Best Wii Case Mod Ever!
I'm not usually one for the fancy case mods and such, since I'm a hopeless mess with the hot glue gun, but this Zelda mod for the Wii has got to be the coolest mod to tumble across my screen in some time. It's hard to find fault with Nintendo Wii Fanboy reader Jeremy's lit-up Linkfest: the sword even slides out from behind the shield... c'mon! An 18-step process of airbrushing to achieve a "hammered" black texture, four LEDs to the backlit shield and sword, another LED for the Triforce... that's good modding, right?
To sweeten the pot, Jeremy's put the whole shebang up for charity auction on eBay, with proceeds going to Penny Arcade's fantastic Child's Play, an organization that brings "toys, games, books and cash for sick kids in children's hospitals across North America." Check it out!

Ok, even I, owner (but regretting it more everyday) of a Wii, have to say, looks pretty darn cool.
Might consider keeping it for nostalgia if it looked like that
Or maybe not. Looks cool, yeah!

Sorry, I find it tacky, looks like Junior got ahold of some spray paint and devalued his Wii (damn, that name STILL makes me giggle, why nintendo, why?).
Looks amazing but then I'm still a Zelda Fan from the N64 days Like the Triforce symbol and the Shield as well.
Food for thought:
Wii Zelda has yet to reach the 500.000 games sold mark in Japan..
.. and has stopped selling at all.
Fuels my considerations of being one of the most disappoiting Zeldas so far.
