YAHOOOOO.jpg I've always said Destructoid only attracts awesome people, and here's recent proof. Two dtoid fans hacked together a Wii Countdown Yahoo Widget and surprised me with it in my inbox! The widget bares the face of Destructoid and Mario, syncs to your system clock, then begins to count down the announced launch date of the console down to the last second. You can also set its transparency, make it hide behind windows or appear on top, position it anywhere on your desktop, and make it launch dtoid's home page if you click on the Wii. Too awesome - Yonnage and Bushfreakz, take a bow! You can also see their names in the credits on the about screen in the app, and rightly so. I'm moved to tears, which spill out oil and burn. Wanna try it? First install the free Yahoo Widgets engine, which works on Mac and PC. Ready? Now download the Destructoid Wii Countdown Widget. Enjoy!
