Brando's WeDock: A $19 box
If you've ever considered yourself a person of class, a member of the gaming bourgeoisie if you will, you'd turn your nose up at the idea of keeping your controllers in a plastic bin or wicker basket. That's the sort of practice you'd rather leave to those of lesser fortune and breeding, right?No, your discriminating tastes demand more sophisticated storage solutions. You require something like Brando's WeDock, a product that does very little for its $19 price tag, but does it quite stylishly. The small locker's clean, white design matches your Nintendo Wii along with any Apple sensibilities you might have. Its one-touch, "springboard" slots fit up to two remotes and nunchucks.When guests ask if the WeDock recharges your remotes' batteries, you'll laugh in their faces until they bow their heads in shame. Of course it doesn't. Jump past the post break for more product shots.
Wii video madness -- how to play with the Wiimote
Aside from now wanting to eat the Wiimote, we enjoy playing with them too. There are three new Japanese commercials giving quick instructions on how to use the Wiimote in Wii Sports and Wario Ware: Smooth Moves. You won't understand what they are saying but the visuals help. Some of the brief displays given were golf, tennis, bowling (it's neat to hear the announcer pronounce it), pool, driving and balancing in Wario Ware among others. [Thanks HAZ!]
