There are 59 total LEDs, 5 custom circuit boards, 30 feet of wire, two Mario figures, a controller holder, and everything else you see is either hand-made or laser cut. There's also a custom plate dedicating this to Miyamoto for all his hard work creating a plumber that travels through pipes to a better world, giving plumbers everywhere something to strive for.

The custom console stand has an integrated Wii remote holder and a compartment for recharging the included lithium-ion batteries. Each side of the stand features a small limited edition Mario figurine. These are out of production and were only available in certain parts of Asia. In addition to the highly detailed paint job they already featured they were further touched up and clear coated for a clean professional look.

If you still haven't been able to find a Wii, this is your chance to pick one up that's both special and benefit charity. You could probably write this off as a tax deduction next year too.

The debate raged on behind the scenes, here's what the weekend team made of it:

Mark: Bullshit!... Later Luigi stuff doesn't look fake... you know what it could be, streaming from the Wii.
Jesus: Looks totally real to me... I can't imagine anyone recreating that in low poly count.
Haroon: Hey guys, are you into elf fetishes?
Eric the Intern: I think it's fake... the DS can't render something that nice looking.

There you go, the opinions are divided. Let us know what you make of it—is it real, fake or are you into elf fetishes? Who knows? Drop your comments below. [Youtube via New Launches]
