I have a modded NTSC-J Wii that I bought from Digital Mall, PJ in 2006 and now its semi bricked. I tried to play a Mario Kart PAL CD on Saturday and it was a big mistake. I thought it was a NTSC version as the outside jacket said so. Then I looked at the CD and it said PAL. Darn. Now I will need to fix the problem by downloading this repad ISOs to unbrick it. – Semi-brick fix discs for all three regions (updated)

I have the Nyko Charge Station for Nintendo Wii
If you have a Nintendo Wii, then you know how irritating it can be when the battery runs out on the Wiiremote. Instead of just using the default AA batteries on the remotes, try to cool Nyko Charge Station for Nintendo Wii. You can charge 2 remotes on the dock and it takes about 45 mins to get a full charge. Once its charged up, it gives about 6 hours of play during my tests since Nov 2007.
Removing and installing the new rechargeable batteries into your Wiimote is very easy. Just pop out the AA batteries, pop in the new rechargeable ones, close the lid and you are done. If you do not have a silicon jacket for your Wiimote, its OK. The grip cover give enough rubbery support even for slippery hands. The charge station goes for $39.99

Nintendo Wii Nunchuck controller goes Wireless
Thanks to Nyko, you don’t need to plug the Wii Nunchuck via cable on da Wiiremote anymore. It has gone Wireless.
It has full accelerometer support and it goes up to 30 hours of gameplay on two standard AAA batteries. That’s quite good since the Nyko Charge Station makes my Wiiremote play for only 25 hrs. Expect to see it on Amazon or your local store shelves in February 2008 for $29.99.
