I notice it has a pass through for the cord (basically a male female extension for the nunchuck) I just wonder how the fit and finish on that is. You have to remove the wrist strap to use it, uh oh jkOriginally Posted by illmatic31

Hi All,
I bought the wii a few months ago, and I love it! My whole family plays with it. I thought wii sports and Tiger woods was cool, but something wasn't quite right. I realized that it could feel more like holding a bat or golf club. So I went out drew this image, got a patent(!) and now I'm trying to get it made in a factory!
Anyways, here's the pictures of the baseball bat (can't wait to get the Bigs!). I have baseball, golf and tennis rackets.
Let me know what you think? Cool? Stupid? Needs more work?
and
Thanks!
ooooh, I forgot to mention that the different handles can snap into the top part. So you can switch between baseball and tennis (or golf) in two secs.

it's cool and all, but Murphy's law tells me to fear that and stay away from anyone that owns one. I'm not saying you don't know how to make a quality product, it's just that well I'd rather not even risk it. As much of a baseball nut I am, nah. I'd pass on it. If you made a red sox version of it with a red wiimote I might buy it as a novelty though, cuz well I'm a dork like that
Hehe. Yeah, that was priority number one for me as well. I have an LCD TV - and a small child - to keep out of harm's way. I also decided to do a rigid, but soft foam-y handle. The final product will have redundancies to prevent lasting injuries.
I'm in CT, so a Saux version is a good possibility!

is it actual wood?
is it made in china?
does it contain lead paint?
lol sorry to ask, but I've done some product development for CF goods and automotive parts in china, well, I am not dealing with that anymore lets just put it like that. At the time it was a bargain to do preliminary manufacturing in china, work out bugs, and then later move it to better facilities, it cut the cost of start up significantly.
if you have any questions about any of that fun stuff shoot me a pm.
I'm still not crazy over the idea of it just being on the top. I'd like it better if the bat enveloped the wiimote at the very top. the force of swinging a bat forces everything outwards, and I'd be weary about that.

Hi Robotnik,
The drawing is a bit misleading. The top is actually a hard plastic container that holds the wiimote in place. It's clipped in there with the two red thingies-It's not go anywhere. I'm going to changed the color of the WiiStiix holder in the drawing. Thanks for the awesome input!
oh, the bat doesn't envelope the whole thing b/c the bat comes off and you can attach different handle (golf club, tennis racket). Also, I was afraid of hiding the wiimote and blocking any button access or signals to sensor.
Here's a question for everyone: What color should it be? A light-ish blue?
How's this?:
