We were admiring this pair of Wiimote paint jobs, and thinking that in general we like the idea of making your Wiimote your own. There are other ways to do this, like writing your name on it with a Sharpie, or licking it, but we want to talk about painting.
Specifically, if you had a guarantee that your Wiimote would still work afterward, how would you paint yours? Would you go for the Atari or Van Halen motifs above? A NES controller theme? Authentic sprites? We know you are all delightfully creative, so come up with some weird Wiimote designs! Feeling bored? Get your MS Paint on! Then upload the result to Imageshack or your favorite image host and share it in the comments!

Well, I would photograph my fully erect penis and screen it on.
...and then be ashamed of my Wiimote because there's still so much of the white showing.

Although I did lick my Wiimote (took a pic, put it on myspace) I would want the Atari or NES controller painted one. They just look so kick ass.

There you go Patrick, also, this is the way the classic controller skin SHOULD look.

b0ogie: Oh yeah! Hook me up! That's friggin sweet!
Though, I'm partial to the Van Halen one. So many sweet memories of blown ear-drums and cruisin' with the stereo blastin' on Friday nights.

Oh, and what about a "Da Cheat" motif ala Homestar Runner? That would rock. That be a distant second in coolness to the "Cheetar," but a second nonetheless.

Am I the only one who would consider putting a naked woman on my wiimote?
Nothing really crass, just woman who happens to be naked...

@Grey Acumen:
But what if disapproving guests or those darn impressionable little kids came over and saw it?
Best case scenario: You don't know anyone like that, everyone you know either loves it or doesn't care.
Worst case scenario: Everyone who's taken sex ed either avoids you or screams something along the lines of "WHAT DID YOU DO TO THAT POOR CONTROLLER?!?!", while everyone who's too young to understand ends up jacking off to porn sites for the rest of their lives, never EVER getting a girlfriend from then on.
I know, that's an exaggeration, but I did say "WORST case scenario," didn't I?
