Talismoon's Solderless DVD Adapter for Xbox

Repairing your Xbox has become a whole lot cheaper and easier with the latest hook up from Talismoon! Now you can easily replace a failed DVD drive with the 8164 Solderless DVD Adapter. This lets you use an LG-8164 DVD drive, allowing your Xbox console to read CDs at 52x speed and DVDs at 16x speed, making it a whopping 8x faster than the OEM drive resulting in less wait time and more play time!

The LG-8164 DVD drive also reads a wider range of discs. The types include: CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+R, and original Xbox games that require the latest firmware upgrades. Once the adapter is installed, the DVD drive will work with Xbox console versions 1.0 – 1.6. From what I understand, you also need to have a modded Xbox to take advantage of this product.

In order to get this adapter installed, you don’t need any special tools. Just re-route the Xbox signals using included ribbons – and that’s it! It takes less than 5 minutes to complete, even for the inexperienced modder. Just plug and play!

You can add this cool new item to your cart for only £14.49 and get ready for faster Xbox gaming during this holiday season!

PSP In Touch Car Cradle Dock Lets You Play On The Go

Gamers play video games no matter where they are. Gamers sit in front of the console or PC at home, at a friend’s house, or spend countless amounts of quarters at the local arcade. But when it’s time to hit the road, out comes a handheld gaming device – whether it be a Sony PSP, a Nintendo DS, or even a cell phone. If you fit this description, and are an owner of a PlayStation Portable – READ ON!

Talismoon designed an innovative product to help PSP gamers on the go! Their latest PSP release is the PSP In Touch Car Cradle Dock – a hands-free cradle that mounts your PSP in your vehicle. It was manufactured with the highest quality materials, making it one of the longest lasting PSP vehicle products to date.

You can also keep your passengers entertained by making some of your favorite games available for them to try out while they wait for you to reach your destination.

Just stick this bad boy onto your dashboard, window, or any other flat surface in your vehicle and you’re ready to roll. Experience the magic for yourself by adding this sleek new item for only £11.49 today!

We added this hot selling item to our marketplace to give you a cheap and easy way to play the games and movies you paid for!

We are selling the Talismoon UMD Replacement Cases for £5.95! Included in this package are 3 UMD Replacement Cases and 1 polishing cloth.

Add a Glow to Your Xbox 360 with the Electro Twister Lightning Kit

The Game Train is kicking off November in full gear! One of our coolest new products for our Xbox 360 gamers is the Electro Twister Lightning Kit! This is the second version, developed by Talismoon, which works with Xbox models that have both 3 pin and 4 pin internal power plugs.

The Electro Twister Lightning Kit will allow you to accent, highlight, and bend light as you please. The lightning kit has the ability to bend around major console components, giving you the flexibility to customize as you wish.



With a low electrical current, the insulation will glow amazingly bright! In order to reduce lighting areas or to have a specific portion remain unlit, just cover that part with electrical tape or heat shrink. If you want to cut the Electro Twister down in size, you can use a pair of scissors, and then cover up the severed end with electrical tape.

Once you decide to have your lighting layout the way you want it, keep it in place with non-conductive tape or a drop of epoxy. Super glue is not recommended as making future adjustments or modifications may be more difficult.

The Electro Twister Lightning Kit includes 1.5m of glowing cable, 1 5v inverter, and 1 energizer Y cable – all you need to set this kit up! No soldering or additional tools are required! Snag your Electro Twister Lightning Kit in any of the two available colours: Blue or Green – each one for only £7.49!

Another Motion Sensing Option for the Xbox 360 Using the Talismoon Tilt Board

A few days ago, I posted about the Xbox 360 Bestilt Motion Sensing Sixaxis Modification Kit developed by XCM, which allows you to add the motion sensing function for your Xbox 360 controller. Today, I would like to present you with the Talismoon Xbox 360 Tilt Board! The Tilt Board is another product that will allow you to have that motion sensing feel which you get with the Playstation 3 and the Nintendo Wii.

The Tilt Board has the pre-built TiltTune technology. This technology will let you take control of the various functions of the motion sensing function, such as taking control of the tilt sensitivity, the Y-axis invert, the ability to turn the tilt function on or off at will, and allows you to adjust the zero degree angle, enabling you to play comfortably no matter how you are sitting or laying to play! Check out this video to see the amazing functions, as well as how it looks when playing a game:

Similar to the XCM Bestilt Motion Sensing Sixaxis Modification Kit, the Talismoon Tilt Board works by transferring the left analog stick controls into the motion sensing modification. Because games can be different, you have the option of seamlessly and effortlessly switching between the tilt control function and the analog stick function. This add-on is a small and convenient U-shaped product that has the Tilt Board control function buttons located on either side of the battery pack.

The Xbox 360 Talismoon Tilt Board has been designed for older wireless Xbox 360 controllers. Unfortunately, wired controllers and newer wireless Xbox 360 controllers are not compatible with this motion sensing technology. If this works for you, then follow this link for a step-by-step comprehensive installation guide (including how-to images). Installation is easy, as it only requires the soldering of 7 wires – that’s all!

If your controller battery ends up dying on you, you won’t have to worry about resetting your configuration as it will remain stored in the Tilt Board’s memory. Add the Talismoon Xbox 360 Tilt Board to your cart if you’re ready to add motion sensing technology today, or check out the Bestilt Modification Kit to see which one will suit your needs. Get ready to feel a much more improved gameplay with new Xbox 360 motion sensing technology!

The World's Easiest (and coolest?) Wii Mod


We'll shortly be getting in a brand series of products from Talismoon to let you customise your Wii even more. The Talismoon Wii Gate changes the LED colour of the front panel on your Wii, where you insert discs.

It's billed as the easiest Wii modification yet and, because you're not opening the internals of the case, only the front panel, it won’t void your warranty. We've included a set of Wii Gate instructions for you to get to grips with right here. As you can see, it’s an extremely easy four step process and everything you need to carry out the procedure is included in the package.


Initially, red and green colours will be available and we expect this range to expand even further. The full package includes a specialist screwdriver, the Wii Gate of your choice (including LEDs, plastic diffuser and black DVD curtain) and a set of instructions. At a low, low price of £4.99, watch out for these later this week!
