In late August, a rumor surfaced that said Nintendo is making some changes to the 3DS. Among the biggest changes was a second analog stick that would be sold separately for $10. This rumor may have seemed like a stretch back then, but it is very much true.

Product: dreamGear’s Wii Dual Glow Sabers (aka Dual Glow Lightsabers for Wii)Price: $34.99Rating: One thumb sideways, one thumb down; 67/100; D+; * 1/2 out of five.Pros: You get two in one package. Light construction does not interfere with motion. Hilt is very shiny.Cons: Does not make any of the great Star Wars lightsaber noises. Uneven illumination. A bit chintzy.Overall: Like most lightsaber toys, a bit of a letdown since it does not make any sounds of its own. My almost-two-year-old loves to swing one around (sans WiiMote, of course). Only get this if it’s deeply discounted.

Intended to be used with Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (and suggested to go with No More Heroes and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess) for Wii, dreamGear’s Dual Glow Sabers are WiiMote holsters that are intended to provide the illusion of wielding a lightsaber while gaming.

Unfortunately, the idealized wonder of an actual Lightsaber meant this accessory had too much working against it before it was even made…
