Best Buy exclusive Let's Tap pad freaking sucks photo

Hey, you know that exclusive Limited Edition version of Let's Tap that Best Buy has? Yeah? It sucks. All you get is an extra piece of paper with the game's logo.

I know Jonathan Holmes brought this up the other night when he talked about it, but I had no clue how sh*tty the thing was until I saw the unboxing video from GiantBomb. Seriously?! What the hell? Since when is including a piece of paper count as a "Limited Edition"? The Wiimote barely even fits on the paper!

Check out the GiantBomb video after the break where they play Let's Tap using the Limited Edition pad. The GB crew also use various boxes to see what kind of box is best to play the game. Hopefully, you have a giant box sitting at home. Otherwise, you're not going to have any fun when playing Let's Tap.

Giant box ftw!

I bet BB won't let you exchange the game if it's defective if you lose that limited edition tap pad.

"DUDE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? THAT'S NOT SAFE!"
Hahahaha.

Surely a Xbox is the best tapping station!

Mac Pro and a giant box are hilarious ways to play this game.

Judging by the look of the game itself, I think the "pad" may actually be the best part of the deal...

Let's tap can be played using your own body , which is kinda of hilarious in a way.

But yeah fuck that sticker I'm using my cat.

That was hilarious. Those guys are great. But this brings up something that has always bugged me about the almighty motion control peripheral. In the long run, it's almost more work to try to get it to work than just using a damn controller. Don't get me wrong, I love my Wii, but seriously, why is it such hard work just to get a game to work right? Why didn't the American release come packaged in the box that the Japan version had?!? Retarded.

UK'ers actually get a good deal out of this one. My local GAME is selling Let's Tap for the budget price of £25, with two of those proper tapping boxes. It looked kind of nice.

Wow, even when they play it proper, it still sucks at detecting they're tapping.

I have to say I NEVER thought that tapping a box with a controller sitting on it would prove an iffy or inaccurate way to control an entire game.

NEVER.

Good thing the game isn't just a bunch of mini games that you'll lose interest in after 5 minutes.
