Nintendo Wii Crystal Cooler (with fan)

Wii Crystal Cooler

The Wii Crystal Cooler looks like a pretty cheap way to both pimp your Wii (debatable) and cool it down at the same time. For a mere $19 you get a new stand packing a high velocity fan working hard to reduce the console’s temperature (and supposedly prolonging its life) and a bright blue LED light with an on/off switch.

Both the fan and LED light is powered by one of the Wii’s USB ports so no need for weird wiring or batteries.

Microsoft Reclusa: Gaming Keyboard

Microsoft Reclusa

Here’s Microsoft / Razer Reclusa, a pitch-black keyboard designed specifically for gaming. Among the features we find Razer Hyperesponse Gaming Key Action put in place to reduce the dreadful key latency, blue LED backlit keys for late night sessions, two 360° jog-dials, six programmable gaming hot keys, gold-plated USB ports and a detachable and padded wrist rest.

I4U did a full review of the Reclusa and found it pretty appealing (7.5/10), while reporting on some issues – could be worth a read if you’re about to buy one.

Gameboy modded to PC running XP

Gameboy XP PC

If you had an old Gameboy you didn’t know what to do with, what would you do? You’d rip it apart and cram it with all the parts necessary for a fully functional PC running Windows XP of course. While the original display is MIA it does feature a VGA port for a monitor, two USB ports, one Ethernet port for happy networking and the A and B buttons has been gifted with LEDs indicating power and activity status.
