Nintendo may be a lot of things, but stupid it ain’t. Cashing in on yet another gift-giving holiday, the console sales leader is bringing Americans a pair of freshly paint-licked Wii Remotes that should appeal to the his-and-hers demographic that seems to grow in number at this time of year. As you can see above, grabbing one will set you back $54.99, which is about the same price as the regular MotionPlus bundle. So, even if you weren’t thinking about wooing your loved one with yet another Wii peripheral, at least the US now gets a 200 percent improvement in MotionPlus color choices. How is that not progress?

Blue Microphones’ original Mikey made the quite the impression when it landed back in late 2008, and while a good bit of time has passed, the new and improved version doesn’t stray from its roots. Debuting here at CES, the second-generation Mikey Portable Recorder for iPod and iPhone touts “improved circuitry for superior recording and enhanced new features,” which happens to include a pair of custom-tuned Blue capsules and an optimization for recording high-volume concerts. There’s also a 3.5mm line-input here for direct recording of other sources, and the USB pass-through connections enables simultaneous charging and syncing. You’ll get a 230-degree range of adjustability with seven detent positions, and it’s bundled with a delightful carrying case to keep it safe from harm as you shuffle through the masses. Interested? Check it later this Spring for $99.99 at Apple Stores, Guitar Center, Amazon.com and your local nondescript white van.
