I got a sticker from my copy Sex and Fury so I stuck it on the Wii. I was laughed at mercilessly. I took it off, but not due to the laughter, or humiliation. I just took it off.
I replaced it with Vincent Gallo's "When" CD on one side and "36 Chambers" on the other side. I think it looks awesome.
I have too much time on my hands.

That is definitely something I would normally consider tacky. However, that is one incredibly accurate Bowser. It would have been enough to inspire tears, however, if the side had been black crystals with a red crystal smash logo. I know the red/black scheme is a bit overdone, but Super Smash Brothers was rocking that color combination way back when. The blue and white just doesn't feel right, and it would have been nice if it didn't look so much like it was a Super Mario Galaxy Wii.

Honestly I don't like it. Yeah given that they did a great job with the design but shinny little crystals is not the way to go. I think maybe with some air brush work and the Brawl logo with a high gloss finish (not t-shirt air brush but high end auto air brush) it would have looked better. If I had won that you would find it on ebay since I wouldn't display something like that in my home.

i don't think it needed to be completely covered in crystal junk, just mario & bowser, also I like the idea that Jeremy said about airbrushing a design. All that bedazzle just screams "LOOK AT ME, I'M CUSTOM!!!" I don't like that, I like little customs.

My big thing is if you're packing away your Wii, that somehow this thing will shed crystals like no tomorrow, and sooner or later Bowser will look like a war amps candidate.

2 Complaints:
1. Why does it look like a Wii from November for SMG with "The Brawl to end them all" add on it.
2. Kinda Tacky...I already have a Wii so I would maybe sell it...if it was worth it. If not, id keep it in a very secretive place 'til it was worth it.

Too gaudy to be anything but terrible...Perhaps if it were painted on?
