Wii related mishaps are nothing new; they are so frequent that Nintendo decided to include a wrist strap, but that could not stop accidents like this one.
It is not too often, however, that one has the pleasure of witnessing a live Wii accident on television.

If you want to tidy up your Wii or XBox-360 mess, these Slam Gaming Towers look an interesting way to get the job done. Both storage units hold the corresponding console and up to 16 games a piece.
From their the design diverges a little bit. The Wii version has a controller dock for up to 4 Wii-motes or Nunchakus. The X-360 version holds 4 controllers and a guitar. For people living with limited space, they do look a very good way to reduce the gaming footprint.
Price: The X-360 and Wii gaming towers are priced at $99 each. [Chip Chick]
If you don’t want your TV screen dirtied up by your sticky-fingered kids, then TV Armor could help, it is a giant piece of acrylic that can shield your screen and that is almost certain to catch the light and add new dimensions of glare to your viewing experience. Personally, I would rather clean the screen periodically than part with the $169 to $289. (more…)
How fun is the Wii? So fun it seems that it drove undercover police officers to distraction in the middle of a raid on a convicted drug dealer’s home. The gaming session was caught on suspect Michael Difalco’s security camera and has since made its way online, much to the embarrassment of the Polk County constabulary.
This R2-D2 packs in eight different consoles and a projector, to create a one-of-a-kind, all-in-one monstrosity of the very best kind.
Featured consoles: NES, SNES, Nintendo 64, Genesis, Dreamcast, Playstation, Xbox and a PS2.
Conspicuous by their absences are the PS3, X-360 and Wii, but given the case, it seems appropriate to keep things old-school. [TheForce via DVICE]
