Took them long enough, didn't it? After months of waiting, we finally have some cheap, terrible Wiimote knock-off on the shelves of Walmart, in the form of four LCD sports 'games' in an inconvenient Wiimote-shaped case. For seven bucks, you can be the proud owner of these cutting edge gaming systems that will not only provide you with seconds of fun, but also advertise motion controls! What? YES! These things actually state on the package that there is motion control.
Basically, the motion is you pressing a button with your finger to control the game. But hey ... that's still a motion, right?
4 Color Rebellion took posted pictures of this shameless, prideless pap, which are included below. They really are beyond pathetic, these ones. I don't even see how you can play them right with such a stupid shape. Sad thing is, you just know that an idiot mother is going to be fooled by this and get some kid's hopes up. Do not want, Walmart, do not want.

I guess the whole "100 games" part really sold him on the idea. The thing was, 15 of the games were Super Mario Bros, each with a different, nonsensical title.
(I never had the heart to tell him.)
@Riser: I've got one of those too. Love the dang thing. It's amazing how therapeutic a few rounds of NES Pinball (or as it was titled in mine: "Funball27") are when you've got insomnia. And I mean that in all honesty. Zonks me right out.
Those NES-emulator N64 controller things sound awesome btw. Do want!
I still don't know if I have played all the games on it or not. A lot of the games were basically just random numbers. Now if you will excuse me, I'm going to go play Bros.795324582.
The target is parents looking for gifts. Parents who know next to nothing about video games. If a mom or dad glances at an actual WiiMote in newspaper, then see this in stores, they might think it's the thing their kids are always talking about.
Sorry, just had to get that out of the way before someone else did!
Email me at ( @gmail.com ) if you can't find one locally, every fucking mall in Houston sells these things. I can get you one.
There's one in a mall near me that runs their booth directly across from Gamestop.
Lame = youtubing your Wal-Mart Adventures
No one beats the POLYSTATION!
Is this honestly surprising? As long as there are people who can't tell between games and knockoffs, this will continue on.
