wow i think nintendo might me retrying the look of the power glove lol.
Honestly I've been looking forever, and ive only seen it ONCE and i couldnt get it. Since the heat will be kicking in I'm worried it'll overheat...
Does anyone know where to get a Wii Cooler? Wiiccessories doesn't show any results.

Are you after a cooler... or a Wii stand with a built in cooling fan?

Nazie · 07-13-2008, 07:21 PM

Nice finds!

gamestop has a good one for 10$ on sale, it plugs into your USB Port, but i heard anything that plugs into your usb port such as coolers, just generate equal or more heat than they're cooling. My wii doesnt over heat so im fine.

Latast update price from nintendo.wii.lowprices-shipfree.com

365 Memory is doing a free 1GB SD card, but does charge £2.95 delivery. So free-ish anyway....

Or play.com has some pretty cheap deals on 2GB cards too.

Just don't order anything over 2gb for the Wii - it won't work!

Wanna green balance board?

I think it's hideous...

(edit) found a fancy one here:

(edit) and a bunch of other custom skins, but too lazy to link em. just search 'balance board skins' and see what I mean.

walcnogard · 08-12-2008, 01:30 AM

Heh. I just got the clear silicon cover for my balance board.

pardon me if these have been posted before but i tried to scroll thru this entire thread and swore i only saw something vaguely familiar.

i find the sports games to not feel very real so i went out looking for that "Nerf Sports Pack"...

it does indeed feel more real but the "shaft" is so thick that it doesn't feel very natural on the golf club, the tennis and baseball seem pretty good though.

anybody try this...

looks to be about the same thing but $10 cheaper. the "Nerf Sports Pack" goes for $35 and the "Soft Sports Kit" for $25.

It's more of a decoration than an accessory, but I found this site that lets you design you own decals for the wii so you can decorate it. I ordered a few... one for the console.. and a couple for my controllers. Take a look at their website you want to see an example. http://www.uniqueskins.com... oh! and they also let you make decals for you phones and computers and stuff!

well i've given the "Nerf Sports Pack" a good try. again, i think the baseball bat and golf club are both very good. it's too bad the golf club doesn't narrow down on the shaft as normal ones do, but having the club gives me more of a real feeling. the tennis racket very heavy after a game or so and you cannot plug the Nunchuk into the base unit. you're better off just using the controller.

i'd be curious though about that cheaper set; to know if it was made of lightweight plastic or what...

Working great so far. Have had it for about a week now.

Could have done without the blue LED light show when the remotes are charging, but I keep the thing back behind my TV so I don't see the flashing lights. They stay solid blue when the remote is fully charged.

The Battery doors that come with it replace the existing ones and have the Lithium Ion battery built into the replacement door, so it is really easy to install them.

For roughly 15 bucks delivered, you really can't go wrong.

I was looking for some cool accessory and stumbled apon some Wii mote Light Sabers. I saw one picture without the light stick and another with them attach. It looked pretty cool so I ordered them. I cant wait to play them with the new star wars game that came out two days ago. If you want to see a picture of what im talking about go to a search engine or Amazon ( like I did) and search the word (thrustmaster glow saber duo pack).

Just picked up one of these today. Made by Intec. Was $4.99 at Bestbuy (in Canada) so I figured why the heck not. I have big hands and long fingers so holding the Wii Remote by itself in classic mode is uncomfortable for me. So far it seems rather comfortable, although the "handles" are kind of short when compared to normal joypads (they are about the same height as the Wii Classic Controller). It's made of a gel type plastic, they are not as squishy as the silicone Nintendo Jackets, but you want some firmness to it. They are not solid, but rather filled out with a series of fins to allow some air circulation to keep down on the sweaty palms. The fins are quite flexible, but don't deform much during use. There is a slot to allow the B button to come through the back, and another slot to allow the wrist strap to pass through. There is a circular hole in the centre to ease pushing the Wii Remote out. The slot for the wrist strap is grossly undersized, I had to cut it bigger with an exacto knife to allow for the plastic strap parts to pass through easily. There is a lip around the top of the cavity that wraps around the face of the Wii Remote to secure it. I also have the Nyko Recharge Station, and like the Wii Wheel, the Wii Remote does not quite fit right with the Nyko batteries and covers on, as the cavity is shaped for the original covers. However, the Wii Remote still fits ok in it with the Nyko battery and cover, the lip just doesn't quite wrap over the face on that side. There is no hole on the IR camera end, so you can't use the pointer while it is in the grip (I tried, but the fins bounce the signal around and the cursor jumps all over and off screen).

Despite the flaws, for 5 bucks, I'm happy with it. It'll save me from some cramps.
