Ghostbusters Wii mod sets a new bar, proves that dreams do come true

The Wii has seen its fair share of related modifications, and while our favorite Nintendo mod still has Pixar written all over it, this one just might take the cake for the Big N's freshest console. Created by an obviously obsessed (and über-talented) Ghostbusters fan, the Nintendo Wii Proton Pack is a fully functional device that beautifully complements the Wii version of the Ghostbusters video game. For those doubting the thought that went into this, take a listen: the Blue Power Cell accurately reflects how much power you have left, and the Thrower has been designed to covertly hold both the Wiimote and the Nunchuk. Better still, the Wiimote's internal speaker enables the pack to make true-to-film noises. Hit the source link to get a better look, but we'd recommend suiting up in your best 80s era, ghoul-busting garb before diving in.

Update: In-action video is now after the break!

@JustThatNerdyGuy don't cross the streams.

@Floppy
Crossing the streams would mean he made TWO of them! We can only hope. :)

if you have two, do you get an option of total protonic reversal?

[N900 Posted Feb 26th 2010 3:15PM]

THIS is who I'm gonna call.

[decypher44 Posted Feb 26th 2010 3:16PM]

One of the best mods I have ever seen.

[XChrisX Posted Feb 26th 2010 3:17PM]

Incredible!

[tazmond Posted Feb 26th 2010 3:38PM]

Looks like a bong...

*waits for some kind of "Don't cross the beams!" reference*

[Jaylittles531 Posted Feb 26th 2010 4:19PM]

@Lucas

It's streams not beams. A beam is used to build a high rise.

@Jaylittles531

I thought it was a piece of gym apparatus..

[Jaylittles531 Posted Feb 26th 2010 4:19PM]

Just make sure you dont cross the streams.

[Bocefuss4500 Posted Feb 26th 2010 8:32PM]

Talk about someone with too much time on his hands (normally me ) i love it !

[Mack211 Posted Feb 26th 2010 9:41PM]

Anyone else see an Austin Powers 'Pump' on the front?

[Brendan H Posted Feb 27th 2010 12:52AM]

So somebody straps a wiimote to a portable sewing machine and everybody craps themselves? Easy room...

[applebottom1976 Posted Feb 27th 2010 4:27AM]

@Brendan H
What are you talking about? That looks like a great mod. You are either to young to understand the Ghostbusters phenomenon, or feel irked because someone modded a sewing machine (now why is it that you know that is a sewing machine?)

[stridermt2k Posted Feb 27th 2010 7:39AM]

Tell 'em about the Twinkie!

[Inspector Gadget80 Posted Feb 27th 2010 10:22AM]

Now that's just damn cool right their. If it was for sale I would buy it and play it while I play Ghostbusters.

[Metah4 Posted Mar 1st 2010 11:45AM]

Wow! That looks hot!!!! My kids would love it!!
