His hand-built arcade controller uses parts from Sanwa and Seimitsu and then knocks things straight back to 1977 with LED backlighting behind each button and the knob. The whole thing is housed in a chunky oak box that screams arcade culture.

Custom Yoshi Wii For Sale

A customised Yoshi Wii is up for sale on ebay. Warranty voided for the paint job, current bidding is at $US400 including an extra Wiimote, Wii Play and Mario Party 8.

We’re that nitpicky regarding the accomplishments of others. Seriously, huge pricks. Children cry just looking at us.
