​As mentioned in Episode 58, I jumped into the world of controller modding and purchased a set of Evil Sticks from Evilcontrollers.com.  Disclaimer: BigRob games hard and games in style but is not a fan of modding specifically to cheat the system.  Xbox live polices itself, so i guess the system eventually works.  Whatever.  Morality aside… in addition to modding, evilcontrollers provides gamers with high quality custom parts, replacements and upgrades.  These visual upgrades provide a nice aesthetic and certain flair that definitely has appeal.

My copy of Twilight Princess should be here this week so perhaps I will be able to try it out for myself. In case you don’t know what Twilight Princess has to do with Homebrew read this article. The full article about the Punch-out can be read at this link.

My hands-on video with the Nyko Perfect Shot. It works considerably better than the Wii Zapper. I still think that Link’s Crossbow Training is fun but it only comes with the Zapper. Hopefully tomorrow I can post some videos of the Perfect Shot in action with the Link’s Crossbow Training and Medal of Honor Heroes 2.
