What's with all the kiddy videogame consoles?
« on: December 02, 2006, 08:35:51 AM »
Apparently, videogames are so hot right now it forced the pre-school/edu-taintment companies to create crappy kiddy videogame consoles in order to compete with the likes of the big boys.

I've already seen Leap frog handhelds, complete with touch screen controls (ala DS) and TV consoles. The funny thing? One of them boats "amazing graphics" and "great video" when everything is PSone quality at best.

But the funniest one of all is not a edu-taintment console. Its a videogame console called "Hyper scan". Its a videogame console that can scan cards and send the info into the game and vice versa.

If there is one thing the GBA E-reader card taught us is that this is a bothersome, messy gimmick so I smell FLOP!!

The point of this? Nothing, really. I just felt like making fun of these consoles...

At least they are teaching children something useful, so Jack Thompson can't point fingers.

everybody knows that Nintendos real reason for introducing video games on playing cards was to celeberate thier heritage.

I know another kiddy console, the Gamecube. That system really sucked and only 6 year olds played it.

All us cool kids play Madden and Grand Theft Auto on our PS2s.

More like that game kids play "Seven minutes in heaven" or something.  Never did it.  My closets never had any doors :S

Is there a rule that the people left in the closet for seven minutes cannot be of the same gender?

I wouldn't know, but I guess if that's the way the party tilts, then by all means, shake that SIXAXIS like you mean it.

Well the old batarang PS3 was all about that stuff...not so much with the SIXAXIS though since it can't even rumble.

Bill is right though.  Homosexual Kissing Games Extreme now on PS3
