Wii Controller Carry Bag
Manufacturer: PEGA
Site: Buy from Brando / Buy from DealExtreme
Price: $10.00
Overview : The Wii Controller Carry Bag allows you to store your Wii-remote and Nunchuk controllers.
Features :- Store Wii controller - Wii-mote & Nunchuk controller
- Protect your Wii consollers
- Convenience to transfer
Quality/Usability : Ever afraid of Wii-mote being scratched or damaged? What about misplacing your Nunchuk? How about accidently pressing the button and causing the battery to drain? Well, with this Wii Controller Carry Bag, you can keep both the Wii-mote and Nunchuk in the same place.
The case has a hardshell casing to protect the controllers. On the case itself is an image of the Wii remote and nunchuk attachment. The case is sealed with a zipper.
Upon opening the case, you'll notice a little netted storage area. You can either use it to hold the Wii remote, Nunchuk or the wires. If you wanted to, you can hold other accessories in that pouch such as SD card or something small.
There is also a small cloth attached inside. With this, you can protect/cover one of the controllers and prevent it from touching the other controller and causing any damage or scratches. There is enough space within the case to keep the controllers secure. Even with a controller glove/silicone case, there is enough room.
To help with transportation, there is a carabiner (clip) attached to it. So you can clip it to your belt, pants or bag.
Conclusion : Overall, the Wii Controller Carry Bag is a great accessory. Not only will it protect your controllers but keep them together as well. If you're like me who shoves the Wii remote into a bag during travel, more than likely one of the buttons is being accidently pressed by some object. When this happens, you're controller searching for the Wii and draining the battery at the same time. I had this happen to me many times where I would go play the Wii and the battery is dead. I know its not from playing. Hopefully, they release the case with more colors.

Wii Dust Prevent Cover
Manufacturer: PEGA
Site: Buy from Brando
Price: $7.00
Overview : Prevent dust gets into the Wii console.
Features :- Prevent dust gets into the Wii Console
- Extend your Wii Life.
Quality/Usability : Purpose of this product is well, you know...prevent dust. The Wii Dust Prevent Cover comes with two covers. One for the bottom of you Nintendo Wii and one for the back of your Nintendo Wii. The covers are made of plastic but the filter themselves are similar to that you find in your air conditioner.
The covers clip onto the Nintendo Wii in order to stay on. The covers don't get in the way of any cords or the base stand for the Nintendo Wii. With the covers on, there is still enough air flow to keep the Nintendo Wii cool but at the same time, prevent any dust from entering and damaging your precious Wii.
Since the covers are made of plastic and so are the clips that clip to the inside of the Nintendo Wii. Excessive removal of the dust covers may weaken the clips thus resulting the clips to fall inside the Wii.
Conclusion : Overall, the Dust Prevent Cover does what its suppose to do. But the clips that clip onto the Wii are a little iffy. They seem fragile. If you remove them too much or happen to add too much force to them, they might snap off and fall into the Wii, which isnt a good thing. Besides that, it allows enough air flow and at the same time, prevent dust from entering.

Wii Silicone Case
Manufacturer: 3rd Party
Site: Buy from Brando
Price: $10.00
Overview : The Silicone Case design with high quality silicon plastic protection sleeve. Beautiful design and make you never worry about your controller being scratched.
Features :- Prevent your Wii controller from scratches and finger print
- Anti-skid design
- Pressing button with suitable cutting
- Available color: Black, White
Quality/Usability : Similar to the Wii Controller Glove, this 3rd party silicone case is here to help you sweaty palmers with your gaming.
The silicone case comes with two cases. One for the Wii Remote Controller and the other for the Nunchuk attachment. They are only available in white and black.
The quality of the cases isnt as high as the Wii Controller Glove. The silicone (rubber) on these is not as thick. But other then quality, its all similar. The cutouts for each button is exact. The only differences between this silicone case and the Controller Glove is that there is no "WII" imprinted, no glow in the dark or multi-color look to it. Also on the back side of the silicone glove, are indentations on the back. This gives you a better grip. Applying the case isnt as hard as the Controller Glove due to its thinness.
Since the Will Controller Glove does not come with a nunchuk attachment, there is nothing to compare it to. In order to get the nunchuk into the silicone case, you would have to put the cord through the bottom. Once thats through, just slide the rest of the cord until you reach the nunchuk. Applying the case to the nunchuk is fairly easy as well.
Conclusion : Overall, the Wii Silicone Case is a great necessity when owning a Nintendo Wii. Price is reasonable as it comes with a silicone case for the nunchuk as well. The quality of the case can be better but the nice addition to the underside of the grip is great. It would of been nice if there were more choices of color to choose from.

Memory Stick cards provide reliable and sturdy storage of digital images. It has become the exclusive PlayStation® Portable memory source and also allows users to expand the imbedded memory of other products like the Sony mylo personal communicator, Sony Ericsson mobile phones and the new PlayStation3 videogame console. The format also remains a core feature of all Cyber-shot® digital still cameras.
Beginning this year, a Memory Stick slot will also be standard on all new 2007 Handycam® camcorder models.
“The life of the Memory Stick format spans from the dawning of the digital camera to the emergence of today’s high-definition video and gaming products,” said Mike Kahn, senior manager for Memory Stick Media at Sony Electronics. “Throughout all of these advances in the consumer electronics industry, Memory Stick media has remained a constant source of compact and portable flash memory.”
According to Kahn, the 8GB MSX-M8GS Memory Stick model will store approximately 1,500 images in 10-megapixel, fine mode; more than 18 hours of video at 768Kb per seconds in MPEG4 compression; and can hold a collection about 2,000 songs in the MP3 format at 128 kbps with an average of four minutes per song.
For versatility, Sony Memory Stick Duo media cards are sold with an adapter for devices with a standard-size Memory Stick media slot. Kahn said they also offer the highest durability in the flash media marketplace with a standard operating temperature range of -13 F to +185 F.
Current models of Memory Stick products employ MagicGate™ copyright protection technology to allow for the secure storage of commercial content such as digital music and downloaded movies.

Wii Replacement Wrist Strap
Manufacturer: Nintendo
Site: Wii Replacement Wrist Strap Form (US) / Wii Replacement Wrist Strap Form (UK)
Price: FREE
Overview : Nintendo is offering to replace the original version of the wrist straps for the Wii Remote with a newer version. Because Wii consoles shipped starting in early December already utilized the newer version of the strap, you will need to determine which version of the strap you have before ordering a replacement. To view the difference between the original and the new version of the strap, please click here.
If you have an original version of the strap, please complete the form.
Note: You must be 18 years old or older to order a replacement wrist strap.
Latin American users - Please click here for replacement information for your region
Quality/Usability : With all the fatalities to expensive TV sets, complaints of Wii remotes flying and injuries, Nintendo has set up an offer for Wii owners to fill out a form and have replacement wrist straps sent.
Offer is available to US residents and Latin Americans. European/Asian Wii owners should have the new replacement wrist strips included with their accessories and Wii system. Those in the US can fill out the form and Nintendo will send out replacement wrist straps, free of charge. It takes 5-8 business days to arrive once your order has been processed, but I was surprised that it arrived in 2 days from the day Nintendo sent out a shipping confirmation email. What also surprised me was that Nintendo not only sent four (4) wrist straps that I requested, but they sent four more straps. That makes a total of eight (8). I dont know why but I cant complain.
So putting the new wrist straps to test, I did the normal known problems. This includes flinging the Wii remote, accidentally letting go of the remote and even pulling on it. I was surprised to see who durable and strong the new straps are.
Conclusion : Overall, the Wii Replacement Wrist Straps is a must for those who still have the old thin wrist straps. It doesnt cost anything and its better to get replacements than break your TV set and having to buy a new one. With these new wrist straps in place, hopefully there will be no more complaints or damages to TV sets. If there is, either people dont know how to follow instructions or they need to calm down.

Wii Wireless Sensor Bar
Manufacturer: WirelessSensorBar
Site: Buy from Wireless Sensor Bar
Price: $24.99
Overview : The Wireless Sensor Bar™ can be used with any Wireless / IR control system that uses anchored IR points, such as the Nintendo Wii Remotes ("Wiimotes").
The Wireless Sensor Bar™ is battery powered, extremely easy to use, and has no external wires- perfect for any home gaming or home theatre system.
Quality/Usability : WirelessSensorBar.com is new to the peripheral scene. WSB took the same concept such as the candles, TV remotes, PSPs and Christmas lights but turned it into a real product. The WSB is to either replace the sensor bar that was included with the Nintendo Wii or used as a backup. Most people think that the sensor bar that came with the Nintendo Wii is communicating with the Wii with its 12 foot wire but its really not. The sensor bar is actually just being powered when connected to the Wii.
Honestly, the look of the WSB looks cheap. Looks as if someone just took some PVC moldings/pipes, cut them up and slapped them together. Then drilled some holes, added some LEDs and some soldering and BAM! Wireless Sensor Bar.
The WSB is about 13 inches long, 1 inch tall and about 2 inces thick. It's definitely bigger than the sensor bar that came with the Wii.
Aestheticly the WSB looks cheap but does its job perfectly! The IR LEDs are powered by a 9-volt battery. WSB.com claims the battery can last 48+ hours depending on use.
WSB.com also claims that it has the same range and accuracy that the original sensor bars of 3 and 8 feet but can probably go as far as 15 feet. From testing, it does hold true.
On the front of the WSB, it houses 4 IR LEDs (two on each side), a red LED power indicator and a ON/OFF button. The bottom has 13 inches of double sided mounting tape.
To slide off the covering, all you have to do is remove either end of the WSB and slide the top cover off. Once you have removed the top, the case reveals a simple design of the product. You can see all the wires and soldering. The soldering points look clean and I doesnt seem there would be any problems of it coming off. Even if it did, it would be easy for someone to resolder the points back.
When you turn on the WSB, the red LED is lit up to show you that its powered on. The other 4 LEDs dont light up as they shine IR to the remote.
Features :- Uses Wii Standard 3-8 foot ideal range
- Setup and use in seconds with 1 button design
- On / Off switch with Red LED indicator
- 48+ hrs of gameplay battery life
- Adhesive strip on bottom for easy mounting
- Uses 9 Volt battery (extended life)
- Designed, produced, and tested in the USA!
Conclusion : Overall, the Wireless Sensor Bar does what its suppose to do. It would of been nice if they made a smaller design and sleeker design. For the price of $24.99, it seems a bit overpriced considering you can use candles, Christmas lights or TV remotes and doesnt include a battery. If you have the cash to burn and/or dont want the extra wires, this is a great alternative.
