Star Wars Wii Laser Sword


Fans of the Star Wars franchise who own a Nintendo Wii can finally have a more realistic gaming experience with the Laser Sword add-on. Although it would work best with the Star Wars universe in mind, the Laser Sword would still double up as a decent weapon for sword-based games on the motion-capable console. A strong light covered the entire sword's surface, powered by three AAA batteries. You can choose to permanently leave the light on, or use motion detection instead where the sword will light up only when you move. I think the latter would be way more irritating as a flickering effect is introduced. How many Wiimote-based games do you play anyway that doesn't require you to move it? No idea on how much it costs though.
