Yesterday's future tomorrow: woodgrain Wiimote concepts


Joe D's concept of a beautiful, Atari VCS-style Wiimote, Nunchuk, Perfect Shot, and Classic Controller makes us want to slap some wood veneer over the shiny white controllers right away. While thirty years and Jonathan Ive have clouded our minds, one look at something like this reminds us that real electronics look like furniture. Microsoft knows this!

Despite being one of the most obvious designs (in our minds), we didn't see a woodgrain theme on the one decal site we checked, the popular DecalGirl. That means the market is wide open! We're not sure, however, what's going on with the lights. Electronics with lights? That's crazy.
