Tiny but Fun

These radio-controlled helicopters are small enough to fit in the palm of your hand. The choppers come in a matched pair that can run on different frequencies, so you can have mini-dogfights with your friends.

Pressing a button on the remote can fire an invisible IR beam at your opponent’s helicopter, making it start to spin out of control. A second shot makes your enemy lose some power, and one more deadly shot kills power altogether, sending their copter plummeting to the ground.

You can grab a pair of the dueling mini helicopters from ThinkGeek for $49.99.

What Time Is It

Unlike a normal clock, this funky modern timepiece keeps its hands stationary, letting the numbers on its dial rotate around the hands to tell the time. A simple gear-drive mechanism moves the outer ring around the clock mechanism. The desk clock gets it’s name, “Pisa” from it’s eye-catching leaning tower design. And if you really feel like going all out with the 12th-century Italy theme, the dial can be reversed to show roman numerals instead of digits. So far I’ve only been able to find this clock from Korea’s Earlyadopter Mall (priced at 15,800 KRW, about $17 USD) but post a comment if you manage to find them somewhere in North America.

So if you want to know what all this hoopla is about keep reading.

Nintendo originally code-named their new video game console the Revolution. They should have kept the name, not just because the new moniker Wii (pronounced "wee") has been the butt of many jokes, but because this console truly is revolutionary.Nintendo has always delivered an enjoyable gaming experience above providing the highest specs. While Microsoft and Sony are duking it out over processing power and high-definition DVDs, Nintendo has opted for a less traditional route--and succeeded mightily.The Wii video game console is built around the experience of the Wii remote, a Bluetooth-wireless, motion-sensitive controller that can be used in a variety of ways. The Wii ships with the Wii Sports video game, a collection of fun sports titles that really demonstrate the controller's capabilities. In Wii Bowling, you move the controller in a bowling motion to line up the ball, and Wii Baseball lets you pitch and swing by moving the remote.But it extends beyond simple games. You're able to swing swords, throw football passes, and drive vehicles just by moving the controller. The remote can also be used as a traditional Nintendo controller, with a D-pad and A and B buttons. There's an expansion port on the side of the remote for adding additional sub-controllers, such as the Nunchuk controller with its analog stick (one remote and one Nunchuk ship with the video game console). This gives you additional motion-sensitive control for more advanced games.The revolutionary nature of the controller is hard to convey in words. There's a learning curve, but it's a fun curve as you get a feel for the nuances of the motion sensitivity.Nintendo has made the video game console backwards-compatible with GameCube games, controllers, and memory cards, and the system features a Virtual Console that downloads older games from Nintendo 64 and other systems.The tiny video game console (much smaller than the 360 or PS3) features an SD port so you can pop in your photo card to browse pictures on your TV. The Nintendo Wii doesn't offer high-definition output, although its 480p output is comparable to DVD quality (though component cables are not included with the system and are extra charge). With the Xbox 360 still priced at $399 and the PlayStation 3 at $499-plus, the $249 Wii is a bargain. The Nintendo Wii and its revolutionary remote will put Nintendo right back at the top of the video game console wars.

Hot Seat

There is a fine line between the casual gamer and the obsessive gamer — and HotSeat Chassis Inc. knows how to give the necessary push over that line. Take the HotSeat Flight Sim, for example, which helps distinguish the common flight-simulator fan from the true flying ace.
This $900 gaming chair, available online has a bucket seat bolted to a metal frame. The front of the chair has a mounting platform for display screens and allows you to attach a joystick or flight-stick controller for added realism. The seat comes in four colors — red, blue, yellow and black — and includes a 5.1-channel surround sound system with subwoofer.
Potential jet pilots can connect their PC or game console to the speakers, put an L.C.D. monitor on the front stand and sit down for a bit of action on the wing. The whole thing collapses for easy storage.
The Flight Sim is specially contoured to create the sensation of being strapped into a fighter jet. While you won’t get very far off the ground in this chair, a bit of imagination and a powerful PC can take you a long way.
