New from Mr Modchips
This device pulses any LEDs you connect to it with the beat of the music coming from your console. It can also fade your LEDs when the console is off. This device also works on the Nintendo Wii's lightbar around the disk slot to pulse and fade it.
17 different modes allow you to set your LEDs to the VU mode, fader, dim, solid on, off, or any combination of those.
Change modes easily by using an existing button on your console, rather than opening your console each time or installing another switch. A Quick Disable feature lets you quickly turn off your LEDs and then quickly turn them back on at a later time.
The PulseVU 2 controls up to 360mA (~18 LEDs), or purchase a Power Extender to add an additional 3Amps of power (~150 more LEDs).
Simpler install for Wii -- No more difficult MP point
Now works on Wii even if you don't have WiiConnect24 enabled
Much smaller, simplified design

Just when you think the world has seen its fill of questionably-useful Wiimote hacks, some pranksters have to go and get AIBO involved. Disguised as a research project on human device interaction, the Wiibot hails from University of Calgary and involves a pair of Wiimotes and nunchucks -- the nunchucks are naturally strapped to the user's biceps -- for bending the AIBO to their will. In the video after the break you can see this interface method pitted against archaic keyboard input, or you can check out the read link to see these nerds try to justify these kinds of shenanigans.

Despite certain reviews that highlight the game's flaws, Super Mario Galaxy is currently the highest rated game of all time on Game Rankings. The aeronautical plumber surpassed The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time by the skin of his pearly Italian teeth, with an average score of 97.8 percent from 30 reviews to Zelda's 97.6 percent from 31 reviews.
While all it would take is one less-than-flattering review to knock the game from its pedestal, we're sure Mario's position on top of the dog pile is enough to give Wii owners and Nintendo fanboys something to gloat about. That is, until M&M's Kart Racing inevitably seizes the throne.

Like some of our editors here at Engadget, we know you long for the carefree, multi-hued days of the Super Nintendo and all its Mode 7 glory. Well, if you live in Japan, are a member of Club Nintendo (wherein you earn points for purchases of the company's games and accessories), and have the patience to wait until April, you could be the proud owner of the Wii SNES (Super Famicom, rather) controller. The gamepad won't be commercially available, nor will it be offered stateside (as far as we know), so now is the time to firm up your relationships with Japanese friends, or start saving pennies for your forthcoming eBay bidding war. Either way, the chance to relive your youth is just around the corner.

CharlesOBlack posted this release:
OK, so, this is the first application that I have made. Ever.
This is a simple text writer for DS, that saves to your flashcart whatever you write. Not tested yet, and I have yet to put the credits. Just a simple text writer, really.
I myself haven't tried it.
Hope you like it.

Bandai Namco's RPG output on the Wii will apparently go beyond just the sequel to Tales of Symphonia. The company today opened up a teaser website for a surprise new title: Fragile: Sayonara Tsuki no Haikyo (Farewell Ruins of the Moon).
If you want solid details on the game, described as an RPG where you explore ruins, you'll have to wait just a bit. The site states that the next issue of Famitsu, due out in Japan on 11/22, will have a full report.
As for the teaser site, you can access it here. The full site will open on 11/26 after all the details have appeared in the magazine.

In an interview with Next-Gen, Nintendo of America's George Harrison was asked just how many Wiis we can expect to see on the shelf come Christmas time. Despite initially trying the old "well, we won't meet demand" line, George eventually fesses up and dishes with the cold, hard numbers:
I can't give an exact number for November and December. We had to make our final decision on how much to produce each month for the holidays back in the summer. It takes about five months for us to increase the actual monthly rate of production. We're at a rate now worldwide of about 1.8 million Wiis produced every month, and that's going to sustain itself until we get on top of this.
That's a global figure, by the way. 1.8 million. Divide that up amongst North America, Europe, Japan and everywhere else, and you get...oh dear.

With Wii continuing to do incredibly well, third parties are jumping on board faster than we can keep track of, but Nintendo wants devs to "take time" on their creations instead of rushing out quick cash-ins.
Speaking of Wii's healthy third party support, Nintendo of America's George Harrison said: "Certainly there's a strong line-up of third party titles, and we're trying to encourage them to make them.
"But, we're also trying to encourage third parties to take the time and effort to make something unique, not just to sort of throw something out on Wii because the Wii's the fast-selling system."
We're glad it's not just us noticing what's going on - late ports from old consoles, broken Wii Remote controls and the rest of the gumpf we've seen from too many third party productions.
He then goes on to state the obvious: "I think the ones that have spent the most time in the box are the ones that are going to be the most successful this holiday."
Elsewhere in the interview with our friends over at Next-Gen, he discusses Nintendo's production numbers for Wii, in light of the ongoing global shortages.
"I can't give an exact number for November and December. We had to make our final decision on how much to produce each month for the holidays back in the summer. It takes about five months for us to increase the actual monthly rate of production," he said.
He goes on to reveal: "We're at a rate now worldwide of about 1.8 million Wiis produced every month, and that's going to sustain itself until we get on top of this. We're trying to make decisions on almost a weekly basis about which market to ship the product to, because in Japan it's a big success, and same in Europe."
Insert potentially offensive joke about the poor, over-worked souls churning out 1.8 million consoles a year here.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl is set to include a new Spectator mode that allows you to watch random matches over the Internet and gamble on the results.
Unveiled on the official Smash Bros. DOJO!! website, Spectator mode does much as it says - although, this being Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, no player data is actually shared, so you can't groom anyone. Aw.
Surely the best bit though is that when you get into your random match, you can bet coins on the character you think will win before it kicks off. Which is just wicked.
Spectator mode joins an ever-growing list of cool little bonuses announced for Super Smash Bros. Brawl, which already has a star-GET-studded character line-up and a PictoChat-themed level.
If it's anywhere near as good as the GameCube one, we're all in for a treat when it's released early next year.

Not much going on in the land of Virtual Console this week, with only the Nintendo Entertainment System's 1989 basketballer Double Dribble to download.
Offering "realistic five-on-five action" (steady) on a horizontally scrolling court, it doesn't sound like the most amazing example of the noble sport of being tall and wiggling ever committed to read-only memory, but it is only 500 Wii Points. Er.
Anyway, if you want to get a better idea of its quality, try peering at some helpful screenshots provided by Nintendo, or hang around and our beloved scribe Dan Whitehead will no doubt knock up one of his Virtual Console Roundups for us. Should be a belter!

Capcom business development boss Christian Svensson has revealed that Okami Wii would never had been made if you lot hadn't belly-ached about it.
He was chatting openly on the official US blog, praising you lot for being so tenacious and helping prove there was an appetite for it.
"Even before the Okami's PS2 release, the media and Capcom fans would constantly ask us if it was ever going to come to Wii, citing the interface as being ideal for the brush mechanics," chirped Svensson.
"Okami Wii specifically exists because of that direct communication, especially those we receive on our message boards (even if they're sometimes mean to us)."
You may remember us giving Okami top marks on PS2, but despite our - and many others - singing and dancing it failed to fly off of shop shelves. For Svensson, this was a problem bought about by the choice of platform.
He added: "The bulk of our core audience was thinking about new platforms. And while there are standout new IP successes like God of War that released that same year (albeit 9 months earlier than Okami), its was still an uphill battle no matter how you sliced it."
Ready at Dawn, of Daxter and God of War PSP fame, is handling the port - a relationship formed in a hotel suite at GDC back in March and helped considerably by the onset of beer.
But the choice was far from easy, according to Svensson; for a game as beloved as Okami only the best would ever be good enough for the Capcom's table [get out - Ed].
"This was never going to be a quick turn and burn cash in..." proclaimed Svensson. "The project was far too important to do anything other than applying the utmost TLC if we were going to be successful."
The Wii version has no new content as Capcom feels it is big enough already, but alongside the new and naturally fitting motion-sensing controls Svensson hinted we may see some technical nips and tucks. Quick, belly-ache about 16:9 support.
So far work on Okami Wii is going swimmingly, and Svensson is confident it will be in (US) shops by next spring.
"As it stands today, the team has the game assets converted (quite the laborious process), up and running in a ported version of Clover's engine. There are still several systems getting set up properly but there's most definitely a Wii-driven Amaterasu running around Wii-rendered environments as we speak," concluded Svensson.

Via email i got from GameworldDirect.co.uk
I don't know if it's true or not, but apparently the latest firmware update from Nintendo will render your Nintendo Wii console useless as it is said to not play ANY games whatsoever, it is also said not to complete any updates until they have further information.
