The Wii has had its share of crazy controllers. This is definitely a strange one: it’s a reproduction of a table tennis paddle. One thing’s for sure, if you love table tennis, then this is the Wii pad for you!

The TT Champion Bat is made by Shinobii Technologies and…

Purists out there may not like this statement, but I cared nothing for Star Trek until TNG came on TV. I was hooked from the get go and watched just about every episode and movie the cast made. I like Jean-Luc Picard much better than any of the other captains…

This 404 page made me laugh. It’s from the 501st Legion’s website. What’s the 501st Legion? It’s a Star Wars costume organization, but not just any Star Wars …costume organization, the world’s definite Imperial costume organization. This means Jedis and padawans are not allowed.

Minecraft… modder copyboy managed to figure out a way to recreate the walking-through-walls experience

This simple, yet clever “Spacebar” t-shirt design by Montro has yet to be made, but truly deserves to be.

It combines four of my favorite things, computers, astronauts, passing out drunk, and hipster t-shirts all in a single package. Vote for it over at Threadless, and someday it could be…

ThinkFlood’s RedEye adaptors are popular alternatives to dedicated universal remotes. Just plug them into your iOS device and download the RedEye app and you’re good to go. On it’s own, the RedEye adaptor will work with most home theater appliances, but not with the PS3, because the console doesn’t have…
