Getting stronger with The Force, the Wii is. Bensussen Deutsch & Associates has announced that they're manufacturing licensed Lightsaber accessories to give you the extra Jedi Knight feel when playing Star Wars games on your Wii. Also available are Clone Trooper blasters, in case you want to play the generic flunky.

The accessories will of course be released in conjunction with a Star Wars game, specifically the Wii version of Star Wars - The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes. Based from the available images, the Lightsabers come in Jedi Master green and Padawan blue.

You may really have to rely on The Force more when using these though, since all won't have Wii MotionPlus support. Luke didn't need that targeting computer to nail the Death Star, so why should you worry about a better motion controller? I jest. As for the pricing, we'll give you an update once BDA sends word.
