Rapid Shot Wii submachine gun controller by Innex. I know the “Mature gamers only” marketing for this thing is asinine, but it’s kind of a neat accessory, and not just because it’s modeled after a Heckler & Koch’s MP5.
If you look closely, you’ll see the Wii Remote, Nunchuk, and Wii Motion Plus are actually built into the controller — hopefully Innex made sure the button placement is intuitive. The speaker and rumble are built-in, too, and the detachable clip even holds the controller’s batteries!
This still isn’t as rad as Pega’s Shark zapper accessory, which has trigger that makes it look like you’re squeezing a Shark’s dick whenever you want to let off a shot.
[Note: If you desperately want a Rapid Shot so you can act out scenes from Die Hard in your living room but don’t have the patience to wait a couple weeks for Innex to debut it to the public, here are directions for creating your own MP5 Wii controller.]

The “Famirimocon,” a Wiimote hacked into Famicom controller bodies. Lamenting the lack of a “classic” controller option in New Super Mario Bros. Wii due to the game’s occasional motion use, Famicom Kaizou’s blogger created a Wiimote that kind of looks like a Famicom controller.
For some reason, the wiring involved in making this happen required parts from a Game Boy Advance link cable and AC adapter. I have no idea. If you’d like to try this wacky project yourself, it’s detailed in a bunch of pictures at the site.
