Star Wars Wii
Anyone up for a gigantic nerdgasm? This Star Wars themed Wii should get the job done! It looks quite impressive, and whoever made this has clearly put a lot of effort in it. It’s for sale on eBay, with a starting price of $500, and it comes with a copy of Star Wars: The Force [...]
Real life Mario Kart
This is really hilarious! Some guy plays Mario Kart, but not on a Wii or Gamecube. Instead, he hits the road with his custom built kart. But what really makes it funny is the fact that he’s throwing shells and bananas at passing cars!

Nintendo is full of crap, and here’s why
A week ago I got rid of my Wii. Nintendo kept promising they won’t forget core gamers, but still failed to deliver any games that weren’t another version of Mario or Zelda, a collection of childish mini-games or something that’s only enjoyable when you’re together with a bunch of drunk morons. The last more or [...]
Next Wii still using IR?
Even though nothing has been announced officially about the next Wii, the first rumours have already started surfacing, and one of them is that the controller will still use IR. I hope this isn’t true, since this is one of the many things I hate about it: having to aim it properly at the screen. [...]

Wii MotionPlus: built-in or add-on?
A few days ago Nintendo announced the Wii MotionPlus, wich will allow much more accurate motion tracking with the Wiimote. Even though the pictures showed a small device you could just clip on the Wiimote, it’s not certain yet it will be available as an add-on. Nintendo apparently hasn’t decided wether they will manufacture them [...]
Wii MotionPlus
Nintendo has announced a new accessory for the Wii: the Wii MotionPlus. It’s basically a small gizmo you plug into the Wiimote wich enables it to do full 3D motion tracking, thus greatly enhancing its accuracy. According to Nintendo, this will translate into 1:1 tracking on the screen, wich should make, for example, real swordfighting [...]
NES Controller Coffee Table
This is definitely one of the coolest coffee tables ever! It’s not just a big picture of a NES controller with a sheet of glass over it, no, it’s an actual scaled up NES controller. That’s right, this thing actually works! Of course, you’d need an working NES for that, but there are still plenty [...]
Neo Geo Controller for the Wii
In the old days, game controllers were rock solid devices that you could slam with your fist without risking ruining it. This Neo Geo controller for the Wii is such a controller, and perfect for playing Virtual Console fighting games. It connect to the Wii’s USB ports.
