Wii Laser Sword Answers Call of Star Wars Fans Everywhere

[zekrahminator]

Ever since the Nintendo Wii first found itself in retail channels, customers have begged for light-saber support. Finally, Nintendo is answering their call with a Wii Laser Sword. While the Wii Light Sword fits in perfectly with games such as Lego Star Wars, the Wii Light Sword is no more than a standard Wii remote with a 22" LED sword. Hence, a user could theoretically bring his light-saber to any Wii game, including Wii Sports. The sword will be available on November 30 for £15 (€22/$30).

Just in case zeks comment wasnt clear, NO, it is not a standard remote.

It is a piece of plastic, with batteries and LEDs. You STICK YOUR EXISTING REMOTE inside the holder.

Alternatively, attach your remote to a torch with rubber bands. Same principle. More useful... you can play outside in the night.

still cool

kinda small. and if you need to change batteries then it's just useless

 

[Cold Storm]

I want one! Don't have a Wii but I still want the wiisaber!

 

[HookeyStreet]

LOL, it looks cool. But it still proves to me that the Wii is just a 'gimmick' console (I think thats why I sold mine.....it was fun for about 30 minutes lol)

 

[Cold Storm]

Yeah, it can be called "gimmick console" because of the fact that its coming out with a new type of extra everyday. But, I believe that Nintendo just wanted to make something that will be enjoyed time and time again. Ever seen a 60 year old guy try and bowl on the Wii? It's the funniest thing ever!

The wii is just more just fun with friends. Iv'e shared many a drunken night with my housemates and mates playing wii sports and screaming at the the TV, sure it does kinda suck if your playing buy yourself but with multiple people it owns.

And, lets not forget the Green! Yoda you da man!

I prefered the purple one that Samuel.L.Jackson requested.

 

[Cold Storm]

Finally! i can be a jedi!! woop woop

Yeah!!! two friends have the red and green 250 dollar sabers that they made when ep. 3 came out... We went to play "Vs" and they brought them in and had a saber fight! the old days!!!

 

[Fuse-Wire]

awwww awesome, i want a set!! hahaha that would be so much fun, nieghbours will be like WTF!!?!?!

 

[Cold Storm]

You'd turn off the lights in the house, and all that they would see is two sabers moving back and forth! I love Nintendo.. They seem to all ways bring back the good memories!

 

[JC316]

They ONLY reason I will ever buy a Wii is if they actually come out with a Star Wars game that has FULL combat support and make it work. As it stands, that remote is pointless.

 

[Irish_PXzyan]

oh dear god!!!

 

[jocksteeluk]

no doubt that would make for an interesting dildo.

 

[Easy Rhino]

no doubt that would make for an interesting dildo.

haha i was thinking the same thing! hmmm...maybe i should pitch the idea of a Wii porn game.

 

[Cold Storm]

I couldn't even think about how "interactive" that could be!!
