    NES Skins Transform the Wii into 8-Bit Ancestors

    This faux-NES skin for the Wii celebrates my childhood. Other kids played ball with the old man. But my dad was an engineer. We played NES.

    So it's with great fondness that I fire up the Wii's virtual console, jack in the classic controller, and remember the days where pops and I would rock the 2P action until dinnertime. The skin is labeled with Revolution Entertainment System, mashing up the Wii's original name with the "ES" in NES. The labels are guaranteed to not peel, fade, or leave gunk on your Wii if you decide to transform back. And they cost $15 bucks.

    The real-life photos of it look pretty good, too:
