Am I the only one who thinks this looks awesome?

GameStop also has the snappy looking Afterglow Cooler for the Wii. Though the Wii seems to be quite a bit more hardy than the overheating prone 360, GameStop's console stand incorporates a cooling fan to aid in ventilation and Wii-themed blue LED accent lighting. $14.99 will be the expected pricing.

Hmm... I haven't had ANY overheating problems with mine, and it's been on standby since Nov. 17th. *Nod nod* Dunno if it's worth it for me.

I wouldn't be getting it for the fan, I'd be getting it for the awesome blue LEDs it has in it!

Abit pointless... I like it when my room is all dark with the blue Light on but that would be annoying. VERY annoying although it does cool down your system and mine never overheats

I just bought one. its pretty cool. I like it. worth the 20 bucks I spent @ circuit city
*edit* So the one I got is a Psyclone Essentials Chill Station. Lights up, but the base is a little simpler but still has the slots for one wiimote and a 'chuck on each side.

Yeah it looks pretty cool...
...but wouldnt it block the bottom vent of the wii? Doesnt that defeat the purpose of a cooler?

They should make a neon afterglow for the stand. I'd rather save for a game than get this, it's not a nessecery.
