    Already have a MicroSD card (used in many portable devices, such as cell phones)? Then, you may be interested in picking up SuccessHK's MicroSD adapter, which will let the card fit snugly into the PSP. Beyond cross-platform compatibility, you'll get access to cheaper memory. For example, we found a 6GB card for only $85 on amazon.com.[Via DCEmu][Update: A reader has chimed in, saying the device is unreliable. "The Memory Stick read light just blinks with an error and the card never comes up. Kind of a bummer." A bummer, indeed.]

  • Rechargeable Controller Grip

    Fire Bird's rechargeable grip combines the functions of a Wii remote charging dock and a controller frame accessory. The product seemed silly to us at first, but we suppose that something like this could be useful when we're playing Virtual Console releases or games that require us to hold the remote sideways like Excite Truck. Having a convenient way to recharge the battery via USB will also come in handy for future marathon sessions with Fire Emblem: Goddess of Dawn when Nintendo brings the time-consuming SRPG stateside.SuccessHK no longer has the rechargeable controller grip in stock, but there are still a few listed on eBay for about $9.99 ($8.00 shipping). One strange thing to note about the packaging is its Wii Sports branding. Having your remote locked into the plastic frame would make playing any of the Wii Sports' games awkward. Check out that Wii logo too! The last two letters look more like a u-umlaut than lowercase i's. Head past the post break for a larger shot of the grip![Via DCEmu]
