Title: A new, revolutionary console has come out in China! It's...
Post by: Zovistograt on December 07, 2007, 04:39:00 PM
...the Vii!

no, really.  The Vii.

Engadget article (http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/keepin-it-real-fake-part-lxxxii-the-chintendo-vii/)

might be a bit old, but then again, there's no thread here about it O_o

This is better than that cheap G&W-style Wiimote game though.

I've seen many things on this.  From what I understand, it's not even really a "console".  It's kind of like those retro "Atari" joysticks you can buy that have the games built in.

There's no disc drive or anything.  All the games this thing will ever play are built in when you buy it.

Again, from what I understand of it...

The same reason everything like this comes out. Haven't you ever seen knock-off products like this? This intent is that people will see the resemblance in name and modle and buy it instead.

There is an alternate Vii available now. The new version seems to be a hybrid between the PS3 and the Wii. It lacks the infamous Fry Egg game, though.  :(

I think that is pretty much a rip off of the Wii. Vii? What does that even mean in Chineese?  :| Even if it is an Atari Game thing built in, it looks and sounds exactily like the Wii.

Maybe not. Products like this come out all the time, and action is only taken occasionally.

What a great idea those Chinese came up with!

Definitely doesn't look like a cheap imitation.
