Unleash the force with a Wii light saber
October 24, 2008 by Insider Staff
It’s been almost two years since the Nintendo Wii came out, but finally the game console accessory we’ve all been waiting for has arrived: the Wii light saber. Thrustmaster’s Glow Saber Duo NW pack gives you the chance to swing your Wiimote like a light saber, only with a glowing LED blade to transport you to a galaxy far, far away.
It’s not bad timing either, with Star Wars: The Force Unleashed just unleashed on the Wii. And because a light saber just isn’t any fun without another to duel to the death with, Thrustmaster has kindly included two in the pack when goes on sale in the UK on November 5th.
Top talents
Light up light sabers
Pop some batteries in and these sabers will light up just like Vader’s.
Two can play that game
Sensibly come as a pair for multiplayer clashes.
Game compatible
Any Wii sword games will work with the Glow Sabers – the perfect excuse to get Red Steel down from the shelf.
Going up against
Wii Machine Gun – Gun or sword, gun or sword? You decide.
Nyko Wii Kama Wireless Nunchuk – Bid farewell to cables and wrist straps.
Joytech Controller Grip – Handy for games which require you to hold the narrow Wiimote sideways.
