Nerds Rejoice At Clone Trooper Blaster and Lightsaber for Wii [Official Star Wars Wii accessories for Clone Wars: Republic Heroes]

Just in time for the September release of the Clone Wars: Republic Heroes game for Wii, BDA Consumer Products, Chinese Champions of Controller Creation, has created a set of officially-licensed Nintendo Wii controllers designed to resemble lightsabers and a clone trooper blaster. This is truly the stuff of dweeb dreams.

Licensed by Lucasfilm Ltd. and marketed under BDA’s POWER A brand, the POWER A Light-Up Lightsabers are sculpted replicas of the famed weapons used by Anakin Skywalker and Jedi Master Yoda. Designed for use with the Wii Remote, an on/off switch allows players to control the light-up feature of the lightsaber. The Anakin lightsaber is illuminated with a blue glow, while Yoda’s has a green glow. The Wii Remote fits in the lightsaber handle that has been specially designed to help alleviate Wookie Wrist.

The Clone Trooper Blaster was created to accompany the The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes game and is designed for use with both the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. As if this weren’t enough, it also comes with a set of decals that allow you to add a battle-worn look to your blaster or keep track of your virtual kills. That way, when your friends come over to admire your skills (and laugh at you), they’ll know you are a true Star Wars hero. Just remember to put these nerd nick-knacks under your bed before you invite a girl over. You do want to increase your chances, don’t you?

There’s no price information available on these Wii-riffic offerings just yet, but we do know they are set to hit store shelves sometime this fall. May the force be with you.
