I know, it's scary! And I swear to God, I PM'd a mod about this before EDIT: It's "Do the dance, how you move is a mystery! Do the dance"... something | |
That...is kinda freaky *shudders* | |
That is one fantastic idea! I can see my cousin have the time of his life with this. | |
The game itself actually looks pretty high-quality (I don't want to say "good"). Still, it's just another gimmick for what looks like another gimmicky Wii game. Although I guess kids don't care how gimmicky something is. Anyway, I'll have that song in my head for a while. | |
Well I'm not surprised Is it wrong that I kinda liked the music? | |
My following thoughts in this order: This is creepy | |
... the hell? I think I have lost all hope of the Wii ever seeming like a normal console again. | |
Some of those ideas look quite good, if there's enough of a game to it it might actually work. | |
I would have said Wii balls, oh well. | |
It is a nice idea for the kiddies but I will give it a pass. I play games to mellow out, I do not want bright smiley things trying to make me be happy. | |
God, I dread selling this thing at Best Buy. People will think I'm an idiot when I have to say anything about it. | |
Gah, that thing is going to haunt my nightmares. | |
The kid and the controller are both a little creepy, but have to say the song is kind of catchy in a stuck-in-your-head all day kind of way. | |
The Wii is stupid. This just proves it. | |
It would make more sense as mystery but if you listen to the lyrics right as the trailer ends and that kid is rocking the.... creepy... thing... they really do sound like they are saying misery. How... Swedish? | |
Why does the carry case look like the egg from Alien? And why do you make it work by shoving your remote controller down the mouth of one of the most terrifying creations I have yet seen on God's green earth? | |
Holy crap that's really bizarre. looks like it might be mildly entertaining though. | |
In before Borat quote. Seriously, how many attachments and peripherals is this thing going to have? | |
its kinda weird that people dont know this song, its been such a big hit in clubs in 2008 i think :) | |
This is like, the red-headed step child version of the Natal....not that the Natal is any better but this is just bat-shit crazy.
No it's not. In fact, it may be the only reason we all could sit through watching the entire video.
Cruel and unusual punishment, good luck to you. | |
I could imagine this becoming very popular amoung little kids. I might even want it just for the plush! | |
Wow it's a real song, cool. | |
| |
Will it be banned in Australia? | |
That's more disturbing than that offensive pictures site I saw. | |
Why does it makes me remember Red and Stimpy? Oh well, maybe my cousin's kids will like this. | |
..o.o What the hell was that? | |
oh, thats for the FIFA '11 game coming out soon. on topic: well...........if you dont want jr. to break the controler it seems like a good idea, and the game seems easy enough for the 0-6 demographic, only problem I can see coming from it is "child chokes self on adorable fuzzy animal......thing's....... elastic bands." | |
What. The. Hell. The thing looks creepy, the song was irritating and I have no idea what the crap they were saying. And what was with the pins? What is this the little kids monster Wii version of The World Ends with You? | |
I'm thirty years old, and I want to play with this toy. I can't believe it took this long to get people interested in interactive action-figures again. I used to have and old Captain Power playset that let you shoot at these old CGI monsters on Saturday morning while Dad put in his ear plugs and slept for another four hours. Good times. | |
I want this to be good. I want this to be really good. It just looks like it could be a lot of fun! . . .Wha? I'm 28, why do you ask? >_> | |
This little bugger is just waiting to become everyone's favorite new drinking game. A little bit of vodka mixers and this thing will have everybody laughing and having a swell time. | |
I thought this was another fake Wii game joke, oh God! I was really hoping this was another stunt from EA for Dante's Inferno, I like the idea though (or maybe the music made it worth watching.) | |

WiiWaa is the Strangest Wii Controller Ever
WiiWaa is the perfect way to look like even more of an oddball while playing the Wii.
If people from the 1960s somehow stumbled into a time portal that brought them to the current day, and then happened to peer into a window where they saw a group engaged in a game of Wii Sports Resort, they'd probably be quite confused. Now, courtesy of Zoink Games' WiiWaa, those same people would think the future of humanity had gone completely bonkers.
WiiWaa is a game played by shoving a Wii remote into a medium sized stuffed animal and shaking it about. When this was first done with a baby doll, I wasn't amused. Now that the same technique is being used with a freaky stuffed animal, I approve.
The game looks similar to Rayman Raving Rabbids, with a bunch of mini-games and platforming elements. You're supposed to toss the WiiWaa up into the air, shake it around, and dangle it from its stretchy antennae/ears to collect items and move it through the levels. It should be fun for kids, but is a strange alien interface nonetheless.
I must say, the song accompanying the trailer for WiiWaa is probably the most entertainment value I will personally get out of the game, being an adult. Zoink Games is based in Sweden, so I'm likely being extremely ignorant, but what the hell are they saying in that song? Every time I think they're going to say one thing it turns into something else (though again, I'm probably just being ignorant of a foreign language). Here's what I've got so far: "Do a little dance. The way you move is a misery. Do a little dance. You're always there for me, dickin' me." I can't even begin to figure out what's going on at the beginning. If this is a mix of Swedish and English, or just one of the two, I'd love to find out. Catchy song though!
