 Sony: financial losses not as bad ...New releases for week ending Augus...

Suction pads: the sign of any professional pilot.

Another week passing since the launch of the hugely popular Nintendo Wii can only mean one thing: yet more absolutely pointless but thoroughly tempting Wii gaming accessories that we really don't need.

This week GamerSquad presents you with RenChi's Airplane Controller Stand. The shell, which is designed to look like the control stick of an aeroplane, fixes itself to a flat surface thanks to a hefty suction pad, while the Wii Remote and Nunchuk clip comfortably into the nifty peripheral's left and right side housings.

The idea with Renchi's latest offering is that playing airborne games on the Nintendo Wii is made that little bit more authentic. Thing is though, there aren't that many flight-based games currently available that cater for such a device - the only ones that instantly spring to mind being Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII and Wing Island. 

Still, with an all-new Pilotwings rumoured to be in the works (it's not even a proper rumour, everyone just reckons Nintendo would be completely daft to ignore such an opportunity on Wii), who knows, we might yet get a lot of use from this $12.99 USD purchase.

Next week: GamerSquad takes a sneaky peek at the Nintendo Wii Pogo Stick and Frisbee.
