Look at the pretty lights: Wiimote modded up purty

Chalk another one up for "interesting things to do with your Wiimote that most assuredly void the warranty." Leet hax0r "sir crx" of the MaxConsole Forums just got LED happy in his Wiimote, but unlike lame-o attempts by his predecessors, crx did his one up right, with a different LED color for each controller "port." The blue, red, green and yellow colors denote players 1-4 and make for quite the show -- in a complete Wii fanboy sort of way, naturally.

the Wii remote, along with the system itself, is sold out everywhere (at least in Canada). Things are snatched up the instant they show up. It can only be worse if there's different colours and people starts to pick and whine.

I always prefer blue over any other colour but this mod is really nice. The "A" button kinda reminds me of the "materia" in FF VII, too!

Enough Wiimote-related stuff already, Engadget!

Jeesh.

If I knew it was this easy to get on engadget I had this idea in my head 2 months ago, I would've bought a triwing screwdriver.
