One thing you don’t find on most console games is a custom level editor. Sure, many PC games give you the option of creating entire maps for first person shooters and the like, but generally console games get left in the dark. However, Super Smash Brothers Brawl  promises to give you exactly that.

The level editor seems to be pretty straightforward. First you will select the size of your arena, followed by the background and music. You’ll then be able to set your platforms ladders and items exactly where you want them on a 2D grid. What’s even better is that you can save your level on an SD card, or send it over the internet. What’s better is that you can even submit your level to Nintendo.

I’m sure that last part my have made you scratch your head just a bit. If you’re wondering why you’d want to send it off to Nintendo, here’s an explanation from Masahiro Sakurai. “A stage selected from the entire daily collection will be sent from Nintendo to your Wii. A stage made by someone else will come to you over the Internet once per day.”

I don’t know about you, but I really need to get my hands on a Wii. However, I’ve got plenty of time, as the game was delayed until early 2008.

Recently I’ve noticed a few TV stations that have unusually loud commercials. I’ve been without my DVR for a little while, so I’ve been forced into watching more commercials, so I’m really quite annoyed by this. There’s nothing like grabbing the remote and adjusting the volume just so you can hear yourself think. Thankfully Dolby has a solution for this issue.

Dolby Volume promises to measure, analyze and control the volume based on how we perceive and organize sound. The system works by combining a Volume Leveler with a Volume Modeler which will not only keep the volume consistant, but also as clear and crisp as possible.

This technology will need to be built-in to your TV or AV receiver, and there’s no word yet on when we will being seeing this or how much of a premium we will have to pay for it.

One of my favorite past times is riding my bike. I don’t do it nearly as much as I once did, and I’m actually a bit sorry for that. There’s just something relaxing about taking off down a country road that just can’t be duplicated. I can honestly say at no time did I ever consider using my bike wheels to display some type of message to passerbys.

Then again Lex wasn’t around back then either. Lex is a small device that attaches to the spokes of your bike and uses the rotation of your wheels to display a message of your choosing.

I suppose this would be an interesting way to display your number in a race, or perhaps advertise your services as a bike messenger. Lex comes with software to generate whatever message you wish via your computer and can run up to 96 hours on a single AA battery.

Remember when you were a kid and you’d run a piece of string between two cans and use them like a pair of walkie-talkies? Yes, my parents may have been too cheap to buy us real walkie-talkies, but it still blew my mind as a kid that it actually worked. Well, here’s a pair of speakers that will bring back fond memories to anyone that used those as a child.

Not only will the Tin Can speaker set from Boost Mobile bring back fond memories, but it will add a bit of personality to your desk. The “tin cans” designed by Dean Bradley and covered in graffiti by artists Mint and Serf.

Aside from their cool appearance, there’s not much else to these. They’re your average pair of 5-inch speakers, with several adapters included so they can be used with a variety of gadgets. No word yet on pricing or availability.

There are thousands of USB flash drives on the market, and it would be insane to try to cover each and every one of them. Usually, they are just a standard flash drive with a fancy (or funny) outer casing. This one is exactly that. No fancy features whatsoever, but damn it is funny-looking.

I’ve never lived on a farm, though I did have a pet chicken once. No joke, it just wandered up one day and shacked up with our barn cats. I swear it thought it actually was a cat. Anywho, this Chicken Foot Flash Drive does look quite similar to the foot of my chicken Spot. Though I think the color might be off a bit.

The company that created this flash drive is called Whazatt, which seems to be most appropriate. The flash drive is a bit overpriced at $44.95, but is still funny nonetheless.
