- RexMaxus, on 10/12/2007, -3/+69Exactly which topic would you put it under?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+52This is the right topic, it's not like you would put it under golf or something.

URL of the auction on ebay for said console mod (with more photos) - daridave, on 10/12/2007, -0/+26To detach the sword, just shake the wiimote... ;P
- thedraft, on 10/12/2007, -0/+25Detachable sword to fend off all the ladies, no doubt.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+27Now that is amazing! Especially the fact that you can take the sword off.
- scuzzman, on 10/12/2007, -2/+18Where's my car?
- RiskyChris, on 10/12/2007, -2/+18Music on a webpage is SO 1998.
- ryouko, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12damn, It would have been nice to know that whoever made that ebay auction still thinks that music files playing when you open the site is cool, especially music files that start off with a full blast SCHHEHERER (static).
- Scrappy1850, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12too soon? nahhhhh....
- RolltheStampede, on 10/12/2007, -12/+19its sword and shield from the zelda special edition soundtrack target was selling a while back. He just sprayed the case and stuch the shield on the side, what is so impressive.
- mlvassallo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I wouldn't say the Legend of Zelda is "infamous". It is Legendary if anything.
GTA would be "infamous". - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9isn't that just the Target-exclusive sword and shield stuck on a wii with some led's underneath?
- chingy1788, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6It should come with a Wii Remote modded to look like a sword
- johnmalc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Why not just turn the Wiimote INTO a Mastersword?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6I don't really like the look of the texture on the Wii itself, and I knew before I opened the link that it was going to be the Zelda sword and shield set from Target, but the lighting looks nice. Seems like it could be kinda cumbersome though if you're trying to transport the Wii around.
- Stirk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4What's up with music on the ebay page? Does anyone else find it incredibly annoying?
- myshoeshurt, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I think that truly is the best case mod I've ever seen. The Gears of War Xbox 360 mod was pretty great, but this one is ridiculous. Awesome.
- Metaridley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I certainly did...that's not stopping me from wishing I could have that Wii, though.
- timmayk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3it says in the description on the ebay site that it's the limited edition master replicas sword/shield that came with the game. only 7000 were made and they're sold out. you get all the boxes that went with the sword/shield with the purchase.
- TheWorm, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Yeah, but clearly this isn't your average wii. And the smooth texture of the original wii would not fit the Zelda theme.
Curious though. How does someone make that texture? Did they do something to the original case, or make a new one? Anyone know? - Splitt3rxx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Thats great how you added a list of "cons" for the 360 and no other console, oh yeah, totally unbiased.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Who's the fanboy?
Oh, and PS3 is not the "godsend of Gaming" -- I like your use of capitalization there ;) - insovietrussia, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Hell, I'd take any Wii at the moment. Not a single one available in Australia (or anywhere else I'm guessing).
- dlrudden, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Did Napoleon Dynamite write that article title?
- beanj007, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1There's new pictures on there... much better then the blurry ones from this morning.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140096836327 - omgcthulhu, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Sounds interesting... I've never thought it is for real. http://chocozone.blogspot.com
- DarthBrady, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2and WHO is the fanboy here? your're a douchebag.
- PhoenixAvatar2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Looks decent to me, but the blue bumpy plastic reminds me of cheap, Walmart glasses.
- ZeroMP, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The texture does sort of look like rhino-skin or truck bed liner.
I think a rough texture could work - but this appears too glossy. Little less shine if you are going for a brick-like appearance.
Meh, sword and shield are cool - which I had a set. The rest looks a bit gaudy. - NeoCortex, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Nice job on the mod. In case anybody didn't realize, the sword and shield appear to be the collector's set released at Target shortly after the release of Twlight Princess. I'm sure if anybody wants to duplicate the mod, they can find those pieces on Ebay.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"I don't understand why people are bashing this"
Because they think it's ugly, which is a valid opinion? And because he didn't make the sword/shield, but just stuck them on after buying them at Target? - DarkShroud, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This thing looks awesome. I don't understand why people are bashing this, unless they're just jealous and I doubt they'll ever make anything like this.
And here I thought my gold edition N64 looked cool with my gold editions of Orcania of Time and Majoria's Mask. - DarthBrady, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Well, I think it looks awesome. Very creative!
- morphman, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2HE DIDN'T JUST SPRAY PAINT IT! READ THE DESCRIPTION PEEPS!...and to get that kind of finish on the wii and its crazy white gloss he must have worked his ass off to get it that nice. 18 step airbrushing indeed! BEAUTIFUL
- Tetsusaiga, on 10/12/2007, -4/+4The idea is pretty good. It's just too bad he didn't make his own sword and shield.
He did make the triforce on the front and it looks like he put some LEDs behind the shield. The paint job could have been better thou. The rough and shiny case doesn't seem to be match. - SirFrosty, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Pretty friggin sweet, I'm a huge Zelda fan so yeah. I think I would die if I had that Wii
- beedun, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3Anyone else thinks its ugly and is sprayed with pickup truck bed liner?
- ZeroMP, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I don't know jerkoff, I think that a MOD to a GAMING console might be placed in either topic. I'm sure there are a lot of digg users like myself who like to see these mods but don't normally click on the MOD section. I click to the GAMING section to get all things gaming related. I think your problem (Junkyard) is that there aren't enough sub-categories for the GAMING section. Notice you click GAMING to get here, then there is no choice but to put this in Gaming News because it is definately not a Playable Web Game. Maybe there needs to be 15 different sub categories? Maybe that would make it easier for submitters to get things in a place where you think they should be?
Personally I think that if Apple gets its own section on Digg then Nintendo should get the same - since they are both very popular with digg users (not me, I hate Apple).
The point is: Stop being such a prick about where things are submitted - you are the only one who cares and right now I'm playing the smallest violin in the universe just for you. - P5ycHo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Wiitard
- duckedtapedemon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Looks pretty sturdy
- thethresh, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Some case mods are more labor intense, but that is one hella cool case mod. Inventive. Imaginative. Original. Oh, and it made Digg. The layering and bas relief work are killer. :thumbup:
- Splitt3rxx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I have seen some pretty crappy mods, but this one looks AWEOSME, if I had the money I would buy something like this.
- aywwts4, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Sorry for the comment spam, I asked the seller how much of the proceeds are going to charity, he answered, I was hoping it would get posted on his questions thing, but it never did. So here it is...

- SmokeAbowl, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2b e a utiful!
- LeBlue, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1He really really pulled it off, too bad it's a geeky game such as WoW. Get out of your houses, WoW players!
- donbradken, on 10/12/2007, -1/+01/8 scale, hmm
