Treehuggers, put down your soy beans and inch a little closer for this one: The guys from Tom's Hardware have put together a rolling solar-powered Wii kiosk using a single 20 watt solar panel to run their gaming rig. So what good is it? Level 70 geek factor aside, the engineerer states that they can get 5-6 hours of game time anywhere they go. Not bad if have an uncontrollable desire to break out Excite Truck when you're doing peyote in the desert, living on the blood of snakes. The guys wheel it down to Venice Beach where bewildered passersby get their game face on -- check out the video.
Anyone care to top this? I have a blueprint for a Corvette engine Wii alternative.
