Those knockoff artists in China sure take advantage of the copyright laws. Just recently, they have announced the Vii, an obvious copy of the Wii. Personally, I think it looks like Nyko decided to make a new controller for the Wii and they packaged the whole thing as a new product.

The free games that come with it are also pathetic. “Fry Egg”, “Catch Fish”, and “Come On” are only three of the many games that you get on your free Vii games disk. Why? You may ask yourself. So did I. Some knockoff team somewhere in polluted China decided that the average person cannot spend $250 on a genuine Wii. This is very true. They cooked up a Vii and priced it at only $125, half as much money. There’s only one major flaw. Where do you put in the games?
