I recently did an interview with Shank: A console-to-handheld modder, YouTuber and member of the new company 4 Layer Tech; The team who created the ForeverPak 64. It was impressive to hear the lengths Shank and his friends had gone through to reverse engineer the Wii and to make brand new products for it! I really think anyone who loves tech would enjoy this interview and hearing the behind the scenes perspective!
