Wii Don’t See The Point

This just in, 22Moo now offers Ultra-Light i-Vision Video Eyewear compatible with the iPod Video, Zune, Xbox 360, and the Wii!

Wait, the Wii?

I'm sure the products are very nice and all. They certainly sound like something I would love to fool around with, and my girlfriend would love having back the living room TV, but are they seriously considering these for the Wii? First off there's the whole sensor bar issue. Hard to play without that. Even worse, we are taking users that have cause broken TVs, broken windows, bruises, possible black eyes, and basically blindfolding them? The concept is as dangerous as it is amusing to imagine. They should sell it with a pin the tail on the donkey mini-game.

22Moo guys, I realize you are just trying to ride on the Wii hype train here and that's completely understandable, but seriously - think before you market. Michael Fahey
