The Nintendo Wii has long been an accident waiting to happen. When the console first launched, there were a plethora of reports about shattered windows and TV sets, caused by Wiimotes slipping out of users' hands. The advent of controller add-ons has only made matters worse. Add the new Louisville Slugger-branded baseball bat attachment to the list of potentially disastrous add-ons.
The attachment is a mini-wooden bat with a case that users slip the Wiimote into at one end. The "bat" is 15.5 inches long and, thankfully, made of foam. It's compatible with all the big Wii baseball games, including Major League Baseball 2K9, The Bigs2, and MLB Power Pros.
The controller will be available in mid-October for $14.99. That's plenty of time to buy a nice foam helmet.

f they can get a PS2 emulator running on the PS3, I wouldn't be surprised to see a huge catalog of games on the PSN. Each sale would be pure profit, so it wouldn't make sense to limit the scope of the titles that were available. Obviously Activision, EA, and others would need to sign off on the games going up, but there is really no reason for them not to.

If it's actually wand-shaped, they should secure from Whodini the rights to "Mr. Magic's Wand," and the commercials would write (and, hell, film) themselves.
