Put your Wii on a new pedestal


We showed you Cyber Gadget's slick hat for the Wii earlier this week, so we felt compelled to also feature some new kicks for the console. That's what you kids are calling shoes now, right? Kicks?

Unlike the standard gray stand, Talismoon's Wii bases come in a variety of colors -- Pink Chrome, Blue Chrome, Red Chrome, Green Chrome, Silver Chrome, Black Chrome, Clear, and Clear Blue, the last two of which seem perfect for LED modding, if that's what you're into. We heard that's what you're into.

Online shop Divineo already has Talismoon's stands up for sale for $12.99 each. What should you do with your old base once you've bought one of these, you ask? We suggest throwing it at children you race coins against each other to see which ones roll down the ramp the fastest. Slide past the break for more images of the colorful stands.

Talismoon's travel-sized, retractable sensor bar

Talismoon, the same company behind the swappable Wii slot gates and ninja-themed replacement shells, tinkered with Nintendo's sensor bar design to make it more compact for travel. The resulting $24.95 Sensor Wiire requires even less space than the already-low-profile standard bar and, thanks to its retractability, packs up without leaving a frustrating tangle of thin wires.

As an added bonus, you could probably use it as a pocket-sized garrotte if you don't have any other assassination tools handy. Protect ya neck and jump past the post break for more photos of Talismoon's Sensor Wiire setup.

Switch up your slot light without voiding your warranty

For only $7.95, Talismoon's Wii Gate kit enables you to change the notification light on your console's disc drive, replacing its blue glow with a new DVD gate assembly that uses either red or green LEDs. If, for some reason, you have two systems, you can buy one of each for a Christmas theme!

Talismoon advertises it as "one of the easiest customizations for the Wii," reassuring interested buyers that installing the mod won't require breaking any warranty seals. You can look over the Wii Gate's instruction sheet past the post break and see for yourself.
