Does the case come with the fan?

It does not.

I can say though, since i have my Wii in the case i have noticed alot of dust building up on top of the glass case, the Wii is as clean as the day i first opened it.

I won't be offering the case soon if i see no interest as I've seen so far.

Thanks for commenting.
