It seems that the Wii lightsaber has hit store shelves, at least in Canada (previously, only the UK had seen these bad boys for sale.) Thanks to a covert photographer, Go Nintendo posted a few pics of the sabers this morning sighted at the Canadian store Zeller's. If you don't want to wait to buy one, it seems you can order one online directly from the store's website. I have to admit to being pretty interested in this peripheral, although I'll likely wait to pick one up until it's readily available in the states.
I know it's probably wishful thinking, but if the Wiimote made the lightsaber sound when you waved it, I might just about die of delight.
[Thanks Adam!]

or rather, just don't include it. and yes where's the green ones? I may want a green OR a purple one instead of the same ole red and blue.
I can imagine this being pretty awesome with No More Heroes though.
I'm assuming that was supposed to be a joke but the Wiimote already vibrates on its own...
Also, No More Heroes, etc.
Few things to note: it blocks the pointer so very few games can be played with it effectively.
It doesn't make a whoosh sound.
It does, however, light up lightsaberish(the light progresses from down to up when turned on, and up to down when turned off).
I'm grabbing one of these fuckers today.
A red one.
:D.
